Resistivity minimum emerges in Anderson impurity model modified with Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev interaction

Abstract
We investigate a modified Anderson model at the large-N limit, where the Coulomb interaction is replaced by the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev random interaction. The resistivity of conduction electron ρ c has a minimum value around temperature T^\star, which is similar to the Kondo system, but the impurity electron's density of state A d(ω) demonstrates no sharp-peak like the Kondo resonance around the Fermi surface. This provides a counterintuitive example where resistivity minimum exists without Kondo resonance. The impurity electron's entropy S d and specific heat capacity C_v show a crossover from Fermi liquid to a non-Fermi liquid behavior dependent on temperature. The system is a Fermi liquid at TT^\star, and then becomes a Fermi gas at sufficiently high temperatures T\gg T^\star. The non-Fermi liquid at the intermediate-T regime does not occur in the standard Anderson model. We also make a renormalization group analysis, which confirms the crossover from Fermi liquid to the non-Fermi behavior. It is emphasized that the resistivity minimum emerges in our model when the system behaves as a non-Fermi liquid rather than Fermi liquid, which provides an alternative example showing resistivity minimum in condensed matter physics. -
