Quantum anomaly and thermodynamics of one-dimensional fermions with antisymmetric two-body interactions

A. Chakraborty, C.L. Lin, Horacio E. Camblong +3 more

A system of two-species, one-dimensional fermions, with an attractive two-body interaction of the derivative-delta type, features a scale anomaly. In contrast to the well-known two-dimensional case with contact interactions, and its one-dimensional cousin with three-body interactions (studied recently by some of us and others), the present case displays dimensional transmutation featuring a power-law rather than a logarithmic behavior. We use both the Schrödinger equation and quantum field theory to study bound and scattering states, showing consistency between both approaches. We show that the expressions for the reflection (R) and the transmission (T) coefficients of the renormalized, anomalous derivative-delta potential are identical to those of the regular delta potential. The second-order virial coefficient is calculated analytically using the Beth–Uhlenbeck formula, and we make comments about the proper ϵB→0 (where ϵB is the bound-state energy) limit. We show the impact of the quantum anomaly (which appears as the binding energy of the two-body problem, or equivalently as Tan's contact) on the equation of state and on other universal relations. Our emphasis throughout is on the conceptual and structural aspects of this problem.

Quantum Anomaly and Thermodynamics of One-Dimensional Fermions with Three-Body Interactions

Joaquín E. Drut, J. R. McKenney, W. S. Daza +2 more

We show that a system of three species of one-dimensional fermions, with an attractive three-body contact interaction, features a scale anomaly directly related to the anomaly of two-dimensional fermions with two-body contact forces. We show, furthermore, that those two cases (and their multispecies generalizations) are the only nonrelativistic systems with contact interactions that display a scale anomaly. While the two-dimensional case is well known and has been under study both experimentally and theoretically for years, the one-dimensional case presented here has remained unexplored. For the latter, we calculate the impact of the anomaly on the equation of state, which appears through the generalization of Tan's contact for three-body forces, and determine the pressure at finite temperature. In addition, we show that the third-order virial coefficient is proportional to the second-order coefficient of the two-dimensional two-body case.

Virial expansion for a three-component Fermi gas in one dimension: The quantum anomaly correspondence

Jeff Maki, CARLOS R. ORDÓÑEZ

In this paper we explore the transport properties of three-component Fermi gases confined to one spatial dimension, interacting via a three-body interaction, in the high temperature limit. At the classical level, the three-body interaction is scale invariant in one dimension. However, upon quantization, an anomaly appears which breaks the scale invariance. This is very similar to the physics of two-component fermions in two spatial dimensions, where the two-body interaction is also anomalous. Previous studies have already hinted that the physics of these two systems are intimately related. Here we expand upon those studies by examining the thermodynamic properties of this anomalous one-dimensional system in the high temperature limit. We show there is an exact mapping between the traditional two-body anomalous interaction in two dimensions, to that of three-body interaction in one dimension. This result is valid in the high temperature limit, where the thermodynamics can be understood in terms of few-body correlations.
