Partial Dynamical Symmetry in Quantum Hamiltonians with Higher-Order Terms

Abstract

A generic procedure is proposed to construct many-body quantum Hamiltonians with partial dynamical symmetry. It is based on a tensor decomposition of the Hamiltonian and allows the construction of a hierarchy of interactions that have selected classes of solvable states. The method is illustrated in the SO(6) limit of the interacting boson model of atomic nuclei and applied to the nucleus 196Pt.

Partial dynamical symmetry in Bose-Fermi systems

We generalize the notion of partial dynamical symmetry (PDS) to a system of interacting bosons and fermions. In a PDS, selected states of the Hamiltonian are solvable and preserve the symmetry exactly, while other states are mixed. As a first example of such novel symmetry construction, spectral features of the odd-mass nucleus $^{195}\mathrm{Pt}$ are analyzed.

Boson Models with Interactions of Arbitrary Order

P. Van Isacker

The paper considers quantal many-boson systems that are described by a rotationally invariant and boson-number conserving Hamiltonian. The properties of a generic model are studied which treats N bosons of p different kinds with non-zero angular momenta l_1,l_2,...,l_p, possibly augmented with a (number of) scalar s boson(s). The order k of the interaction between the bosons is arbitrary and closed formulas are given for matrix elements between N-boson states for any k if p=1 and p=2. A recursive procedure is defined for arbitrary k and p. With the expressions derived in the paper it is possible to express symbolically a Hamiltonian matrix element between N-boson states as a linear combination of k-body interaction matrix elements. More generally, the formulas allow the evaluation of matrix elements of tensor operators that are not necessarily scalar nor boson-number conserving. The numerical implementation of the formalism is discussed and illustrated with a few examples.

Partial Dynamical Symmetry at Critical Points of Quantum Phase Transitions

A. Leviatan

We show that partial dynamical symmetries can occur at critical points of quantum phase transitions, in which case underlying competing symmetries are conserved exactly by a subset of states, and mix strongly in other states. Several types of partial dynamical symmetries are demonstrated with the example of critical-point Hamiltonians for first- and second-order transitions in the framework of the interacting boson model, whose dynamical symmetries correspond to different shape phases in nuclei.

Lie algebra deformations and the exact solutions of integrable quantum many-body systems

Yuan-Harng Lee

In this body of work, we will examine two classes of Lie algebra deformations and their appli- cation to the exact solutions of various quantum integrable systems. The first class of Lie algebra deformations are polynomial deformations of the A1 Lie algebra. We construct unitary representations of these algebras in terms of bosonic and spin operators as well as obtain their single-variable differential operator realizations. Using these results, we obtain the exact Bethe ansatz solutions of a variety of quantum integrable systems such as the Bose-Hubbard and Tavis-Cummings model. The second class of Lie algebra deformations are the so-called quasi-Gaudin algebra. This algebra was introduced to construct integrable systems which are only quasi-exactly solvable. Using a suitable representation this algebra, we obtain partial solutions for a class of bosonic models which do not preserve U(1) symmetry
