Bosonization of lattice fermions

Abstract

For any purely fermionic system on a lattice in arbitrary space dimension we prove that there is a different but well-defined system on the same lattice, consisting of both bona fide fermions and bosons with an interaction depending on a parameter \ensuremath{\lambda}, which characterizes a same-site repulsion between particles. The energy spectrum and the scattering matrix of the former are identical to those in the finite energy sector of the latter, in the limit \ensuremath{\lambda}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty} (i.e., hard-core repulsion). This general theorem is applied to a resonance-boson model in a lattice fermion system, whose solution may have relevance to high-${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$ superconductivity.

A Simple Mechanism for High-Temperature Superconductivity in a Repulsive Fermion Model

Kevin Slagle, Yong Baek Kim

We introduce a simple tight-binding lattice model of fermions with repulsive interactions that exhibits unconventional superconductivity. The Cooper pairing arises from a simple 4-site fermion model with repulsive interactions. In the strong coupling limit, the model reduces to a superconducting hard-core Bose-Hubbard model. Above the superconducting critical temperature, an analog of pseudo-gap physics results where the fermions remain Cooper paired with a large single-particle energy gap.

The point spectrum of the three-particle Schrödinger operator for a system comprising two identical bosons and one fermion on Z

Zahriddin Ishkobilovich Muminov, Актамова Васила Уктамовна

We consider the Hamiltonian of a system of three quantum particles (two identical bosons and a fermion) on the one-dimensional lattice interacting by means of zero-range attractive or repulsive potentials. We investigate the point spectrum of the three-particle discrete Schrödinger operator H(K), K ∈ T which possesses infinitely many eigenvalues depending on repulsive or attractive interactions, under the assumption that the bosons in the system have infinite mass

Bose-Fermi dualities for arbitrary one-dimensional quantum systems in the universal low-energy regime

Manuel Valiente

I consider general interacting systems of quantum particles in one spatial dimension. These consist of bosons or fermions, which can have any number of components, arbitrary spin, or a combination thereof, featuring low-energy two- and multiparticle interactions. The single-particle dispersion can be Galilean (nonrelativistic), relativistic, or have any other form that may be relevant for the continuum limit of lattice theories. Using an algebra of generalized functions, statistical transmutation operators that are genuinely unitary are obtained, putting bosons and fermions in a one-to-one correspondence without the need for a short-distance hard core. In the nonrelativistic case, low-energy interactions for bosons yield, order by order, fermionic dual interactions that correspond to the standard low-energy expansion for fermions. In this way, interacting fermions and bosons are fully equivalent to each other at low energies. While the Bose-Fermi mappings do not depend on microscopic details, the resulting statistical interactions heavily depend on the kinetic energy structure of the respective Hamiltonians. These statistical interactions are obtained explicitly for a variety of models, and regularized and renormalized in the momentum representation, which allows for theoretically and computationally feasible implementations of the dual theories. The mapping is rewritten as a gauge interaction, and one-dimensional anyons are also considered.

Bosons, fermions and spins 1/2: the interplay on lattices of arbitrary dimension

P Garbaczewksi

The author establishes relationships between Bose, Fermi and spin-1/2 systems on lattices of arbitrary dimension and arbitrary but finite size which are defined to live in the (common) state space of the boson system. The underlying systems display an essential affinity by being described by precisely the same form of Hamiltonians, which are the polynomial functions of canonical operator variables: boson, fermion or spin-1/2 variables, respectively. For large enough, densely populated finite volume lattices it entails the computation of partition and correlation functions for lattice fermions in terms of bosons only. Albeit an approximation, its accuracy increases as the continuum limit is approached.

Few-body physics on a spacetime lattice in the worldline approach

Hersh Singh, Shailesh Chandrasekharan A

We formulate the physics of two species of nonrelativistic hard-core bosons with attractive or repulsive delta function interactions on a spacetime lattice in the worldline approach. We show that worm algorithms can efficiently sample the worldline configurations in any fixed particle-number sector if the chemical potential is tuned carefully. Since fermions can be treated as hard-core bosons up to a permutation sign, we apply this approach to study nonrelativistic fermions. The fermion permutation sign is an observable in this approach and can be used to extract energies in each particle-number sector. In one dimension, nonrelativistic fermions can only permute across boundaries, and so our approach does not suffer from sign problems in many cases, unlike the auxiliary field method. Using our approach, we discover limitations of the recently proposed complex Langevin calculations in one spatial dimension for some parameter regimes. In higher dimensions, our method suffers from the usual fermion sign problem. Here we provide evidence that it may be possible to alleviate this problem for few-body physics.

Bosonization on a lattice: The emergence of the higher harmonics

Jaime Ferrer, J. González, Miguel Angel Martin-Delgado

A general and transparent procedure to bosonize fermions placed on a lattice is presented. Harmonics higher than ${\mathit{k}}_{\mathit{F}}$ in the one-particle Green function are shown to appear due to the compact character of real electron bands. Quantitative estimations of the role of higher harmonics are made possible by this bosonization technique.
