Abstract

We report on ground state phases of a doped one-dimensional Hubbard model, which for large onsite interactions is governed by the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ Hamiltonian, where the extant entanglement is immutable under perturbative or sudden changes of system parameters, a phenomenon termed as adiabatic freezing. We observe that in the metallic Luttinger liquid phase of the model bipartite entanglement decays polynomially and is adiabatically frozen, in contrast to the variable, exponential decay in the phase-separation and superconducting spin-gap phases. Significantly, at low fixed electron densities, the spin-gap phase shows remarkable affinity to doped resonating valence bond gas, with multipartite entanglement frozen across all parameter space. We note that entanglement, in general, is sensitive to external perturbation, as observed in several systems, and hitherto, no such invariance or freezing behavior has been reported.

Emergence of adiabatic freezing of genuine multipartite entanglement with insertion of defects in one-dimensional Hubbard model

Sreetama Das, Sudipto Singha Roy, Himadri Shekhar Dhar +3 more

We investigate the behavior of entanglement in the ground state of a doped one-dimensional lattice, where the particles interact via the quantum t-J model, which can be obtained from the Hubbard Hamiltonian with large onsite interactions. For different values of the electron concentration, the rich phase diagram exhibits both polynomial and exponential decay of bipartite quantum entanglement, with increasing lattice distance. This respectively characterizes the properties of the Luttinger liquid and the electron-hole phase separation regions of the phase diagram. Interestingly, at low electron concentration, where the spin-gap opens, the ground state turns out to be a long-ranged resonating valence bond gas. We observe that the phase diagram remains qualitatively unchanged even when additional next-nearest-neighbor spin couplings are introduced, though the phase boundaries are dependent on the relative strength between the nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions, which the decay patterns of entanglement can capture. A key finding of the study relates to the genuine multipartite entanglement of the ground state of the model at low electron densities. We observe that for fixed values of the electron density, multipartite entanglement remains immutable under perturbative or sudden changes of system parameters, a phenomenon termed as adiabatic freezing. The phenomenon is absent in the anisotropic undoped limit of the system. It is to be noted that multipartite entanglement, in general, is sensitive to external perturbation, as observed in several systems, and hitherto, no freezing behavior has been reported.

Superconducting ground state in a model with bond-charge interaction

Marco Airoldi, Alberto Parola

An electronic Hubbard-type model with bond-charge interaction and on-site repulsion U is studied in one and two dimensions. Evidence is provided in favor of superconductivity, without phase separation, for U${\mathit{U}}_{\mathit{c}}$(n), although no explicit attraction between particles is present in the Hamiltonian. The presence of a bound state for two particles in vacuum in D=1 and 2 (but not for D=3) suggests that, at low density and low dimensionality, superconductivity is due to condensation of preexistent pairs (dimers). The one-dimensional (1D) phase diagram is studied analytically as well as numerically and shows a transiiton between a Luttinger liquid and a strong-coupling phase with diverging superconducting susceptibility. Estimates of critical exponents are given at low density and at quarter filling for several values of the parameters. The 2D model at quarter filling is analyzed by Lanczos diagonalization on a 4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4 cluster. The numerical results are consistent with the phase diagram obtained by BCS mean-field theory and is qualitatively similar to the 1D case: a ground state with spin gap and off-diagonal long-range order at U${\mathit{U}}_{\mathit{c}}$(n); and a Fermi liquid above ${\mathit{U}}_{\mathit{c}}$ with no sign of phase separation.

