Abstract

We study the stability of the dilute Bose-Fermi and Bose-Bose mixtures with repulsive interactions in one and two dimensions in terms of the renormalization group. For the Bose-Fermi mixture, we show that the uniform mixture is stable against de-mixing in the dilute limit. For the Bose-Bose mixture, we give the stability conditions in the dilute limit. As a byproduct, we also calculate the critical temperature for the superfluid phase of the two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixture in the extremely dilute limit.

Stability of low-dimensional multicomponent dilute Bose gases

Alexei K. Kolezhuk

I show that in low dimensions the interactions in dilute Bose mixtures are strongly renormalized, which leads to a considerable change of stability conditions compared to the mean-field results valid in the high-density regime. Estimates are given for the two-component Bose-Hubbard model and for the $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}--^{41}\mathrm{K}$ mixture.

Second root of dilute Bose-Fermi mixtures

Orest Hryhorchak, V. Pastukhov

Abstract We discuss an equilibrium mean-field properties of mixtures consisting of bosons and spin-polarized fermionic atoms with a point-like interaction in an arbitrary dimension 2 < d < 4 . Particularly, besides the standard weak-coupling limit of the system with slightly depleted Bose condensate and almost ideal Fermi gas, we discuss the (meta)stable phase with dimers composed exactly of one boson and one fermion. The peculiarities of the fermion-dimer and the boson-dimer three-body effective interactions and their impact on the thermodynamic stability of the dilute Bose-Fermi mixtures are elucidated.

Dilute Bose gas in two dimensions

Daniel S. Fisher, Pierre C. Hohenberg

The weakly interacting Bose gas in two dimensions is considered in the dilute limit ${n}^{1/2}$a\ensuremath{\ll}1, where n is the particle density and a is the range of the potential. The standard many-body perturbation theory for this system has two separate divergences: the first, associated with classical phase fluctuations, is responsible for the vanishing of the long-range order; the second is quantum mechanical and is connected with the vanishing of the scattering t matrix at long wavelengths and low energies. An earlier diagrammatic theory of Popov, which provides a consistent description of the system in the dilute limit, is rederived heuristically from a quasiparticle picture, and also using the renormalization group. It is shown that the superfluid transition temperature is ${T}_{c}$\ensuremath{\approxeq}4\ensuremath{\pi}(${\ensuremath{\Elzxh}}^{2}$/2m)n/[ln ln(1/${\mathrm{na}}^{2}$)], and the condition of validity of the dilute limit is ln ln(1/${\mathrm{na}}^{2}$)\ensuremath{\gg}1. The connection to the dilute Bose gas in dimensions d>2 and the universal behavior beyond the extreme asymptotic low-density domain are also discussed.

Collective Excitations of Dilute Bose-Fermi Superfluid Mixtures

Bernhard Hikaru Valtan, Munehiro Nishida, Susumu Kurihara

Using the effective action formalism, we investigate collective excitations of a dilute mixture of a Bose gas and a two component Fermi gas when both bosons and fermions have undergone superfluid transitions. We show that there is a repulsion between Bogoliubov and Anderson modes, which has important implications including disappearance of boson superfluidity. We derive an analytic expression for the long-wavelength dispersion relation of the mixture at zero temperature and give a condition for the instability. We also numerically calculate the damping rate due to boson-fermion interaction at finite temperatures and show that the two modes are stable at sufficiently low temperatures.

Superfluid Fermi-Fermi mixture: Phase diagram, stability, and soliton formation

Sadhan K. Adhikari

We study the phase diagram for a dilute Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superfluid Fermi-Fermi mixture (of distinct mass) at zero temperature using energy densities for the superfluid fermions in one (1D), two (2D), and three (3D) dimensions. We also derive the dynamical time-dependent nonlinear Euler-Lagrange equation satisfied by the mixture in one dimension using this energy density. We obtain the linear stability conditions for the mixture in terms of fermion densities of the components and the interspecies Fermi-Fermi interaction. In equilibrium there are two possibilities. The first is that of a uniform mixture of the two components, the second is that of two pure phases of two components without any overlap between them. In addition, a mixed and a pure phase, impossible in 1D and 2D, can be created in 3D. We also obtain the conditions under which the uniform mixture is stable from an energetic consideration. The same conditions are obtained from a modulational instability analysis of the dynamical equations in 1D. Finally, the 1D dynamical equations for the system are solved numerically and by variational approximation (VA) to study the bright solitons of the system for attractive interspecies Fermi-Fermi interaction in 1D. The VA is found to yield good agreement to the numerical result for the density profile and chemical potential of the bright solitons. The bright solitons are demonstrated to be dynamically stable. The experimental realization of these Fermi-Fermi bright solitons seems possible with present setups.

Stability of Bose-Fermi mixtures in two dimensions: A lowest-order constrained variational approach

Anonymous, L. Pisani, P. Pieri

We investigate the problem of mechanical stability in two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures at zero temperature, focusing on systems with a tunable Bose-Fermi (BF) interaction and a weak but finite boson-boson (BB) repulsion. The analysis is carried out within the framework of the lowest-order constrained variational (LOCV) approach, which allows for a nonperturbative treatment of strong interspecies correlations while retaining analytical transparency. The BF interaction is modeled by a properly regularized attractive contact potential, enabling the exploration of both the attractive and repulsive energy branches. We determine the minimal BB repulsion required to ensure mechanical stability of the mixture by evaluating the inverse compressibility matrix over the full range of BF coupling strengths, within the domain of validity of the LOCV approximation. The interaction contribution to the energy is benchmarked against available experimental data and quantum Monte Carlo results in the single-impurity limit, showing good agreement. Our analysis reveals how the critical BB coupling depends on interaction strength, density imbalance, and mass ratio. In particular, we find that mixtures with equal boson and fermion masses exhibit enhanced stability, requiring the smallest BB repulsion to prevent mechanical instability. In this case, a relatively small BB interaction is sufficient to stabilize attractive mixtures for all values of the BF interaction. These results provide a theoretical framework for assessing stability conditions in experimentally realizable two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures with tunable interactions.
