Popis: The influence of dispersion-less quantum optical phonons on the phase diagram of a quarter-filled Hubbard chain is studied using the Density-matrix renormalization group technique. The ground state phase diagram is obtained for frequencies corresponding to the intra-molecular vibrations in organic conductors. For high vibrational modes the system is only slightly affected by the electron-phonons coupling. It remains in a Luttinger liquid phase as long as the electronic repulsion is larger than the polaronic binding energy. For low vibrational modes the phase diagram is very rich. A noticeable point is the existence of a $4k_F$ CDW phase for small values of the correlation strength. For realistic values of the electron repulsion and of the electron-phonons coupling constant a large phonons-mediated reduction of the Luttinger liquid parameter $K_\rho$ was found compared to the pure electronic model.
