摘要
In a system where selective Mott localization is realized, some electrons show a gap to charge excitations while others do not. A hybridization between these two kind of electrons will lead to a smoothening of this sharp difference and can even bring the system back to a complete delocalization. We show here that there is a large region of parameters at finite hybridization where the selective localization persists and the system shows a partial filling of the selective gap with incoherent states, giving rise to a pseudogap. This result is illustrated here in a two-orbital Hubbard model with Hund's coupling, but is based on quite general assumptions and should hold for a larger class of systems, and possibly be a paradigm for the pseudogap mechanism in cuprates.