Possible exotic phases in the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model

Rudolf Torsten Clay, Anders W. Sandvik, David K Campbell

We investigate numerically the ground state phase diagram of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model, including an on-site interaction U and a nearest-neighbor interaction V. We focus on the ground state phases of the model in the $V\ensuremath{\gg}U$ region, where previous studies have suggested the possibility of dominant superconducting pairing fluctuations before the system phase separates at a critical value ${V=V}_{\mathrm{PS}}.$ Using quantum Monte Carlo methods on lattices much larger than in previous Lancz\"os diagonalization studies, we determine the boundary of phase separation, the Luttinger-liquid correlation exponent ${K}_{\ensuremath{\rho}},$ and other correlation functions in this region. We find that phase separation occurs for V significantly smaller than previously reported. In addition, for negative U, we find that a uniform state reenters from phase separation as the electron density is increased towards half filling. For $V<{V}_{\mathrm{PS}},$ our results show that superconducting fluctuations are not dominant. The system behaves asymptotically as a Luttinger liquid with ${K}_{\ensuremath{\rho}}<1,$ but we also find strong low-energy (but gapped) charge-density fluctuations at a momentum not expected for a standard Luttinger liquid.

Scale-invariant freezing of entanglement

Titas Chanda, Tamoghna Das, Debasis Sadhukhan +3 more

We show that bipartite entanglement in an one-dimensional quantum spin model undergoing time evolution due to local Markovian environments can be frozen over time. We demonstrate this by using a number of paradigmatic quantum spin models including the anisotropic $XY$ model in the presence of a uniform and an alternating transverse magnetic field (ATXY), the $XXZ$ model, the $XYZ$ model, and the ${J}_{1}\ensuremath{-}{J}_{2}$ model involving the next-nearest-neighbor interactions. We show that the length of the freezing interval, for a chosen pair of nearest-neighbor spins, may remain independent of the length of the spin chain, for example, in paramagnetic phases of the ATXY model, indicating a scale invariance. Freezing of entanglement is found to be robust against a change in the environment temperature, the presence of disorder in the system, and whether the noise is dissipative or not dissipative. Moreover, we connect the freezing of entanglement with the propagation of information through a quantum many-body system, as considered in the Lieb-Robinson theorem. We demonstrate that the variation of the freezing duration exhibits a quadratic behavior against the distance of the nearest-neighbor spin pair from the noise source, obtained from exact numerical simulations, in contrast to the linear one as predicted by the Lieb-Robinson theorem.

Ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional t - J model

Alexander Moreno, Alejandro Muramatsu, Salvatore R. Manmana

We examine the ground-state phase diagram of the $t$-$J$ model in one dimension by means of the density matrix renormalization group. This model is characterized by a rich phase diagram as a function of the exchange interaction $J$ and the density $n$, displaying Luttinger-liquid (LL) behavior both of repulsive and attractive (i.e., superconducting) natures, a spin-gap phase, and phase separation. The phase boundaries separating the repulsive from the attractive LL phase as $J$ is increased, and also the boundaries of the spin-gap region at low densities, and phase separation at even larger $J$, are determined on the basis of correlation functions and energy gaps. In particular, we shed light on a contradiction between variational and renormalization-group (RG) results about the extent of the spin-gap phase, which results larger than the variational but smaller than the RG one. Furthermore, we show that the spin gap can reach a sizable value ($~0.1t$) at low enough filling, such that preformed pairs should be observable at temperatures below these energy scales. No evidence for a phase with clustering of more than two particles is found on approaching phase separation.

Entanglement in doped resonating valence bond states

Ravishankar Ramanathan, Dagomir Kaszlikowski, Marcin Wieśniak +1 more

We investigate the entanglement properties of resonating valence bond (RVB) states on a two-dimensional lattice in the presence of dopants that remove electrons from the lattice creating holes. The movement of the holes generated by the Hubbard Hamiltonian in the regime of strong Coulomb repulsion in this setting could be responsible for the phenomenon of high-temperature superconductivity as hypothesized by [Anderson Science 235, 1196 (1987)]. We argue that there is a particular density of dopants (holes) where the entanglement contained in the lattice attains its maximal value for the nearest-neighbor RVB liquid state. This result implies that many-body entanglement may be related to quantum phase transitions that are modeled by RVB theory.
