Abstract
We investigate the half-filled Hubbard model on an isotropic triangular lattice with the variational cluster approximation. By decreasing the on-site repulsion U (or equivalently increasing pressure) we go from a phase with long-range, three-sublattice, spiral magnetic order, to a nonmagnetic Mott insulating phase--a spin liquid--and then, for U less or similar to 6.7t, to a metallic phase. Clusters of sizes 3, 6, and 15 with open boundary conditions are used in these calculations, and an extrapolation to infinite size is argued to lead to a disordered phase at U = 8t, but to a spiral order at U greater or similar to 12.
