Abstract

By applying the Bogoliubov transformations and through the introduction of the Bargmann-Hilbert spaces, we obtain analytic representations of solutions to the driven Rabi model without ${\cal Z}_2$ symmetry, and the 2-photon and two-mode quantum Rabi models. In each case, transcendental function is analytically derived whose zeros give the energy spectrum of the model. The zeros can be numerically found by standard root-search techniques.

Applying Bogoliubov transformations and Bargmann-Hilbert spaces, we obtain analytic representations of solutions to the 2-photon and two-mode quantum Rabi models. In each case, a transcendental function is analytically derived whose zeros give the energy spectrum of the model. The zeros can be numerically found by standard root-search techniques. We also present analytic solution to the driven Rabi model with broken ${\cal Z}_2$ symmetry.

Full spectrum of the two-photon and the two-mode quantum Rabi models

Anselme F. Dossa, Gabriel Y. H. Avossevou

This paper is concerned with the rigorous analytical determination of the spectrum of the two-photon and the two-mode quantum Rabi models. To reach this goal, we exploit the hidden symmetries in these models by means of the unitary and similarity transformations in addition to the Bargmann-Fock space description. In each case, the purely quantum mechanical problem of the Rabi model studied is reduced to solutions for differential equations. This eventually gives a third-order differential equation for each of these models, which is reduced to a second-order differential equation by additional transformations. The analytical expressions of the wave functions describing the energy levels are obtained in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions.

Generic two-mode quantum Rabi model: analytical energies and degeneracies

Li J, Qing‐Hu Chen, Qiongtao Xie

Abstract We present an exact analytical solution of a generic two-mode quantum Rabi model with non-identical bosonic modes. By means of a Bogoliubov transformation, the Hamiltonian is reduced to invariant subspaces labeled by a conserved quantity, and a transcendental G-function is derived, whose zeros determine the regular energy spectrum. We show that the spectra in different subspaces are related by a simple energy shift, revealing the crucial role of mode asymmetry in shaping the spectral structure. In the symmetric limit, the model exhibits an enhanced degeneracy, including fourfold degenerate energy levels arising from the merging of invariant subspaces. The structure of exceptional solutions is analyzed in detail. We identify finite-dimensional Juddian solutions associated with level crossings, as well as special nondegenerate solutions that give rise to isolated states. The degeneracy of these solutions is shown to be controlled by the underlying symmetry of the model. Furthermore, we investigate spectral collapse in the generic two-mode quantum Rabi model. Unlike in the two-photon quantum Rabi model, the collapse energy depends explicitly on the subspace, leading to a richer collapse scenario. We demonstrate that spectral collapse originates from the vanishing spacing between adjacent poles of the G-function, and that the collapse point supports an infinite sequence of bound states. These states exhibit exponential accumulation toward the collapse energy, revealing a hierarchical structure of collapse-induced bound states.

Two-photon Rabi–Stark model

Jiong Li, Qing‐Hu Chen

Abstract The analytically exact solutions to the two-photon Rabi–Stark model are given by using the Bogoliubov operators approach. Transcendental functions responsible for the exact solutions are derived. The zeros of the transcendental functions reproduce completely the regular spectra. The first-order quantum phase transitions are also detected by the pole structure of the derived transcendental functions, similar to the one-photon Rabi–Stark model, different from the two-photon Rabi model where the energy levels for the ground-state and the first excited state do not cross. The spectra collapse characteristics resemble those in two-photon Rabi model. Some low lying levels can split off from the collapse energy, which is different from the one-photon Rabi–Stark model in which all levels collapse.

On the 2-mode and k-photon quantum Rabi models

Yao-Zhong Zhang

By mapping the Hamiltonians of the 2-mode and 2-photon Rabi models to differential operators in suitable Hilbert spaces of entire functions, we prove that the two models possess entire and normalizable wave functions in the Bargmann–Hilbert spaces only if the frequency [Formula: see text] and coupling strength [Formula: see text] satisfy certain constraints. This is in sharp contrast to the quantum Rabi model for which entire wave functions always exist. For model parameters fulfilling the aforesaid constraints, we determine transcendental equations whose roots give the regular energy eigenvalues of the models. Furthermore, we show that for [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-photon Rabi model does not possess wave functions which are elements of the Bargmann–Hilbert space for all non-trivial model parameters. This implies that the [Formula: see text] case is not diagonalizable, unlike its RWA cousin, the [Formula: see text]-photon Jaynes–Cummings model which can be completely diagonalized for all [Formula: see text].

Solutions to the mixed quantum Rabi model

Liwei Duan, You-Fei Xie, Qing‐Hu Chen

The analytically exact solutions to the mixed quantum Rabi model including both one- and two-photon terms are found by using Bogoliubov operators. Transcendental functions in terms of $4 \times 4$ determinants responsible for the exact solutions are derived. These so-called $G$-functions with pole structure can be reduced to the previous ones in the unmixed models. The zeros of $G$-functions reproduce completely the regular spectra. The exceptional eigenvalues can be also obtained by another transcendental function. From the pole structure, we can derive two energy limits when the two-photon coupling strength tends to the collapse point $1/2$. Surprisingly, all energy levels only collapse to the lower one, which diverges negatively. All the level crossings in the unmixed models are relaxed to avoided crossings in the present mixed model due to absence of parity symmetry. Very interestingly, the effective one-photon coupling is enhanced in the presence of the two-photon coupling, which paves a highly efficient and economic way to access the deep-strong coupling regime even though the original one-photon coupling is weak.
