We study a class of models in which $N$ flavors of massless fermions on the half line are coupled by an arbitrary orthogonal matrix to $N$ rotors living on the boundary. Integrating out the rotors, we find the exact partition function and…

We consider a quantum mechanical three-particle system made of two identical fermions of mass one and a different particle of mass $ m $, where each fermion interacts via a zero-range force with the different particle. In particular we…

Unitary matrices arise in many ways in physics, in particular as a time evolution operator. For a periodically driven system one frequently wishes to compute a Floquet Hamilonian that should be a Hermitian operator $H$ such that…
We study the ground states of lattice Hamiltonians that are invariant under permutations, in the limit where the number of lattice sites, N -> \infty. For spin systems, these are product states, a fact that follows directly from the quantum…
In this paper we study the evolution operator of a time-dependent Hamiltonian in the three level system. The evolution operator is based on $SU(3)$ and its dimension is $8$, so we obtain three complex Riccati differential equations…
Compared with time independent Hamiltonians, the dynamics of generic quantum Hamiltonians $H(t)$ are complicated by the presence of time ordering in the evolution operator. In the context of digital quantum simulation, this difficulty…
There is increased interest in time-dependent (non-autonomous) Hamiltonians, stemming in part from the active field of Floquet quantum materials. Despite this, dispersive time-decay bounds, which reflect energy transport in such systems,…
