Abstract
The velocity of long-wavelength spin waves for the two-dimensional Hubbard model on a square lattice at half-filling is calculated using the variational Monte Carlo method with a Gutzwiller-type wave function. We show that the result from the Random Phase Approximation (RPA) for the spin wave velocity can also be found as the square root of the ratio of the helicity modulus and the perpendicular susceptibility as calculated in the Hartree-Fock approximation (HFA). Since the Gutzwiller wave function improves upon the HFA, our result for the spin wave velocity improves upon the RPA result. For the on-site repulsion U between 3 and 12 times the hopping integral t the spin wave velocity increases by 34 to 15% compared to the RPA result.
