why do you think there is something wrong?
In order to understand whether J0 makes any difference just try without it
and compare the results.

strictly speaking they are not the same thing (unless J = J0 = 0). here is
the reference for J0: PHYSICAL REVIEW B 84, 115108 (2011). But I don't know
how similar the results would be.
