Fermionization and fractional statistics in the strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose gas

Abstract

We discuss recent results on the relation between the strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose gas and a gas of ideal particles obeying nonmutual generalized exclusion statistics (GES). The thermodynamic properties considered include the statistical profiles, the specific heat and local pair correlations. In the strong coupling limit γ → ∞, the Tonks-Girardeau gas, the equivalence is with Fermi statistics. The deviation from Fermi statistics during boson fermionization for finite but large interaction strength γ is described by the relation α ≈ 1 - 2/γ, where α is a measure of the GES. This gives a quantitative description of the fermionization process. In this sense the recent experimental measurement of local pair correlations in a 1D Bose gas of87Rb atoms also provides a measure of the deviation of the GES parameter α away from the pure Fermi statistics value α=1. Other thermodynamic properties, such as the distribution profiles and the specific heat, are also sensitive to the statistics. They also thus provide a way of exploring fractional statistics in the strongly interacting 1D Bose gas.

Generalized exclusion statistics and degenerate signature of strongly interacting anyons

Murray T. Batchelor, Xin Guan

We show that below the degenerate temperature the distribution profiles of strongly interacting anyons in one-dimension coincide with the most probable distributions of ideal particles obeying generalized exclusion statistics (GES). In the strongly interacting regime the thermodynamics and the local two-particle correlation function derived from the GES are seen to agree for low temperatures with the results derived for the anyon model using the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. The anyonic and dynamical interactions implement a continuous range of GES, providing a signature of strongly interacting anyons, including the strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose gas.

Realization of effective super Tonks-Girardeau gases via strongly attractive one-dimensional Fermi gases

Shu Chen, Xi‐Wen Guan, Xiangguo Yin +2 more

A significant feature of the one-dimensional super Tonks-Girardeau gas is its metastable gas-like state with a stronger Fermi-like pressure than for free fermions which prevents a collapse of atoms. This naturally suggests a way to search for such strongly correlated behavior in systems of interacting fermions in one dimension. We thus show that the strongly attractive Fermi gas without polarization can be effectively described by a super Tonks-Girardeau gas composed of bosonic Fermi pairs with attractive pair-pair interaction. A natural description of such super Tonks-Girardeau gases is provided by Haldane generalized exclusion statistics. In particular, they are equivalent to ideal particles obeying more exclusive statistics than Fermi-Dirac statistics.

Fermionization of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture in a one-dimensional harmonic trap

Bess Fang, Patrizia Vignolo, Christian Miniatura +1 more

We consider a strongly interacting one-dimensional (1D) Bose-Fermi mixture confined in a harmonic trap. It consists of a Tonks-Girardeau (TG) gas (1D Bose gas with repulsive hard-core interactions) and of a noninteracting Fermi gas (1D spin-aligned Fermi gas), both species interacting through hard-core repulsive interactions. Using a generalized Bose-Fermi mapping, we determine the one-body density matrices, exact particle density profiles, momentum distributions, and behavior of the mixture under 1D expansion when opening the trap. In real space, bosons and fermions do not display any phase separation: the respective density profiles extend over the same region and they both present a number of peaks equal to the total number of particles in the trap. In momentum space the bosonic component has the typical narrow TG profile, while the fermionic component shows a broad distribution with fermionic oscillations at small momenta. Due to the large boson-fermion repulsive interactions, both the bosonic and the fermionic momentum distributions decay as $C{p}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$ at large momenta, like in the case of a pure bosonic TG gas. The coefficient $C$ is related to the two-body density matrix and to the bosonic concentration in the mixture. When opening the trap, both momentum distributions ``fermionize'' under expansion and turn into that of a Fermi gas with a particle number equal to the total number of particles in the mixture.

Observation of anyonic thermodynamics and generalized Pauli principle

Fansu Wei, Chi Zhang, Z Zhenyu Ye +4 more

Anyons are quasiparticles with quantum statistics interpolating between those of bosons and fermions. Two distinct manifestations of anyonic behaviour have been theoretically established: fractional exchange statistics where particle exchange can produce any phase, and generalized exclusion statistics which extends the Pauli exclusion principle. While anyons exhibiting fractional exchange statistics have been observed in diverse platforms, experimental realizations of generalized exclusion statistics and direct measurements of its thermodynamic signatures have remained elusive. Here, we realize an anyonic thermodynamic ensemble obeying generalized exclusion statistics and detect its anyonic thermodynamics in a one-dimensional strongly interacting quantum gas. To achieve this, we exploit the bijective mapping between dynamical and statistical interactions in one dimension. By tuning interaction strength and temperature over a wide range, we measure the equation of state and identify clear departures from Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics. These deviations are quantitatively captured by generalized exclusion statistics, providing direct evidence for the generalized Pauli principle. Independent probes of other thermodynamic quantities including pressure and the Tan contact further validate this framework. Our results establish a versatile platform for engineering anyonic exclusion statistics and open the door to thermodynamic applications of anyons in quantum technologies.

One-Dimensional Interacting Anyon Gas: Low-Energy Properties and Haldane Exclusion Statistics

Murray T. Batchelor, Xin Guan, N. Oelkers

The low-energy properties of the one-dimensional anyon gas with a delta-function interaction are discussed in the context of its Bethe ansatz solution. It is found that the anyonic statistical parameter and the dynamical coupling constant induce Haldane exclusion statistics interpolating between bosons and fermions. Moreover, the anyonic parameter may trigger statistics beyond Fermi statistics for which the exclusion parameter alpha is greater than one. The Tonks-Girardeau and the weak coupling limits are discussed in detail. The results support the universal role of alpha in the dispersion relations.

Exclusion Statistics in a two-dimensional trapped Bose gas

S. Viefers, T. H. Hansson, Jon Magne Leinaas

We briefly explain the notion of exclusion statistics and in particular discuss the concept of an ideal exclusion statistics gas. We then review a recent work where it is demonstrated that a two-dimensional Bose gas with repulsive delta function interactions obeys ideal exclusion statistics, with a fractional parameter related to the interaction strength.

We discuss recent results on the relation between the strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose gas and a gas of ideal particles obeying nonmutual generalized exclusion statistics (GES). The thermodynamic properties considered include the statistical profiles, the specific heat and local pair correlations. In the strong coupling limit γ → ∞, the Tonks-Girardeau gas, the equivalence is with Fermi statistics. The deviation from Fermi statistics during boson fermionization for finite but large interaction strength γ is described by the relation α ≈ 1 - 2/γ, where α is a measure of the GES. This gives a quantitative description of the fermionization process. In this sense the recent experimental measurement of local pair correlations in a 1D Bose gas of87Rb atoms also provides a measure of the deviation of the GES parameter α away from the pure Fermi statistics value α=1. Other thermodynamic properties, such as the distribution profiles and the specific heat, are also sensitive to the statistics. They also thus provide a way of exploring fractional statistics in the strongly interacting 1D Bose gas.
