The study about magnetic properties of strongly correlated electrons has been an problem of interest in physics by the great technological importance of various materials with this characteristic. A well-known theoretical approach, known as the Hubbard model, has been used in an attempt to describe such phenomena. This model considers the interactions and electron mobility in a simplified way for describing phenomena like itinerant magnetism and the metal-insulator transition. In this study were analyzed the thermodynamic clusters properties of structures with fcc lattice symmetry containing 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 sites. An exact numerical diagonalization method was used, where the subspaces of the problem were separatly analyzed and put together on, which is a procedure that reduces the processing data time. In order to improve the diagram of quantum states also carried out a ground state analysis of the clusters, known in the literature and obtained from systems with 4, 5 and 6 sites. On this subject a new diagram was developed showing the quantum states transition using the Lanczos method, applied to clusters with 4 to 8 sites in this case. Finally, a comparison was made between the thermodynamic properties and the results found in the new quantum state diagram. The agreement between them is good.
