Abstract

Reformulate a work by A. McKerrell so that his formulas conform to our conventions and notations. Reproduce, in addition, much of the work of A. J. Macfarlane. Fill in all the intermediate steps of most of their key results. Add a number of relevant and useful formulas. . .

Nonrelativistic Dirac fermions on the torus

Jeremías Aguilera Damia, Mario Solís, Gonzalo Torroba

Abstract Two dimensional conformal field theories have been extensively studied in the past. When considered on the torus, they are strongly constrained by modular invariance. However, introducing relevant deformations or chemical potentials pushes these theories away from criticality, where many of their aspects are still poorly understood. In this note we make a step towards filling this gap, by analyzing the theory of a Dirac fermion on the torus, deformed by a mass term and a chemical potential for the particle number symmetry. The theory breaks conformal and Lorentz invariance, and we study its spectrum and partition function. We also focus on two limits that are interesting on their own right: a massless relativistic fermion with nonzero chemical potential (a simple model for CFTs at finite density), and nonrelativistic Schrodinger fermions (of relevance in condensed matter systems). Taking inspiration from recent developments in massive modular forms, we obtain a representation of the torus free energy based on Fourier-transforming over a twisted boundary condition. This dual representation fullfills many properties analogous to modular invariance in CFTs. In particular, we use this result to derive Cardy-like formulas for the high energy density of states of these theories.

Nuclear_Reactor_Monitoring_via_Quantum_Discord

Walter Ayala

Version 6.1 presents an expanded research framework for investigating whether quantumcorrelations, specifically quantum discord, can provide useful information for nuclear reactormonitoring based on antineutrino detection.The architecture is reformulated into physically distinct layers:1. reactor antineutrino production;2. antineutrino propagation;3. physical interaction in a target medium;4. event reconstruction;5. event-conditioned quantum interface;6. auxiliary quantum-state tomography;7. estimation of discord and complementary correlation metrics;8. reactor-parameter inference. Unlike previous versions, the present framework does not postulate a direct antineutrino–qubitinteraction as an established physical mechanism.The central experimental hypothesis is instead:P(ρaux | antineutrino-associated event, θdet) ̸= P(ρaux | background event, θdet) (1)where ρaux is the experimentally reconstructed auxiliary quantum state and θdet denotesdetector configuration.If such a relationship exists, the framework tests whether discord contributes informationbeyond conventional event rate, energy, timing, and classical-correlation observables.The primary analysis is therefore comparative rather than assumptive:M0 ⊂ M1 ⊂ M2, (2)where M0 is a conventional detector model, M1 adds quantum-state observables, and M2adds discord-derived observables.Version 6.1 additionally integrates a structural discord-plus-coherence rate estimator, explicitsource and detector rate formulas, and a formal cross-correlation baseline.No experimental result is claimed.

Path integral representation for the Hubbard model with reduced number of Lefschetz thimbles

Maksim Ulybyshev, S. N. Valgushev

The concept of Lefschetz thimble decomposition is one of the most promising possible modifications of Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) algorithms aimed at alleviating the sign problem which appears in many interesting physical situations, e.g. in the Hubbard model away from half filling. In this approach one utilizes the fact that the integral over real variables with an integrand containing a complex fluctuating phase is equivalent to the sum of integrals over special manifolds in complex space ("Lefschetz thimbles"), each of them having a fixed complex phase factor. Thus, the sign problem can be reduced if the resulting sum contains terms with only a few different phases. We explore the complexity of the sign problem for the few-site Hubbard model on square lattice combining a semi-analytical study of saddle points and thimbles in small lattices with several steps in Euclidean time with results of test QMC calculations. We check different variants of conventional Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation based on Gaussian integrals. On the basis of our analysis we reveal a regime with minimal number of relevant thimbles in the vicinity of half filling. In this regime we found only two relevant thimbles for the few-site lattices studied in the paper. There is also indirect evidence of the existence of this regime in more realistic systems with large number of Euclidean time slices. In addition, we derive a new non-Gaussian representation of the interaction term, where the number of relevant Lefschetz is also reduced in comparison with conventional Gaussian Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation.
