Abstract
The mean field type approach based on the self-consistent consideration of an effective field created by electron transfer is developed for a description of thermodynamics of the Hubbard type models with an infinitely large on-site repulsion. This procedure, formulated by Izyumov et al, is an extension of the recently proposed generalized random phase approximation(GRPA). Within this approach, the thermodynamic properties of the two-sublattice pseudospin-electron model (the Hubbard model with local anharmonicity) are studied. Such a model can be used for a description of dielectric properties of YBaCuO-type superconductors along c-axis; pseudospins represent anharmonic motions of apical oxygens O4. It is shown that there are either phase transitions in the model with jumps of the mean values of a pseudospin and of electron concentration (in the $\mu=const$ regime) or the phase separation (in the $n=const$ regime). The phase transitions or phase separation are caused by pseudospin-pseudospin interaction as well as by electron transfer (the latter results in appearing of effective interaction between pseudospins). The possibility of the ferroelectric type ordering of pseudospins is investigated.
