Interacting Lattice Bosons on the Concrete Buchholz Algebra -- All-Temperature Equilibrium States from Functional-Integral Local-Number Bounds

Abstract

Interacting Bose--Hubbard dynamics is formulated on the concrete Buchholz algebra in Fock space. Under repulsive finite-range interactions and a low-activity gap, a discrete functional integral gives volume-uniform exponential local-number bounds at all temperatures. These bounds remove the local-moment hypothesis and yield finite-volume approximation and KMS accumulation states in arXiv:2505.13170.

Dynamics and equilibrium states of infinite systems of lattice bosons

Andreas Deuchert, Jonas Lampart, Marius Lemm

We consider the dynamics of systems of lattice bosons with infinitely many degrees of freedom. We show that their dynamics defines a group of automorphisms on a $C^*$--algebra introduced by Buchholz, which extends the resolvent algebra of local field operators. For states that admit uniform bounds on moments of the local particle number, we derive propagation bounds of Lieb--Robinson type. Using these bounds, we show that the dynamics of local observables gives rise to a strongly continuous unitary group in the GNS representation. Moreover, accumulation points of finite-volume Gibbs states satisfy the KMS condition with respect to this group. This, in particular, proves the existence of KMS states.

Clustering Theorem for Bose–Hubbard Class Gibbs States

Xin-Hai Tong, Tomotaka Kuwahara, Zongping Gong

Abstract We establish the exponential clustering of correlation functions for the high-temperature Gibbs states of Bose–Hubbard type models. To overcome the technical difficulties arising from the unboundedness of bosonic operators, we develop the interaction-picture cluster-expansion technique. This method also allows us to systematically bound the moments of the local particle number. This result provides an analytical justification for the low-boson-density condition frequently assumed in the study of bosonic many-body systems. As direct mathematical consequences of the clustering property, we derive a uniform upper bound on the specific heat density and establish a bosonic thermal area law with improved temperature dependence.

Quantum q -breathers in a finite Bose-Hubbard chain: The case of two interacting bosons

Jean Pierre Nguenang, Ricardo A. Pinto, Sergej Flach A

We study the spectrum and eigenstates of the quantum discrete Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian in a finite one-dimensional lattice containing two bosons. The interaction between the bosons leads to an algebraic localization of the modified extended states in the normal-mode space of the noninteracting system. Weight functions of the eigenstates in the space of normal modes are computed by using numerical diagonalization and perturbation theory. We find that staggered states do not compactify in the dilute limit for large chains.

Interaction-energy functional of the Hubbard model: Local formulation and application to low-dimensional lattices

Matthieu Saubanère, Marie-Bernadette Lepetit, G. M. Pastor

The interaction energy $W[\ensuremath{\gamma}]$ of the Hubbard model is regarded as a functional of the single-particle density matrix $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ in the framework of lattice density-functional theory. The local character of the Hubbard interaction is exploited to express $W$ as a sum of local contributions ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{i}[\ensuremath{\gamma}]$, for which a simple semilocal scaling approximation is proposed. The method is applied to the ionic Hubbard model on one- and two-dimensional lattices with homogeneous and inhomogeneous Coulomb repulsions. Results are given for the kinetic and Coulomb energies, interatomic charge transfers, local magnetic moments, and charge gaps. Goals and limitations of the functional are discussed by comparison with exact results.

Finite-temperature theory of bosons in optical lattices

Danny Baillie

Beautiful experiments have shown that bosons in optical lattices provide a physical system with an unprecedented degree of control; that they can generate strongly correlated states; and that, as long-term goals, they may be useful for simulating other many-body systems, or realising a quantum computer. Recently a practical scheme for measuring temperature in an optical lattice has been demonstrated, which marks an important milestone necessary for the detailed study of the thermodynamics of this system. In this thesis, we consider both the translationally-invariant lattice, and the combined harmonic trap and optical lattice. We use an extended Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian which goes beyond the usual Bose-Hubbard approach, and is valid for shallower lattices and higher temperatures, by allowing for beyond nearest-neighbour hopping and excited bands, and we have developed an approximation scheme for off-site interactions. We derive the equations of the Popov approximation to the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method for our Hamiltonian, and diagonalise these equations in the local density approximation (LDA). We examine the density of states of the optical lattice in detail and in various limits. We derive new results on the structure of the density of states, and, in the ideal case, we compare the density of states from the full diagonalisation with our LDA calculation. We make an efficient numerical implementation of our theory and compare the results with the full diagonalisation (for the non-interacting case) and with the limited experimental results currently available. We consider the significance of beyond nearest-neighbour hopping and excited bands and illustrate the properties of our model. In contrast to the trapped gas with no lattice, few thermodynamic results for cold bosons in an optical lattice have been calculated. We analytically derive the first practical formula for the critical temperature in an optical lattice by using simplified shapes for the density of states. We derive corrections for the influence of excited bands, the finite-size effect and mean-field interactions. In all of these cases, we compare our results to full numerical calculations and show that the validity range of our method is complementary to that of the effective-mass approximation, so that the simple descriptions extend over a wide range.

Solving the Bose-Hubbard model in new ways

Artur Sowa, Jonas Fransson

We introduce a new method for analysing the Bose-Hubbard model for an array of bosons with nearest neighbor interactions. It is based on a number-theoretic implementation of the creation and annihilation operators that constitute the model. One of the advantages of this approach is that it facilitates accurate computations involving multi-particle states. In particular, we provide a rigorous computer assisted proof of quantum phase transitions in finite systems of this type. Furthermore, we investigate properties of the infinite array via harmonic analysis on the multiplicative group of positive rationals. This furnishes an isomorphism that recasts the underlying Fock space as an infinite tensor product of Hecke spaces, i.e., spaces of square-integrable periodic functions that are a superposition of non-negative frequency harmonics. Under this isomorphism, the number-theoretic creation and annihilation operators are mapped into the Kastrup model of the harmonic oscillator on the circle. It also enables us to highlight a kinship of the model at hand with an array of spin moments with a local anisotropy field. This identifies an interesting physical system that can be mapped into the model at hand.
