Sorting Fermionization from Crystallization in Many-Boson Wavefunctions

Sangita Bera, Barnali Chakrabarti, A. Gammal +5 more

Fermionization is what happens to the state of strongly interacting repulsive bosons interacting with contact interactions in one spatial dimension. Crystallization is what happens for sufficiently strongly interacting repulsive bosons with dipolar interactions in one spatial dimension. Crystallization and fermionization resemble each other: in both cases - due to their repulsion - the bosons try to minimize their spatial overlap. We trace these two hallmark phases of strongly correlated one-dimensional bosonic systems by exploring their ground state properties using the one- and two-body density matrix. We solve the N-body Schrödinger equation accurately and from first principles using the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree for bosons (MCTDHB) and for fermions (MCTDHF) methods. Using the one- and two-body density, fermionization can be distinguished from crystallization in position space. For N interacting bosons, a splitting into an N-fold pattern in the one-body and two-body density is a unique feature of both, fermionization and crystallization. We demonstrate that this splitting is incomplete for fermionized bosons and restricted by the confinement potential. This incomplete splitting is a consequence of the convergence of the energy in the limit of infinite repulsion and is in agreement with complementary results that we obtain for fermions using MCTDHF. For crystalline bosons, in contrast, the splitting is complete: the interaction energy is capable of overcoming the confinement potential. Our results suggest that the spreading of the density as a function of the dipolar interaction strength diverges as a power law. We describe how to distinguish fermionization from crystallization experimentally from measurements of the one- and two-body density.

Quasi-Magical Fermion Numbers and Thermal Many-Body Dynamics

Angelo Plastino, Diana Monteoliva, Angel Ricardo Plastino

This work scrutinizes, using statistical mechanics indicators, important traits displayed by quantum many-body systems. Our statistical mechanics quantifiers are employed, in the context of Gibbs’ canonical ensemble at temperature T. A new quantifier of this sort is also presented here. The present discussion focuses attention on the role played by the fermion number N in many-fermion dynamics, that is, N is our protagonist. We have discovered discovers particular values of N for which the thermal indicators exhibit unexpected abrupt variations. Such a fact reflects an unanticipated characteristic of fermionic dynamics.

Exact multistability and dissipative time crystals in interacting fermionic lattices

Hadiseh Alaeian, Berislav Buča

Abstract The existence of multistability in quantum systems beyond the mean-field approximation remains an intensely debated open question. Quantum fluctuations are finite-size corrections to the mean-field as the full exact solution is unobtainable and they usually destroy the multistability present on the mean-field level. Here, by identifying and using exact modulated dynamical symmetries in a driven-dissipative fermionic chain we exactly prove multistability in the presence of quantum fluctuations. Further, unlike common cases in our model, rather than destroying multistability, the quantum fluctuations themselves exhibit multistability, which is absent on the mean-field level for our systems. Moreover, the studied model acquires additional thermodynamic dynamical symmetries that imply persistent periodic oscillations, constituting the first case of a boundary time crystal,to the best of our knowledge, a genuine extended many-body quantum system with the previous cases being only in emergent single- or few-body models. The model can be made into a dissipative time crystal in the limit of large dissipation (i.e. the persistent oscillations are stabilized by the dissipation) making it both a boundary and dissipative time crystal.
