Abstract
We present an extensive numerical study of the Hubbard model on the doped chain, both in the weak coupling and the infinite- limit. Due to the special unit-cell topology, this system displays a rich variety of phases as a function of hole doping away from half-filling. Near half-filling spiral states develop in the weak-coupling regime, while Nagaoka itinerant ferromagnetism is observed in the infinite- limit. For higher doping, the system phase-separates before reaching a Mott insulating phase of short-range resonating-valence-bond states at . Moreover, for we observe a crossover, which anticipates the Luttinger-liquid behavior for .
