Entanglement structure of the two-component Bose-Hubbard model as a quantum simulator of a Heisenberg chain

Abstract

We consider a quantum simulator of the Heisenberg chain with ferromagnetic interactions based on the two-component 1D Bose-Hubbard model at filling equal to two in the strong coupling regime. The entanglement properties of the ground state of the two-component Bose-Hubbard model are compared to those of the effective spin model as the interspecies interaction approaches the intraspecies one. A numerical study of the entanglement properties of the two-component Bose-Hubbard model is supplemented with analytical expressions derived from the effective spin Hamiltonian. When the pure ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain is considered, the entanglement properties of the effective Hamiltonian are not properly predicted by the quantum simulator.

XXZ spin- 12 representation of a finite- U Bose-Hubbard chain at half-integer filling

Domenico Giuliano, Davide Rossini, Pasquale Sodano +1 more

Using a similarity Hamiltonian renormalization procedure, we determine an effective spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ representation of the Bose-Hubbard model at half-integer filling and at a finite onsite interaction energy $U$. By means of bosonization, we are able to recast the effective Hamiltonian as that of a spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ magnetic chain with pertinently renormalized coupling and anisotropy parameters. We use this mapping to provide analytical estimates of the correlation functions of the Bose-Hubbard model. We then compare such results with those based on density matrix renormalization group numerical simulations of the Bose-Hubbard model for various values of $U$ and for a number $L$ of lattice sites as low as $L\ensuremath{\sim}30$. We find an excellent agreement up to $10%$ between the output of analytical and numerical computations, even for relatively small values of $U$. Our analysis implies that, also at finite $U$, the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model with suitably chosen parameters may be seen as a quantum simulator of the XXZ chain.

Thermal entanglement of a spin-1/2 Ising–Heisenberg model on a symmetrical diamond chain

N.S. Ananikian, L N Ananikyan, Levon Chakhmakhchyan +1 more

The entanglement quantum properties of a spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a symmetrical diamond chain were analyzed. Due to the separable nature of the Ising-type exchange interactions between neighboring Heisenberg dimers, calculation of the entanglement can be performed exactly for each individual dimer. Pairwise thermal entanglement was studied in terms of the isotropic Ising-Heisenberg model and analytical expressions for the concurrence (as a measure of bipartite entanglement) were obtained. The effects of external magnetic field H and next-nearest neighbor interaction J(m) between nodal Ising sites were considered. The ground state structure and entanglement properties of the system were studied in a wide range of coupling constant values. Various regimes with different values of ground state entanglement were revealed, depending on the relation between competing interaction strengths. Finally, some novel effects, such as the two-peak behavior of concurrence versus temperature and coexistence of phases with different values of magnetic entanglement, were observed.

Monte Carlo study of a one-dimensional degenerate Hubbard model

Wonpyong Gill, Douglas J. Scalapino

Correlations of a one-dimensional doubly degenerate Hubbard model are studied for the one-quarter-filled case. Exact calculations on a four-site lattice show that a ferromagnetic state exists in the strong-coupling regime. For a one-dimensional chain, a strong-coupling effective Hamiltonian was studied using a self-consistent calculation, a high-temperature expansion, and quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The results provide information on the parameters needed for ferromagnetic correlations, and the temperature dependence of the spin and orbital correlations.

Effective Hamiltonian for a Half-filled Hubbard Chain with Alternating On-site Interactions

Paata Kakashvili, G. I. Japaridze

We derive an effective spin Hamiltonian for the one-dimensional half-filled alternating Hubbard model in the limit of strong on-site repulsion. We show that the effective Hamiltonian is a spin S = 1/2 Heisenberg chain with asymmetric next-nearest-neighbour (nnn) exchange.

Ferromagnetism in a two-component Bose-Hubbard model with synthetic spin-orbit coupling

Jize Zhao, Shijie Hu, Jun Chang +2 more

We study the effect of the synthetic spin-orbit coupling in a two-component Bose-Hubbard model in one dimension by employing the density-matrix renormalization group method. A ferromagnetic long-range order emerges in both Mott-insulator and superfluid phases resulting from the spontaneous breaking of the ${Z}_{2}$ symmetry, when the spin-orbit coupling term becomes comparable to the hopping kinetic energy and the intercomponent interaction is smaller than the intracomponent one as well. This effect is expected to be detectable with the present realization of the synthetic spin-orbit coupling in experiments.

Spin-chain model for strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

F. Deuretzbacher, D. Becker, J. Bjerlin +2 more

Strongly interacting one-dimensional (1D) Bose--Fermi mixtures form a tunable $XXZ$ spin chain. Within the spin-chain model developed here, all properties of these systems can be calculated from states representing the ordering of the bosons and fermions within the atom chain and from the ground-state wave function of spinless noninteracting fermions. We validate the model by means of an exact diagonalization of the full few-body Hamiltonian in the strongly interacting regime. Using the model, we explore the phase diagram of the atom chain as a function of the boson-boson (BB) and boson-fermion (BF) interaction strengths and calculate the densities, momentum distributions, and trap-level occupancies for up to 17 particles. In particular, we find antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) order and a demixing of the bosons and fermions in certain interaction regimes. We find, however, no demixing for equally strong BB and BF interactions, in agreement with earlier calculations that combined the Bethe ansatz with a local-density approximation.
