We present numerical methods to solve the Generalized Hartree-Fock theory for fermionic systems in lattices, both in thermal equilibrium and out of equilibrium. Specifically, we show how to determine the covariance matrix corresponding to…
Interesting phases of quantum matter often arise when the constituent particles -- electrons in solids -- interact strongly. Such strongly interacting systems are however quite rare and occur only in extreme environments of low spatial…
We study the spectral and magnetic properties of one-dimensional lattices filled with 2 to 4 fermions (with spin 1/2) per lattice site. We use a generalized Hubbard model that takes account all interactions on a lattice site, and solve the…
Fermions on the lattice have bosonic excitations generated from the underlying periodic background. These, the lattice bosons, arise near the empty band or when the bands are nearly full. They do not depend on the nature of the interactions…
We show that, when investigating Wilson-fermions correlation functions on the lattice, one is bound to encounter major difficulties in defining their dispersion relation, even at tree level. The problem is indeed quite general and, although…
We study the domain-wall formalism with additional Majorana mass term for the unwanted zero mode, which has recently been proposed for lattice construction of 4D N=1 super Yang-Mills theory without fine-tuning. Switching off the gauge…

The consequences of CP- and CPT-invariance for production and subsequent decay of Majorana fermions are analytically studied. We derive general symmetry relations for the spin density matrix for production of Majorana fermions by polarized…
We propose an easy-to-build easy-to-detect scheme for realizing Majorana fermions at the ends of a chain of magnetic atoms on the surface of a superconductor. Model calculations show that such chains can be easily tuned between trivial and…
We develop a Hamiltonian formalism for simulating interacting chiral fermions on the lattice while preserving unitarity and locality and without breaking the chiral symmetry. The fermion doubling problem is circumvented by constructing a…
The emergence of Majorana fermion surface states has been studied in several environments. In this paper we discuss the current-voltage characteristics of a Majorana fermion state as a function of the voltage, temperature and magnetic field…
Majorana fermion dynamics may arise at the edge of Kitaev wires or superconductors. Alternatively, it can be engineered by using trapped ions or ultracold atoms in an optical lattice as quantum simulators. This motivates the theoretical…
We consider a nonlocal lattice action for fermions fermion doubling in lattice theories. It is shown, that it is possible to avoid the fermionic doubling in the case of free fermions, but this approach does not reproduce results for the…
Superconductors hosting long-sought excitations called Majorana fermions may be ultimately used as qubits of fault-tolerant topological quantum computers. A crucial challenge toward the topological quantum computer is to implement quantum…
