Assembly of 2N entangled fermions into multipartite composite bosons

Quantum Physics 2019-09-11 v1

Abstract

An even number of fermions can behave in a bosonic way. The simplest scenario involves two fermions which can form a single boson. But four fermions can either behave as two bipartite bosons or further assemble into a single four-partite bosonic molecule. In general, for 2N fermions there are many possible arrangements into composite bosons. The question is: what determines which fermionic arrangement is going to be realized in a given situation and can such arrangement be considered truly bosonic? This work aims to find the answer to the above question. We propose an entanglement-based method to assess bosonic quality of fermionic arrangements and apply it to study how the ground state of the extended one-dimensional Hubbard model changes as the strength of intra-particle interactions increases.
