Nonresonant inelastic light scattering in the Hubbard model

Inelastic light scattering from electrons is a symmetry-selective probe of the charge dynamics within correlated materials. Many measurements have been made on correlated insulators, and recent exact solutions in large dimensions explain a number of anomalous features found in experiments. Here we focus on the correlated metal, as described by the Hubbard model away from half filling. We can determine the $B_{1\mathrm{g}}$ Raman response and the inelastic x-ray scattering along the Brillouin-zone diagonal exactly in the large dimensional limit. We find a number of interesting features in the light-scattering response, which should be able to be seen in correlated metals such as the heavy fermions.
