Abstract

The one-band Hubbard model is considered in the slave-boson formulation first introduced by Kotliar and Ruckenstein. It is shown that a mean-field approximation, where broken-symmetry states appropriate for a bipartite lattice are allowed, leads to a quantitative agreement with quantum Monte Carlo results for local observables over a wide range of interactions (0U\ensuremath{\le}20t) and doping (0n〉\ensuremath{\le}1). Thus, our saddle-point solutions constitute an excellent starting point for a systematic treatment of fluctuations.
