Abstract: Using the field-theory approach combining bosonization and renormalization group, we investigate the weak-coupling phase diagram of the unconventional Hubbard chain, where in addition to a bond–charge interaction ( X ), the Hubbard interaction differs between odd ( U o ) and even ( U e ) sites. The result shows that at quarter filling, the unequal Hubbard repulsion has a great influence on low-energy charge excitations. For the attractive X , the umklapp scattering always exists, and the ground state only exhibits a spin-gapless insulating phase with dominant spin-density-wave correlations. For the repulsive X , the umklapp processes only take place if both U o and U e are greater than 8 X cos ( π / 4 ) , and the phase diagram consists of three phases, a metallic phase with the spin-gapped singlet superconducting correlation, and two insulating phases characterized by the spin-density-wave and charge-density-wave correlations. We also present the phase diagram of the standard t - U - X chain in the case of non-half filling. • We study the 1D modified t-U-X model with unequal on-site interaction. • The different on-site repulsion induces relevant umklapp process at quarter filling. • The study supplements understanding of quantum properties of 1D correlated systems.
