Collective modes of an anyon gas on a lattice

Abstract

We study a tight-binding model for anyons on a square lattice using a self-consistent mean-field theory, where the anyon gauge field is approximated by its expectation value. For any anyon density per site ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\rho}}}_{0}$=p/q and statistics \ensuremath{\nu}=1-1/n, the anyon system has a linear collective mode if and only if q is greater than twice the largest common factor of p and n. The collective mode dispersion, \ensuremath{\omega}(k), is calculated numerically for n=1 (hard-core bosons) and n=2 (semions) at certain densities.

Collective Mode of Semion Systems

X. C. Xie, Song He, S. Das Sarma

The ground and the excited states of a two-dimensional anyon system are studied via finite-size numerical calculations and single-mode approximation in a spherical geometry. It is shown that Laughlin's mean field theory gives an accurate description of the ground state properties. We find, consistent with earlier analytic theories, that the collective mode of the system exhibits a linear dispersion in the long wavelength limit, and predict a novel roton minimum at a finite value of the wavenumber q. We also discuss the consequences on the anyon spectrum of having a model repulsive interaction between the particles.

Self-consistent mean-field approach for the ideal anyon gas

Lizeng Zhang, Michael Ma, Fu‐Chun Zhang

Using a self-consistent mean-field theory, where the anyon gauge field is approximated by its expectation value, we obtain a linear excitation spectrum for noninteracting anyon systems. The sound velocity is found to be \ensuremath{\surd}3 /2 of the value obtained by the random-phase approximation. The uniform liquid state of the anyon gas is shown to be locally stable against solid formation.

Superfluidity of the lattice anyon gas and topological invariance

Eduardo Fradkin

I consider a gas of ``free'' anyons with statistical parameter \ensuremath{\delta}, with hard cores, on a two-dimensional square lattice. Using a recently derived Jordan-Wigner transformation, I map this problem onto a gas of fermions on the same lattice coupled to a Chern-Simons gauge theory with coupling \ensuremath{\theta}=1/2\ensuremath{\delta}. At the semiclassical level, the system is found to be equivalent to a gas of fermions, with the same density, in an average effective magnetic field \ensuremath{\rho}/\ensuremath{\theta}. I consider the case in which an integer number of the Landau bands of the saddle-point problem are completely filled. If \ensuremath{\delta}=\ensuremath{\pi}/m and the density \ensuremath{\rho}=r/q, with m, r, and q integers, the system is a superfluid, provided that q is larger than twice the largest common factor of m and r. If q is even and the system is half filled, the state may be either a superfluid or a quantum Hall phase. For all other values of \ensuremath{\rho} and \ensuremath{\delta}, compatible with integer filling of the Landau bands, the system is in a quantum Hall phase. The dynamical stability of the superfluid state is ensured by the topological invariance of the quantized Hall conductance of the fermion problem. I find a close analogy between anyon superconductivity and the Schwinger mechanism. The effective Lagrangian for the low-energy modes coupled to the electromagnetic field is derived. The energies of fermion and flux states are logarithmically divergent, but finite for the anyon state. The system has flux quantization, a zero-temperature Hall effect with a quantized Hall conductance, Meissner effect, charged vortices, screening with induced magnetic fields for static charges, and different masses for the longitudinal and transverse components of the electromagnetic field.

Finite-size studies of semion systems

X. C. Xie, Song He, S. Das Sarma

The ground and the excited states of a two-dimensional anyon system are studied via finite-size numerical calculations in a spherical geometry. It is shown that Laughlin's mean-field theory gives an accurate description of the ground-state properties of the finite, spherical system. We find, consistent with earlier analytic theories, that the collective mode of the system exhibits a linear dispersion in the long-wavelength limit, and predict a novel roton minimum at a finite value of the wave number q. We also discuss the consequences on the anyon spectrum of having a model repulsive interaction between the particles.

ON THE VALIDITY OF MEAN-FIELD THEORY FOR ANYONS ON A LATTICE

А. А. Овчинников, An. A. OVCHINNIKOV

We examine the validity of the mean-field approximation for anyons on a lattice at high density. The phase fluctuations for a large deviation from the Fermi statistics, in particular for the hard core bosons, are shown to be large. The importance of the phase fluctuations in different fermionic mean-field approaches for the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model is stressed.
