Stoner-enhanced magnetic susceptibility

ID: stoner-enhanced-magnetic-susceptibility

Let be the single-spin density of states per site per energy, and let the on-site Hubbard model repulsion have energy . For a weak uniform magnetic field , the half-splitting of the two spin bands is , where . Constant density of states gives . Therefore
This is the response per site; multiplying by the site number density gives the dimensionless SI volume magnetic susceptibility. With spin-summed density of states , the denominator is . Its vanishing is the mean-field Stoner criterion. The unpolarized linear-response expression is stable only for .
