Abstract

In this paper, we studied the statistical behavior of anyons with isospin degrees of freedom, in which the fluctuation of isospin degrees of freedom satisfies the O(3) nonlinear σ model. Under the mean field treatment, this model is in somewhat equivalent to the doped or frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (AFM) model. We also studied the relation between the statistical field A μ , and Skyrmion current B μ . Finally, we set up the relation between flux states and spinon statistics, and the conditions of Bose condensation of holons. In particular, for π -flux state of A μ , the spinons are bosons, the holons satisfy 2/3 fractional statistics.

Mean field and fluctuations for fermionic systems: from ultracold Fermi gases to cuprates

Giacomo Bighin

This Thesis analyzes the role of a mean-field theory and of the fluctuations in two different fermionic systems: the BCS-BEC crossover and high-Tc superconducting cuprates. In the first part of the Thesis we introduce the mean-field theory and the Gaussian-level fluctuations for the BCS-BEC crossover, i.e. the continuous evolution observed in ultracold neutral fermionic systems, from a weakly-coupled regime where fermions form Cooper pairs, to a strongly-coupled regime where the fermions at first form bosonic molecular dimers, subsequently undergoing Bose-Einstein condensation for low enough temperatures. We then analyze some problems related to the crossover: the condensate fraction for a spin-unbalanced Fermi gas, the Beliaev decay for collective excitations and the case of a two-dimensional Fermi gas, for which we calculate the first sound velocity and the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless critical temperature, in very good agreement with recent experimental data. Finally we analyze a regularization procedure for the equation of state in the deep-BEC limit, allowing one to analytically derive the correct ratio between the fermionic and bosonic scattering lengths. In the second part of the Thesis we introduce a gauge approach to superconductivity in cuprates in which the hole is decomposed as the product of a spinful neutral particle, the spinon, and a spinless charged particle, the holon. The statistics of each particle is modified by binding it to a gauge field providing a statistical flux, this approach being analogous to Chern-Simons bosonization. We thus obtain a model characterized by three characteristic temperatures corresponding, respectively, to the appearance of a finite density of incoherent holon pairs, of a finite density of incoherent spinon pairs and, finally, to the phase coherence leading to superconductivity. Specifically in the present Thesis within this model we study the superfluid density, demonstrating that the spinon and holon contributions sum according to a Ioffe-Larking-like rule, analogous to that they found for resistivity, showing excellent agreement with experimental data in the moderate underdoping up to optimal doping region. We also demonstrated that the formalism reproduces the quasi-universality observed in experimental data at different dopings and allows for an analytical derivation of a relation that approximates the Uemura relation for moderate dopings.

The t-J model: Anyons, flux states, spinons, holons, and all that

S. E. Barnes

Even for the J = 0 limit of the t - J model, the spinons and holons are anyonic and the mean-field approach to this anyon problem results in a finite flux ground state.

Anyons in Extendedt-JModel

Hidetoshi Fukuyama, Osamu Narikiyo, Kazuhiro Kuboki

The extended t - J model, which has both transfer integral and exchange interaction between next-nearest neighbors besides those between nearest neighbors, has been investigated by the mean field approximation in the slave-boson scheme. Especially, the staggered flux state and the chiral spin state have been investigated. For the latter state, anyons are derived by use of the result of the Chern-Simons term for the doped case. It is shown that the prefactor of the Chern-Simons term and thus the fractional statistics depend on the degree of doping.

Bosonization of 2D Fermions due to Spin and Statistical Magnetic Field Coupling and Possible Nature of Superconductivity and Pseudogap Phases Below E_g

B. Abdullaev, Chul Hong Park

A ground state energy variational calculation of anyon gas with Hamiltonian included the interaction of spins of particles with anyon vector potential induced, i.e. statistical, magnetic field exhibits exact cancelation of terms connected with fractional statistics. This leads to bosonization of anyons due to coupling of their spins with statistical magnetic field. We presume that at the dense gas fluctuations of effective spins destroy the coupling and bosons become anyons. At the assumption that pseudogap (PG) boundary is temperature independent and when anyons are fermions we use this model to interpret experimental phase diagrams of Tallon and Loram hole and electron doped High-T_c superconductors below PG energy E_g and find the qualitative and quantitative agreement. We do the hypothesis that phase transition (PT) of bosons into Bose-Einstein condensate is not of second order, but of first order, close to second one, PG regime is meta stable phase of bosons, and E_g=0 is the critical point of this PT. Bosons undergo PT into fermions on PG boundary. Described in the literature non-Fermi quasi-particles might be related to bosons with effective spins.

Fractional Statistics

Martin Greiter, Frank A. Wilczek

The quantum-mechanical description of assemblies of particles whose motion is confined to two (or one) spatial dimensions offers many possibilities that are distinct from bosons and fermions. We call such particles anyons. The simplest anyons are parameterized by an angular phase parameter θ. θ = 0, π correspond to bosons and fermions, respectively; at intermediate values, we say that we have fractional statistics. In two dimensions, θ describes the phase acquired by the wave function as two anyons wind around one another counterclockwise. It generates a shift in the allowed values for the relative angular momentum. Composites of localized electric charge and magnetic flux associated with an abelian U(1) gauge group realize this behavior. More complex charge-flux constructions can involve nonabelian and product groups acting on a spectrum of allowed charges and fluxes, giving rise to nonabelian and mutual statistics. Interchanges of nonabelian anyons implement unitary transformations of the wave function within an emergent space of internal states. Anyons of all kinds are described by quantum field theories that include Chern–Simons terms. The crossings of one-dimensional anyons on a ring are unidirectional, such that a fractional phase θ acquired upon interchange gives rise to fractional shifts in the relative momenta between the anyons. The quasiparticle excitations of fractional quantum Hall states have long been predicted to include anyons. Recently, the anyon behavior predicted for quasiparticles in the ν = 1/3 fractional quantum Hall state has been observed in both scattering and interferometric experiments. Excitations within designed systems, notably including superconducting circuits, can exhibit anyon behavior. Such systems are being developed for possible use in quantum information processing.

g-on Mean Field Theory of thet-JModel

Flordivino Basco, Hiroshi Kohno, Hidetoshi Fukuyama +1 more

Implication of our recent proposal [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 65 (1996) 687] to treat large-amplitude gauge-field fluctuations around the slave-boson mean-field theory for the t-J model has been explored in detail. By attaching gauge flux to spinons and holons and then treating them as free g-on's which respect the time-reversal symmetry, the optimum exclusion (g) and exchange (\a) statistics have been determined in the plane of doping rate and temperature. Two different relations between \a and g have been investigated, namely g=|\a| (Case1) and g=|\a|(2-|\a|) (Case2). The results indicate that slave fermion is favored at low doping while slave boson at high doping. For two dimension, in Case1 intermediate statistics are found in between, while in Case2 no intermediate statistics are found. The consequences of varying the dimensionality and strength of J have been studied also. The latter has no qualitative effect for both cases, while the former has a profound effect in Case1.
