Abstract
The magnetic states occurring in the two-dimensional Hubbard model in the vicinity of half-filling of the conduction band are studied in the case of weak correlations, using Hartree-Fock theory. It is shown that at zero temperature the commensurate antiferromagnetic state is unstable against domain-wall formation for arbitrarily small deviations from half-filling. The resulting incommensurate antiferromagnet remains initially insulating. The predictions of the model for the polarization and modulation wave vector of the incommensurate antiferromagnet are discussed.
