Abstract

We investigate the one-dimensional mixture of scalar bosons and spin-polarized fermions interacting through a $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function potential. Using a thermodynamic description derived by employing a lattice embedding of the continuum model and the quantum transfer-matrix method, we perform a detailed analysis of the contact and quantum critical behavior. We show that the compressibility Wilson ratio presents anomalous enhancement at the quantum critical points and that the boundaries of the quantum critical regions can be well mapped by the maxima of the specific heat. As a function of the coupling strength and temperature, the contact presents nonmonotonic behavior. In the strong-coupling regime the local minimum exhibited by the contact as a function of temperature is accompanied by a significant momentum reconstruction at both low and high momenta. This momentum reconstruction occurs as the system crosses the boundary between the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase to the spin-incoherent regime and provides an experimental signature of the transition.

Universality and Quantum Criticality of the One-Dimensional Spinor Bose Gas

Ovidiu I. Pâţu, Andreas Klümper, Angela Foerster

We investigate the universal thermodynamics of the two-component one-dimensional Bose gas with contact interactions in the vicinity of the quantum critical point separating the vacuum and the ferromagnetic liquid regime. We find that the quantum critical region belongs to the universality class of the spin-degenerate impenetrable particle gas which, surprisingly, is very different from the single-component case and identify its boundaries with the peaks of the specific heat. In addition, we show that the compressibility Wilson ratio, which quantifies the relative strength of thermal and quantum fluctuations, serves as a good discriminator of the quantum regimes near the quantum critical point. Remarkably, in the Tonks-Girardeau regime, the universal contact develops a pronounced minimum, reflected in a counterintuitive narrowing of the momentum distribution as we increase the temperature. This momentum reconstruction, also present at low and intermediate momenta, signals the transition from the ferromagnetic to the spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid phase and can be detected in current experiments with ultracold atomic gases in optical lattices.

Quantum phase transition and elementary excitations of a Bose-Fermi mixture in a one-dimensional optical lattice

Shi-Jian Gu, Junpeng Cao, Shu Chen +1 more

The mixture of the scalar bosonic and the spinless or polarized fermionic cold atoms in the one-dimensional optical lattice is studied. The system is modeled by the Bose-Fermi-Hubbard Hamiltonian, which shows different behavior from that of the Bose-Hubbard or the Fermi-Hubbard models. Because the $\text{SU}(1\ensuremath{\mid}1)$-supersymmetric Bethe ansatz solution gives an excellent approximation to this kind of mixed cold atomic systems, the ground-state properties of the system such as the densities of state in the momentum space are obtained based on the Bethe ansatz. If the number of bosons is equal to that of fermions and the filling factor is 1, it is found that there exists a critical on-site interaction ${U}_{c}$. If $U<{U}_{c}$, the ground state of the system is in the superfluid phase, while if $U>{U}_{c}$, the ground state is in the insulating phase. The superfluid-insulator transition occurs at ${U}_{c}$. From the analysis of the superfluid density, the value of the critical point is determined as ${U}_{c}=2.79256$, which is larger than the ${U}_{c}=0$ for the Fermi-Hubbard model and smaller than the ${U}_{c}=3.28$ for the Bose-Hubbard model. The elementary excitations and effective Hamiltonian in the strong-coupling limit are also discussed.

Boson-fermion pairing and condensation in two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

L. Pisani, Pietro Bovini, Fabrizio Pavan +1 more

We consider a mixture of bosons and spin-polarized fermions in two dimensions at zero temperature with a tunable Bose-Fermi attraction. By adopting a diagrammatic T T -matrix approach, we analyze the behavior of several thermodynamic quantities for the two species as a function of the density ratio and coupling strength, including the chemical potentials, the momentum distribution functions, the boson condensate density, and the Tan’s contact parameter. By increasing the Bose-Fermi attraction, we find that the condensate is progressively depleted and Bose-Fermi pairs form, with a small fraction of condensed bosons surviving even for strong Bose-Fermi attraction. This small condensate proves sufficient to hybridize molecular and atomic states, producing quasi-particles with unusual Fermi liquid features. A nearly universal behavior of the condensate fraction, the bosonic momentum distribution, and Tan’s contact parameter with respect to the density ratio is also found.

Universality class of quantum criticality for strongly repulsive spin-1 bosons with antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction

C. C. N. Kuhn, Xin Guan, Angela Foerster +1 more

Using the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations we study the quantum phase diagram, thermodynamics, and criticality of one-dimensional (1D) spin-1 bosons with strongly repulsive density-density and antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interactions. We analytically derive a high-precision equation of state from which the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid physics and quantum critical behavior of the system are computed. We obtain explicit forms for the scaling functions near the critical points yielding the dynamical exponent $z=2$ and correlation length exponent $\ensuremath{\nu}=1/2$ for the quantum phase transitions driven by either the chemical potential or the magnetic field. Consequently, we further demonstrate that quantum criticality of the system can be mapped out from the finite temperature density and magnetization profiles of the 1D trapped gas. Our results provide the physical origin of quantum criticality in a 1D many-body system beyond the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid description.

Liquid State of One-Dimensional Bose Mixtures: A Quantum Monte Carlo Study

L. Parisi, G. E. Astrakharchik, S. Giorgini

By using exact quantum Monte Carlo methods we calculate the ground-state properties of the liquid phase in one-dimensional Bose mixtures with contact interactions. We find that the liquid state can be formed if the ratio of coupling strengths between interspecies attractive and intraspecies repulsive interactions exceeds a critical value. As a function of this ratio we determine the density where the energy per particle has a minimum and the one where the compressibility diverges, thereby identifying the equilibrium density and the spinodal point in the phase diagram of the homogeneous liquid. Furthermore, in the stable liquid state, we calculate the chemical potential, the speed of sound, as well as structural and coherence properties, such as the pair correlation function, the static structure factor, and the one-body density matrix, thus providing a detailed description of the bulk region in self-bound droplets.

Quantum degenerate Bose-Fermi mixtures on one-dimensional optical lattices

Pinaki Sengupta, Leonid P. Pryadko

We study numerically and analytically the phases of a mixture of ultracold bosons and spin-polarized fermions in a one-dimensional lattice. In particular, along a symmetry plane in the parameter space, we obtain the exact boundary of the boson-demixing transition from the Bethe ansatz solution of the standard Hubbard model. For a region of parameter space, we prove the existence of boson-fermion mixed phase at all densities. This phase is a two-component Luttinger liquid for weak couplings or for incommensurate total density, otherwise it has a charge gap but retains a gapless mode of mixture composition fluctuations. We show that the static density correlations in these two regimes are markedly different.
