Exactly Solvable Multicomponent Spinless Fermions

Abstract

Abstract By generalizing the one-to-one correspondence between exactly solvable Hermitian matrices $\mathcal {H}=\mathcal {H}^\dagger$ and exactly solvable spinless fermion systems $\mathcal {H}_f=\sum _{x,y}c_x^\dagger \mathcal {H}(x,y)c_y$, four types of exactly solvable multicomponent fermion systems are constructed explicitly. They are related to the multivariate Krawtchouk, Meixner, and two types of Rahman-like polynomials, constructed recently by myself. The Krawtchouk and Meixner polynomials are the eigenvectors of certain real symmetric matrices $\mathcal {H}$ which are related to the difference equations governing them. The corresponding fermions have nearest-neighbor interactions. The Rahman-like polynomials are eigenvectors of certain reversible Markov chain matrices $\mathcal {K}$, from which real symmetric matrices $\mathcal {H}$ are uniquely defined by the similarity transformation in terms of the square root of the stationary distribution. The fermions have wide-range interactions.

Lattice Fermions with Solvable Wide Range Interactions

Ryu Sasaki B

Abstract Exactly solvable (spinless) lattice fermions with wide range interactions are constructed explicitly based on exactly solvable stationary and reversible Markov chains $\mathcal {K}^R$ reported a few years earlier by Odake and myself. The reversibility of $\mathcal {K}^R$ with the stationary distribution $\pi$ leads to a positive classical Hamiltonian $\mathcal {H}^R$. The exact solvability of $\mathcal {H}^R$ warrants that of a spinless lattice fermion $c_x$, $c_x^\dagger$, $\mathcal {H}^R_f=\sum _{x,y\in \mathcal {X}}c_x^\dagger \mathcal {H}^R(x,y) c_y$ based on the principle advocated recently by myself. The reversible Markov chains $\mathcal {K}^R$ are constructed by convolutions of the orthogonality measures of the discrete orthogonal polynomials of the Askey scheme. Several explicit examples of the fermion systems with wide range interactions are presented.

Exactly Solvable Inhomogeneous Fermion Systems

Ryu Sasaki B

Abstract 15 exactly solvable inhomogeneous (spinless) fermion systems on 1D lattices are constructed explicitly based on the discrete orthogonal polynomials of the Askey scheme, e.g. Krawtchouk, Hahn, Racah, Meixner, and q-Racah polynomials. The Schrödinger and Heisenberg equations are solved explicitly, as the entire set of the eigenvalues and eigenstates are known explicitly. The ground-state two-point correlation functions are derived explicitly. The multipoint correlation functions are obtained by Wick’s theorem. 15 corresponding exactly solvable XX spin systems are also displayed. They all have nearest-neighbor interactions. The exact solvability of the Schrödinger equation means that the corresponding Fokker–Planck equation is also exactly solvable. This leads to 15 exactly solvable birth and death fermions and 15 birth and death spin models. These provide plenty of material for calculating interesting quantities, e.g. entanglement entropy, etc.

Exact Heisenberg operator solutions for multi-particle quantum mechanics

Satoru Odake, Ryu Sasaki B

Exact Heisenberg operator solutions for independent “sinusoidal coordinates” as many as the degree of freedom are derived for typical exactly solvable multiparticle quantum mechanical systems, the Calogero systems [J. Math. Phys.12, 419 (1971)] based on any root system. These Heisenberg operator solutions also present the explicit forms of the annihilation-creation operators for various quanta in the interacting multiparticle systems. At the same time they can be interpreted as multivariable generalization of the three term recurrence relations for multivariable orthogonal polynomials constituting the eigenfunctions.

Quantum vs classical Markov chains; Exactly solvable examples

Ryu Sasaki B

A coinless quantisation procedure of general reversible Markov chains on graphs is presented. A quantum Hamiltonian H is obtained by a similarity transformation of the fundamental transition probability matrix K in terms of the square root of the reversible distribution. The evolution of the classical and quantum Markov chains is described by the solutions of the eigenvalue problem of the quantum Hamiltonian H. About twenty plus exactly solvable Markov chains based on the hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials of Askey scheme, derived by Odake-Sasaki, would provide a good window for scrutinising the quantum/classical contrast of Markov chains. Among them five explicit examples, related to the Krawtchouk, Hahn, q-Hahn, Charlier and Meixner, are demonstrated to illustrate the actual calculations.

Exactly solvable models for 2D interacting fermions

Edwin Langmann A

I discuss many-body models for correlated fermions in two space dimensions which can be solved exactly using group theory. The simplest example is a model of a quantum Hall system: two-dimensional (2D) fermions in a constant magnetic field and a particular non-local four-point interaction. It is exactly solvable due to a dynamical symmetry corresponding to the Lie algebra gl ∞ ⊕ gl ∞ . There is an algorithm to construct all energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of this model. The latter are, in general, many-body states with spatial correlations. The model also has a non-trivial zero temperature phase diagram. I point out that this QH model can be obtained from a more realistic one using a truncation procedure generalizing a similar one leading to mean field theory. Applying this truncation procedure to other 2D fermion models I obtain various simplified models of increasing complexity which generalize mean field theory by taking into account non-trivial correlations but nevertheless are treatable by exact methods.

Quantum vs classical birth and death processes; exactly solvable examples

Ryu Sasaki B

A coinless quantisation procedure of continuous and discrete time Birth and Death (BD) processes is presented. The quantum Hamiltonian H is derived by similarity transforming the matrix L describing the BD equation in terms of the square root of the stationary (reversible) distribution. The quantum and classical systems share the entire eigenvalues and the eigenvectors are related one to one. When the birth rate B(x) and the death rate D(x) are chosen to be the coefficients of the difference equation governing the orthogonal polynomials of Askey scheme, the quantum system is exactly solvable. The eigenvectors are the orthogonal polynomials themselves and the eigenvalues are given analytically. Many examples are periodic since their eigenvalues are all integers, or all integers for integer parameters. The situation is very similar to the exactly solvable one dimensional quantum mechanical systems. These exactly solvable BD processes contain many adjustable free parameters which could be helpful for various simulation purposes.
