Abstract

Single-wall carbon nanotubes with on-site interaction Ut are studied by a controlled renormalization group method. When formulated as a system of Nf flavors of interacting Dirac fermions, the effective model at generic filling resembles a set of quasi-1D Hubbard chains. For the undoped (Ny,Ny) armchair and the (Nx,Nx) zigzag with Nx=3n, specific mappings to the two-chain Hubbard model at half filling with effective interaction ueff=U/Ny and 2U/Nx are found from this more general equivalence. The phase diagrams of the (3,3) armchair and the (6,6) zigzag at generic fillings are studied and compared as an example.
