Spin-fluctuations in the quarter-filled Hubbard ring : significances to   LiV$_2$O$_4$
  Using the quantum Monte Carlo method, we investigate the spin dynamics of itinerant electrons in the one-dimensional Hubbard system. Based on the model calculation, we have studied the spin-fluctuations in the quarter-filled metallic Hubbard ring, which is aimed at the vanadium ring or chain defined along corner-sharing tetrahedra of LiV$_2$O$_4$, and found the dramatic changes of magnetic responses and spin-fluctuation characteristics with the temperature. Such results can explain the central findings in the recent neutron scattering experiment for LiV$_2$O$_4$.
