We have studied correlation functions of the one-dimensional Hubbard model using the density-matrix numerical renormalization-group approach. The singularity exponents of the momentum distribution at {ital k}={ital k}{sub {ital F}} and 3{ital k}{sub {ital F}}, as well as the power-law singularity of the spin-correlation function, are computed for large {ital U} ({ital U}/{ital t}=10{sup 3}). The momentum-distribution exponent at {ital k}={ital k}{sub {ital F}} and the spin-correlation exponent are in agreement with the analytic results, while the calculated exponent for momentum distribution at {ital k}=3{ital k}{sub {ital F}} is about 3/4, which disagrees with the analytically predicted value 9/8. We also discuss several techniques for an accurate calculation of the correlation functions.
