摘要
We use the density-matrix renormalization group to study the single-particle and two-particle correlation functions of spinless fermions in the ground state of a quarter filled ladder. This ladder consists of two chains having an in-chain extended Coulomb interaction reaching to third neighbor and coupled by interchain hopping. Within our short numerical coherence lengths, typically reaching 10 to 20 sites, we find a strong renormalization of the interchain hopping and the existence of a dimensional crossover at smaller interactions. We also find power exponents for single-particle hopping and interchain polarization consistent with the single chain. The total occupation correlation function has a larger power exponent and shows signs of a crossover from incoherent fermion hopping to coherent particle-hole pair motion between chains. We believe the ladder is gapless.
