Exact boson mapping of the reduced BCS pairing Hamiltonian

Abstract

An exact boson mapping of the reduced BCS (equal strength) pairing Hamiltonian is considered. In the mapping, fermion pair operators are mapped exactly to the corresponding bosons. The image of the mapping results in a Bose-Hubbard model with level dependent hopping. Though the resultant Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian is non-Hermitian, all eigenvalues are real when Uk/t< 1, where k is the total number of bosons. When U/t=1, a part of spectrum of the Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian corresponds exactly to the whole spectrum of the reduced BCS pairing Hamiltonian.

Exact boson mapping of the nuclear pairing Hamiltonian

Feng Pan, Jerry Paul Draayer

An exact boson mapping of the deformed mean-field plus equal strength pairing Hamiltonian is considered. In the mapping, fermion pair operators are mapped exactly to the corresponding bosons. The mapping occurs at the level of the Richardson-Gaudin equations. The image of the mapping results is a Bose-Hubbard model with level-dependent hopping. Although the resultant Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian is non-Hermitian, a part of spectrum of the Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian with U/t = 1 determined by the corresponding Richardson-Gaudin (Bethe ansatz) equations corresponds exactly to the whole spectrum of the pairing Hamiltonian. © 2009 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Exact solutions of Nilsson mean-field plus various type of pairing interactions are briefly reviewed. Some even-odd mass differences and moment of inertia of low-lying states for rare earth and actinide nuclei calculated in nearest-orbit pairing and extended pairing models and comparison with the corresponding experimental data are shown.

Exact, finite, and Hermitian fermion-pair-to-boson mapping

Calvin W. Johnson, Joseph N. Ginocchio

We discuss a general, exact (in that matrix elements are preserved) mapping of fermion pairs to bosons, and find a simple factorization of the boson representation of fermion operators. This leads to boson Hamiltonians that are Hermitian and finite, with no more than two-body operators if the fermion Hamiltonian has at most two-body operators, and one-body boson transition operators if the fermion transition operator is one-body.

Exact Solution of the Bose-Hubbard Model with Unidirectional Hopping

Mingchen Zheng, Yi Qiao, Yupeng Wang +2 more

A one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model with unidirectional hopping is shown to be exactly solvable. Applying the algebraic Bethe ansatz method, we prove the integrability of the model and derive the Bethe ansatz equations. The exact eigenvalue spectrum can be obtained by solving these equations. The distribution of Bethe roots reveals the presence of a superfluid-Mott insulator transition at the ground state, and the critical point is determined. By adjusting the boundary parameter, we demonstrate the existence of a non-Hermitian skin effect even in the presence of interaction, but it is completely suppressed for the Mott insulator state in the thermodynamical limit. Our result represents a new class of exactly solvable non-Hermitian many-body systems, which has no Hermitian correspondence and can be used as a benchmark for various numerical techniques developed for non-Hermitian many-body systems.

From the Shell Model to the Interacting Boson Model

Joseph N. Ginocchio, Calvin W. Johnson

Starting from a general, microscopic fermion-pair-to-boson mapping of a complete fermion space that preserves Hermitian conjugation, we show that the resulting infinite and non-convergent boson Hamilitonian can be factored into a finite (e.g., a 1 + 2-body fermion Hamiltonian is mapped to a 1 + 2-body boson Hamiltonian) image Hamilitonian times the norm operator, and it is the norm operator that is infinite and non-convergent. We then truncate to a collective boson space and we give conditions under which the exact boson images of finite fermion operators are also finite in the truncated basis.

Pair theory of the Hubbard Hamiltonian

H. Barentzen

A detailed account is given of a recently developed pair theory of the Hubbard Hamiltonian for the case of a half-filled band. The resulting pair Hamiltonian is an exact reformulation of the original Hubbard Hamiltonian in terms of pair operators which satisfy elementary boson commutation relations. The Hamiltonian takes the familiar form of a sum of a quadratic part representing independent-pair energies and a quartic part representing pair interactions. The matrix elements entering the pair Hamiltonian are the pair energies and products of pair wave functions, which are formally given as the solutions of a certain eigenvalue equation. By the solving of the eigenvalue problem, explicit analytical expressions are obtained for both pair energies and wave functions for an arbitrary number of dimensions. For the case $M=1$, where $M$ is the number of spin-down electrons, pair interactions do not enter since there is only one electron-hole pair, and the exact energies of the Hubbard Hamiltonian are obtained. This will be explicitly verified for the one-dimensional case; here we demonstrate that the pair energies agree with the exact energies found by other authors for this case.
