Qubits are neither fermions nor bosons. A Fock space description of qubits leads to a mapping from qubits to parafermions: particles with a hybrid boson-fermion quantum statistics. We study this mapping in detail, and use it to provide a…
We study a massive Thirring-like model in 2-dimensional space-time, which contains fermions with arbitrary number (N) of different species. This model is an extension of that of a previous paper, where we have considered two-species case.…
We investigate many-body phase diagrams of atomic boson-fermion mixtures loaded in the two-dimensional optical lattice. Bosons mediate an attractive, finite-range interaction between fermions, leading to fermion pairing phases of different…
In this article, we explore the inconsistencies in the physics of fermionic oscillators and propose potential solutions to address them. By rigorously deriving the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian from first principles, we aim to provide a…
Quantum walks on lattices can give rise to relativistic wave equations in the long-wavelength limit, but going beyond the single-particle case has proven challenging, especially in more than one spatial dimension. We construct quantum…
Correlations between a composite boson and a fermion pair are considered in the context of the crossover theory of fermionic to bosonic superfluidity. It is shown that such correlations are the minimal ingredients needed in a many-body…
One-dimensional quantum systems admit duality relations that put hard core spinless bosons and fermions in one-to-one correspondence via Girardeau's mapping theorem. The simplest models of soft bosons interacting via zero-range potentials…
Quantum systems invariant under particle exchange are either Bosons or Fermions, even though quantum theory in principle admits more general behavior under permutations. But why do we not observe such "paraparticles" in nature? The analysis…
We present a model that generalizes the Bose-Fermi mapping for strongly correlated 1D bosons in an optical lattice, to cases in which the average number of atoms per site is larger than one. This model gives an accurate account of…
This thesis presents a set of studies on atomic systems where quantum effects are particularly relevant. These studies have been developed by applying a variety of tools from many-body physics. First of all, we have studied the prospects…
We address the question of identifying degrees of freedom for quantum systems. Typically, quasi-particle descriptions of correlated matter are based upon the canonical algebras of bosons or fermions. Here we highlight that a special class…
Dualities provide deep insight into physics by relating two seemingly distinct theories. Here we propose and elaborate on a novel duality between bosonic and fermionic theories in four spacetime dimensions. Starting with a Euclidean lattice…
In this four-part prospectus, we first give a brief introduction to the motivation for studying entanglement entropy and some recent development. Then follows a summary of our recent work about entanglement entropy in states with…
We study generic properties of strongly interacting matter at finite density as relevant to heavy-ion collisions at moderate beam energies or the physics of neutron stars and their mergers. Because of the fermion-sign problem in lattice…
The operator algebra of fermionic modes is isomorphic to that of qubits, the difference between them is twofold: the embedding of subalgebras corresponding to mode subsets and multiqubit subsystems on the one hand, and the parity…
We propose a new formalism of quantum subsystems which allows to unify the existing and new methods of reduced description of quantum systems. The main mathematical ingredients are completely positive maps and correlation functions. In this…
Light enables manipulating many-body states of matter, and atoms trapped in optical lattices is a prominent example. However, quantum properties of light are completely neglected in all quantum gas experiments. Extending methods of quantum…
Collision of quantum particles remains an effective way of probing their mutual statistics. Colliders based on quantum point contacts in quantum Hall edge states have been successfully used to probe the statistics of the underlying quantum…
Quantum matter in three spatial dimensions is observed to consist exclusively of bosons and fermions. Whether this empirical fact follows from basic consistency requirements of quantum theory itself or must be imposed as an additional…
Non-Hermitian systems have attracted considerable interest in recent years owing to their unique topological properties that are absent in Hermitian systems. While such properties have been thoroughly characterized in free fermion models,…
