Class of Exactly Solvable Pairing Models

Abstract

We present three classes of exactly solvable models for fermion and boson systems, based on the pairing interaction. These models are solvable in any dimension. As an example we show the first results for fermions interacting with repulsive pairing forces in a two-dimensional square lattice. In spite of the repulsive pairing force the exact results show attractive pair correlations.

FERMIONS IN TWO DIMENSIONS, BOSONIZATION, AND EXACTLY SOLVABLE MODELS

Jonas de Woul, Edwin Langmann A

We discuss interacting fermion models in two dimensions, and, in particular, such that can be solved exactly by bosonization. One solvable model of this kind was proposed by Mattis as an effective description of fermions on a square lattice. We review recent work on a specific relation between a variant of Mattis' model and such a lattice fermion system, as well as the exact solution of this model. The background for this work includes well-established results for one-dimensional systems and the high-Tc problem. We also mention exactly solvable extensions of Mattis' model.

Exactly Solvable BCS-Hubbard Model in Arbitrary Dimensions

Zewei Chen, Xiaohui Li, Tai Kai Ng

We introduce in this Letter an exact solvable BCS-Hubbard model in arbitrary dimensions. The model describes a p-wave BCS superconductor with equal spin pairing moving on a bipartite (cubic, square, etc.) lattice with on-site Hubbard interaction U. We show that the model becomes exactly solvable for arbitrary U when the BCS pairing amplitude Δ equals the hopping amplitude t. The nature of the solution is described in detail in this Letter. The construction of the exact solution is parallel to the exactly solvable Kitaev honeycomb model for S=1/2 quantum spins and can be viewed as a generalization of Kitaev's construction to S=1/2 interacting lattice fermions. The BCS-Hubbard model discussed in this Letter is just an example of a large class of exactly solvable lattice fermion models that can be constructed similarly.

Exact Electron-Pairing Ground States of Tight-Binding Models with Local Attractive Interactions

Akinori Tanaka

We present a class of exactly solvable models of correlated electrons. The models are defined in any dimension $d$ and consist of electron-hopping terms and local attractive interactions between electrons. For each even number of electrons less than or equal to $1/(d+1)$-filling, we find the exact ground state in which all electrons form pairs of a certain type, and thus the models exhibit an electron-pair condensation.

Condensate Fragmentation in a New Exactly Solvable Model for Confined Bosons

J. Dukelsky, Peter Schuck

Based on Richardson's exact solution of the multilevel pairing model we derive a new class of exactly solvable models for the finite boson system. As an example we solve a particular Hamiltonian which displays a transition to a fragmented condensate for repulsive pairing interaction.

Fermions in two dimensions and exactly solvable models

Jonas de Woul

This Ph.D. thesis in mathematical physics concerns systems of interacting fermions with strong correlations. For these systems the physical properties can only be described in terms of the collective behavior of the fermions. Moreover, they are often characterized by a close competition between fermion localization versus delocalization, which can result in complex and exotic physical phenomena. Strongly correlated fermion systems are usually modelled by many-body Hamiltonians for which the kinetic- and interaction energy have the same order of magnitude. This makes them challenging to study as the application of conventional computational methods, like mean field- or perturbation theory, often gives unreliable results. Of particular interest are Hubbard-type models, which provide minimal descriptions of strongly correlated fermions. The research of this thesis focuses on such models defined on two-dimensional square lattices. One motivation for this is the so-called high-Tc problem of the cuprate superconductors. A main hypothesis is that there exists an underlying Fermi surface with nearly flat parts, i.e. regions where the surface is straight. It is shown that a particular continuum limit of the lattice system leads to an effective model amenable to computations. This limit is partial in that it only involves fermion degrees of freedom near the flat parts. The result is an effective quantum field theory that is analyzed using constructive bosonization methods. Various exactly solvable models of interacting fermions in two spatial dimensions are also derived and studied.
