Schrieffer-Wolff Transformation on IBM Quantum Computer

Rukhsan Ul Haq, Iqbal, Basit, Mohsin Illahi +2 more

Schrieffer-Wolff transformation (SWT) has been extensively used in quantum many-body physics to calculate the low energy effective Hamiltonian. It provides a perturbative method to comprehend the renormalization effects of strong correlations in the quantum many-body models. The generator for Schrieffer-Wolff transformation is calculated usually by heuristic methods. Recently, a systematic and elegant method for the calculation of this extremely significant transformation has been reported [1]. Given the huge significance of SWT for many areas including quantum condensed matter physics, quantum optics and quantum cavity electrodynamics, it is imperative to develop quantum algorithm for carrying out SWT on quantum computer. In this paper, we put forward this quantum algorithm and demonstrate it for single impurity Anderson model (SIAM), thereby arriving at Kondo model as effective Hamiltonian. We implement our quantum algorithm in QisKit and carry out SWT for SIAM on IBM Quantum computers. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first of its kind to obtain Kondo model from Anderson impurity model using a quantum algorithm.

Recursive relations and quantum eigensolver algorithms within modified Schrieffer-Wolff transformations for the Hubbard dimer

Quentin Marécat, Bruno Senjean, Matthieu Saubanère

We derive recursive relations for the Schrieffer-Wolff (SW) transformation applied to the half-filled Hubbard dimer. While the standard SW transformation is set to block-diagonalize the transformed Hamiltonian solely at the first order of perturbation, we infer from recursive relations two types of modifications, variational or iterative, that approximate, or even enforce for the homogeneous case, the desired block-diagonalization at infinite order of perturbation. The modified SW unitary transformations are then used to design an test quantum algorithms adapted to the noisy and fault-tolerant era. This work paves the way toward the design of alternative quantum algorithms for the general Hubbard Hamiltonian.

Systematic Schrieffer-Wolff transformation approach to Josephson junctions: Quasiparticle effects and Josephson harmonics

Ádám Bácsi, Teodor Iličin, Rok Žitko

We use the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation (SWT) to analyze Josephson junctions between superconducting leads described by the charge-conserving BCS theory. Starting from the single-electron tunneling terms, we directly recover the conventional effective Hamiltonian, $-E_J\cos\hatφ$, with an operator-valued phase bias $\hatφ$. The SWT approach has the advantage that it can be systematically extended to more complex scenarios. We show that if a Bogoliubov quasiparticle is present its motion couples to that of Cooper pairs, introducing correlated dynamics that reshape the energy spectrum of the junction. Furthermore, higher-order terms in the SWT naturally describe Josephson harmonics, whose amplitudes are directly related to the microscopic properties of the superconducting leads and the junction. We derive expressions that could facilitate tuning the ratio between the different harmonics in a controlled way.
