Expansion Dynamics in the One-Dimensional Fermi-Hubbard Model

J. Kajala, Francesco Massel, Päivi Törmä

Expansion dynamics of interacting fermions in a lattice is simulated within the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model, using the essentially exact time-evolving block decimation (TEBD) method. In particular, the expansion of an initial band-insulator state is considered. We analyze the simulation results based on the dynamics of a two-site two-particle system, the so-called Hubbard dimer. Our findings describe essential features of a recent experiment on the expansion of a Fermi gas in a two-dimensional lattice. We show that the Hubbard-dimer dynamics, combined with a two-fluid model for the paired and nonpaired components of the gas, gives an efficient description of the full dynamics. This should be useful for describing dynamical phenomena of strongly interacting Fermions in a lattice in general.Expansion dynamics of interacting fermions in a lattice is simulated within the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model, using the essentially exact time-evolving block decimation (TEBD) method.

One-dimensional three-boson problem with two- and three-body interactions

G. Guijarro, A. Pricoupenko, G. E. Astrakharchik +2 more

We solve the three-boson problem with contact two-and three-body interactions in one dimension and analytically calculate the ground and excited trimer-state energies.Then, by using the diffusion Monte Carlo technique we calculate the binding energy of three dimers formed in a one-dimensional Bose-Bose or Fermi-Bose mixture with attractive interspecies and repulsive intraspecies interactions.Combining these results with our three-body analytics, we extract the three-dimer scattering length close to the dimer-dimer zero crossing.In both considered cases the three-dimer interaction turns out to be repulsive.Our results constitute a concrete proposal for obtaining a one-dimensional gas with a pure three-body repulsion.We solve the three-boson problem with contact two-and three-body interactions in one dimension and analytically calculate the ground and excited trimer-state energies.Then, by using the diffusion Monte Carlo technique we calculate the binding energy of three dimers formed in a one-dimensional Bose-Bose or Fermi-Bose mixture with attractive interspecies and repulsive intraspecies interactions.Combining these results with our three-body analytics, we extract the three-dimer scattering length close to the dimer-dimer zero crossing.In both considered cases the three-dimer interaction turns out to be repulsive.Our results constitute a concrete proposal for obtaining a one-dimensional gas with a pure three-body repulsion.
