Magnetic response of nonmagnetic impurities in cuprates.

A theory of the local magnetic response of a nonmagnetic impurity in a doped antiferromagnet, as relevant to the normal-state in cuprates, is presented. It is based on the assumption of the overdamped collective mode in the bulk system and on the evidence that equal-time spin correlations are only weakly renormalized in the vicinity of the impurity. The theory relates the Kondo-like behavior of the local susceptibility to the anomalous temperature dependence of the bulk magnetic susceptibility.

Scaling of the magnetic response in doped antiferromagnets.

A theory of the anomalous omega/T scaling of the dynamic magnetic response in cuprates at low doping is presented. It is based on the memory function representation of the dynamical spin susceptibility in a doped antiferromagnet where the damping of the collective mode is constant and large, whereas the equal-time spin correlations saturate at low T. Exact diagonalization results within the t-J model are shown to support assumptions. Consequences, for both the scaling function and the normalization amplitude, are well in agreement with neutron scattering results.

Reactive hall response

The zero temperature Hall constant R(H), described by reactive (nondissipative) conductivities, is analyzed within linear response theory. It is found that in a certain limit R(H) is directly related to the density dependence of the Drude weight, implying a simple picture for the change of sign of charge carriers in the vicinity of a Mott-Hubbard transition. This novel formulation is applied to the calculation of R(H) in quasi-one-dimensional and ladder prototype interacting electron systems.
