Abstract
We study models of strongly correlated electrons in one-and two dimensions. We exactly diagonalize small clusters with general boundary conditions (BC) and integrate over all possible BC. This technique recovers the kinetic energy part of the (extended lattice) Hamiltonianexactly in a grand-canonical formulation. A continuous range of particle densities may be described with this technique and the momentum space can be probed for arbitrary momenta. For the Hubbard Hamiltonian we recover details of the Mott-insulating behaviour for the momentum distribution function at half filling, both in 1D and 2D. Off half-filling the shape of thecanonical Fermi surface is strongly distorted in 2D with respect to thegrand canonical Fermi surface. The shape of the grand canonical Fermi surface obtained by this finite-size technique reduces in the weak-coupling limit exactly to that of the infinite-lattice Fermi sea.

We have confirmed this by diagonalizing clusters with boundary conditions which correspond tok values very near to the Fermi edge

In this study we considered only the one-band Hubbard model, since we wanted to connect to theU=0 limit, recovered exactly by the boundary condition technique. The generalization to thet-J model is straightforward
