Abstract

We present a quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) study of the one-dimensional periodic Anderson model at noninteger filling, i.e., a one-dimensional version of a heavy fermion metal. For this special system the minus-sign problem turns out to be greatly reduced, so that accurate QMC simulations for temperatures as low as 1% of the conduction-electron bandwidth are feasible. The single-particle Green's function shows an intricate network of low-energy bands at low temperature, with a Fermi-surface volume that comprises both c and f electrons. As the temperature increases the system evolves through two distinct crossover temperatures into a very simple band structure with one free c-electron band and a disconnected upper and lower Hubbard band for f electrons. The f electrons thus drop out of the Fermi surface volume as the temperature increases.
