Onset of charge incompressibility and Mott gaps in the Honeycomb-Lattice SU(4) Hubbard Model: Lessons for Twisted Bilayer Graphene systems

We use finite temperature strong coupling expansions to calculate thermodynamic properties of the Honeycomb-lattice SU(4) Hubbard model. We present numerical results for various properties including chemical potential, compressibility, entropy and specific heat as a function of temperature and density at several $U/t$ values. We study the onset of charge incompressibility and Mott gaps as the temperature is lowered at integer densities. In the incompressible Mott regime, the expansions are recast into a high temperature expansion for a generalized spin model with SU(4) symmetry, which is then used to study the convergence of strong coupling expansions in t/U. We discuss lessons that can be drawn from high temperature properties of a simple Hubbard model regarding Twisted Bilayer Graphene (TBG) and other magic-angle flat-band systems.
