Motivated by recent numerical and experimental studies of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on kagome, we formulate a many-body model for fermionic spinons introduced by us earlier [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 187203 (2009)]. The spinons…
The behaviour of massive fermions is analyzed with scalar and vector potentials. A continuous chiral-conjugation transformation decouples the equation for the upper component of the Dirac spinor provided the vector coupling does not exceed…
We study quantum effects of recently discovered kink solitons which are constructed self-consistently by coupling to a single, excited fermion bound state. Our studies are based on the observation that in a semi-classical expansion the…
We consider the interaction of solitons in a biharmonic, beam model analogue of the well-studied $\phi^4$ Klein-Gordon theory. Specifically, we calculate the force between a well separated kink and antikink. Knowing their accelerations as a…
We study quantum information aspects of the fermionic entanglement negativity recently introduced in [Phys. Rev. B 95, 165101 (2017)] based on the fermionic partial transpose. In particular, we show that it is an entanglement monotone under…
The system of interacting spinless fermions hopping on a two-leg ladder in the presence of an external magnetic field is shown to possess a long range order: the bond density wave or the staggered flux phase. In both cases the elementary…
The imbalanced superfluid state of spin-1/2 fermions with s-wave pairing is numerically studied by solving the Bogoliubov-de-Gennes equation at zero temperature in an annular disk geometry with narrow radial width. Two distinct types of…
Weakly coupled Ising chains provide a condensed-matter realization of confinement. In these systems, kinks and antikinks bind into mesons due to an attractive interaction potential that increases linearly with the distance between the…
We consider a Kondo impurity coupled to a fermionic host with a power-law density of states near the Fermi level, rho(epsilon) ~ |epsilon|^r, with exponent r<0. Using both perturbative renormalization group (poor man's scaling) and…
The infinite Heisenberg XXZ spin-(1/2) chain in the gapped antiferromagnetic regime has two degenerate vacua and kink topological excitations (which are also called spinons) interpolating between these vacua as elementary excitations.…
We determine the zero eigenmode spectrum of Minimally Doubled Fermions (MDF), namely in Karsten-Wilczek (KW) and Borici-Creutz (BC) formulations on the 4-dimensional space-time lattice. We employ background gauge fields with integer valued…
On the basis of analytic solutions of Schrodinger and Pauli equations for a uniform magnetic field and a single attractive $\delta({\bf r})$-potential the equations for the bound one-active electron states are discussed. It is vary…
We consider the nonrelativistic quantum mechanics of a model of two spinless fermions interacting via a two-body potential. We introduce quantum fields associated with the two particles as well as the expansion of these fields in asymptotic…
We discuss free Dirac fermions rotating uniformly inside a cylindrical cavity in the presence of background magnetic field parallel to the cylinder axis. We show that in addition to the known bulk states the system contains massive edge…
In the search for QFT's that admit boundstates, we reinvestigate the two dimensional Gross-Neveu model, but with massive fermions. By computing the self-energy for the auxiliary boundstate field and the effective potential, we show that…
We construct a fermion system in a multi-kink-antikink soliton background, and present in an explicit form all its trapped configurations (bound state solutions) as well as scattering states. This is achieved by exploiting an exotic N=4…
Quantum states of a skyrmion in a 2D antiferromagnetic lattice are obtained by quantizing the scaling parameter of Belavin-Polyakov model. Skyrmion classical collapse due to violation of the translational invariance of the continuous…
We investigate the dependence of the number and type of untwisted moduli on the boundary condition vectors of relistic free fermionic strings. The number of moduli is given by six minus the number of complex internal world--sheet fermions…
In topologically massive QED$_{2+1}$ with $N$ flavours, there is the possibility that two equal-charged fermions can form a bound state pair in either s-wave or p-wave. We are concerned about the s-wave pairs and obtain the low energy…
Scalar kinks propagating along the bulk in warped spacetimes provide a thick brane realisation of the braneworld. We consider here, a class of such exact solutions of the full Einstein-scalar system with a sine-Gordon potential and a…
