Quantum critical points and the sign problem

R Mondaini, S Tarat, RT Scalettar - Science, 2022 - science.org
The “sign problem”(SP) is a fundamental limitation to simulations of strongly correlated
matter. It is often argued that the SP is not intrinsic to the physics of particular Hamiltonians …

Colossal dielectric constants in transition-metal oxides

P Lunkenheimer, S Krohns, S Riegg… - The European Physical …, 2009 - Springer
Many transition-metal oxides show very large (“colossal”) magnitudes of the dielectric
constant and thus have immense potential for applications in modern microelectronics and …

New trends in density matrix renormalization

KA Hallberg - Advances in Physics, 2006 - Taylor & Francis
The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) has become a powerful numerical
method that can be applied to low-dimensional strongly correlated fermionic and bosonic …

One-dimensional flat bands in twisted bilayer germanium selenide

DM Kennes, L **an, M Claassen, A Rubio - Nature communications, 2020 - nature.com
Experimental advances in the fabrication and characterization of few-layer materials stacked
at a relative twist of small angle have recently shown the emergence of flat energy bands. As …

Two-site entropy and quantum phase transitions in low-dimensional models

Ö Legeza, J Sólyom - Physical review letters, 2006 - APS
We propose a new approach to study quantum phase transitions in low-dimensional lattice
models. It is based on studying the von Neumann entropy of two neighboring central sites in …

Quantum critical behavior of the one-dimensional ionic Hubbard model

SR Manmana, V Meden, RM Noack… - Physical Review B …, 2004 - APS
We study the zero-temperature phase diagram of the half-filled one-dimensional ionic
Hubbard model. This model is governed by the interplay of the on-site Coulomb repulsion …

Cold-atom quantum simulator for string and hadron dynamics in non-Abelian lattice gauge theory

R Dasgupta, I Raychowdhury - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
We propose an analog quantum simulator for simulating real-time dynamics of (1+ 1)-
dimensional non-Abelian gauge theory well within the existing capacity of ultracold-atom …

Interaction-resistant metals in multicomponent Fermi systems

A Richaud, M Ferraretto, M Capone - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We analyze two different fermionic systems that defy Mott localization showing a metallic
ground state at integer filling and very large Coulomb repulsion. The first is a multiorbital …

Universality and critical exponents of the fermion sign problem

R Mondaini, S Tarat, RT Scalettar - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Initial characterizations of the fermion sign problem focused on its evolution with spatial
lattice size L and inverse temperature β, emphasizing the implications of the exponential …

Exploring competing density order in the ionic Hubbard model with ultracold fermions

M Messer, R Desbuquois, T Uehlinger, G Jotzu… - Physical review …, 2015 - APS
We realize and study the ionic Hubbard model using an interacting two-component gas of
fermionic atoms loaded into an optical lattice. The bipartite lattice has a honeycomb …
