Abstract
We consider a narrow one-dimensional tight-binding chain with intra-atomic Coulomb repulsions described in the Hubbard model. The electrons at each site are furthermore assumed to be coupled to a high-frequency local oscillator. In the limit where the oscillator frequency is large compared to the bandwidth, and in the extreme-band-narrowing regime, for various electron densities, we find that: the half-filled-band ground state is an antiferromagnetic insulator; the one-third-filled-band ground state is a diamagnetic insulator; and the one-quarter-filled-band ground state is a weakly coupled system of bound singlet pairs somewhat reminiscent of superconductivity.
