Abstract

We study the (pseudo-) anyon Hubbard model on a one-dimensional lattice without the presence of a three-body hardcore constraint. In particular, for the pseudo-fermion limit of a large statistical angle $\ensuremath{\theta}\ensuremath{\approx}\ensuremath{\pi}$, we observe a wealth of exotic properties, including a first-order transition between different superfluid phases and a two-component partially paired phase for large fillings without need of an additional three-body hardcore constraint. In this limit, we analyze the effect of an induced hardcore constraint, which leads to the stabilization of superfluid ground states for vanishing or even small attractive onsite interactions. For finite statistical angles, we study the unconventional broken-symmetry superfluid peaked at a finite momentum, resulting in an interesting beat phenomenon of single-particle correlation functions. We show how some features of various ground-state phases, including an analog of the partially paired phase in the pseudo-fermion limit, may be reproduced in a naive mean field frame.

Beats, broken-symmetry superfluid on a one dimensional anyon Hubbard model

Wanzhou Zhang, Ernv Fan, Scott, Tony C +1 more

By using the density matrix renormalization group and mean field methods, the anyon Hubbard model is studied systematically on a one dimensional lattice. The model can be expressed as a Bose-Hubbard model with a density-dependent-phase term. When the phase angle is $θ=0$ or $θ=π$, the model will be equivalent to boson and pseudo fermion models, respectively. In the mean field frame, we find a broken-symmetry superfluid (BSF), in which the $b^{\dagger}(b)$ operators on the nearest neighborhood sites have exactly opposite directions and behave like a directed oscillation pattern. By the density matrix reorganization group method, in the broken-symmetry superfluid, both the real and imaginary parts of the correlation $b^{\dagger}_ib_{i+r}$ behave according to a {\it beat phenomenon} with $0

Three-body-interaction effects on the ground state of one-dimensional anyons

J. Arcila-Forero, Roberto Franco, Jereson Silva-Valencia

We investigated a one-dimensional system of anyons that interact with each other under a local three-body term. Using a fractional Jordan-Wigner transformation, we arrived at a modified Bose-Hubbard model, which exhibits gapped and gapless phases. We built the phase diagram of the system fixing the hopping parameter or the statistics, showing the evolution of the critical points, which were estimated with von Neumann block entropy. A superfluid to Mott insulator quantum phase transition with one particle per site can be driven by the statistics or the interaction. Specifically, we show that for larger angles there is a finite critical value of the interaction at which the Mott phase appears. Also, we found that the critical angles increase with the hopping. Diverse gapless phases were observed away from the pseudofermion limit.

Quantum field theory for the three-body constrained lattice Bose gas. II. Application to the many-body problem

Sebastian Diehl, M. Baranov, Andrew J. Daley +1 more

We analyze the ground-state phase diagram of attractive lattice bosons, which are stabilized by a three-body onsite hardcore constraint. A salient feature of this model is an Ising-type transition from a conventional atomic superfluid to a dimer superfluid with vanishing atomic condensate. The study builds on an exact mapping of the constrained model to a theory of coupled bosons with polynomial interactions, proposed in a related paper [S. Diehl, M. Baranov, A. Daley, and P. Zoller, Phys. Rev. B 82, 064509 (2010).]. In this framework, we focus by analytical means on aspects of the phase diagram which are intimately connected to interactions, and are thus not accessible in a mean-field plus spin-wave approach. First, we determine shifts in the mean-field phase border, which are most pronounced in the low-density regime. Second, the investigation of the strong coupling limit reveals the existence of a ``continuous supersolid,'' which emerges as a consequence of enhanced symmetries in this regime. We discuss its experimental signatures. Third, we show that the Ising-type phase transition, driven first order via the competition of long-wavelength modes at generic fillings, terminates into a true Ising quantum critical point in the vicinity of half filling.

Few-body bound states in the anyon-Hubbard model

Isaac Tesfaye, Christina Mascherbauer, Joyce Kwan +6 more

Quantum statistics in low-dimensional systems predicts anyonic particles with fractional exchange statistics which are neither that of bosons nor fermions. While anyons are typically found in two dimensions as excitations of topologically-ordered states of matter, anyon-like exchange statistics has also been discussed in one dimension, for instance, in the context of the anyon-Hubbard model (AHM), the physics of which has recently been observed in experiment [Kwan et al., arXiv:2306.01737; Dhar et al., arXiv:2412.21131; and Bakkali-Hassani et al., arXiv:2602.20421]. The AHM can be formulated in terms of bosons featuring density-dependent Peierls phases, described by a statistical phase angle $θ$, which controls asymmetric transport and the formation of dynamically bound pairs at finite momentum. Here, we show theoretically that the AHM also hosts exact two-body bound states in the continuum (BICs) for arbitrary $θ\neq 0$, and genuine three- and four-body bound states. Unlike conventional bound states stabilized by attractive (or repulsive) interactions, which are energetically localized with a large effective mass, these clusters here are bound by a purely kinematic mechanism endowing them with fast chiral transport properties. We provide a simple variational approximation to the three-body bound states and explain their binding mechanism. Moreover, we show that the signatures of three-body bound states in the AHM can be directly probed experimentally from the expansion dynamics starting from three localized particles.

Revealing Pseudo-Fermionization and Chiral Binding of One-Dimensional Anyons using Adiabatic State Preparation

Brice Bakkali-Hassani, Joyce Kwan, Perrin Segura +5 more

Fractional statistics give rise to quantum behaviors that differ fundamentally from those of bosons and fermions. While two-dimensional anyons play a major role in strongly correlated systems and topological quantum computing, the nature of their one-dimensional (1D) counterparts remains the subject of intense debate, with renewed interest fueled by recent experimental progress. Theoretically, 1D anyons are predicted to host exotic many-body phases and quantum phase transitions, yet experimental signatures have remained elusive. Using ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, we prepare two-body ground states of the 1D anyon-Hubbard model by combining Hamiltonian engineering via quasiperiodic drives and adiabatic state manipulation. We uncover the effects of statistical interactions that lead to pseudo-fermionization and to the formation of chiral bound states when particles remain close together. Our results establish a link between lattice and continuum realizations of anyon models, and mark important steps towards the precise control of 1D anyons in both equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium settings.

Ground-state properties of the attractive one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model

N. Oelkers, Jon Links

We study the ground state of the attractive one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model, and in particular the nature of the crossover between the weak interaction and strong interaction regimes for finite system sizes. Indicator properties such as the gap between the ground and first excited energy levels, and the incremental ground-state wave function overlaps are used to locate different regimes. Using mean-field theory we predict that there are two distinct crossovers connected to spontaneous symmetry breaking of the ground state. The first crossover arises in an analysis valid for large $L$ with finite $N$, where $L$ is the number of lattice sites and $N$ is the total particle number. An alternative approach valid for large $N$ with finite $L$ yields a second crossover. For small system sizes we numerically investigate the model and observe that there are signatures of both crossovers. We compare with exact results from Bethe ansatz methods in several limiting cases to explore the validity for these numerical and mean-field schemes. The results indicate that for finite attractive systems there are generically three ground-state phases of the model.
