We analyze quantum transport of charged fermionic particles in the tight-binding lattice connecting two particle reservoirs (the leads). If the lead chemical potentials are different they create an electric field which tilts the lattice. We…

We establish that the interplay of itinerant fermions with localized magnetic moments on a checkerboard lattice leads to magnetic flux-phases. For weak itineracy the flux-phase is coplanar and the electronic dispersion takes the shape of…
We set up a general structure for the analysis of ``frustration-free ground states'', or ``zero-energy states'', i.e., states minimizing each term in a lattice interaction individually. The nesting of the finite volume ground state spaces…
The one-dimensional attractive lattice fermion gas equivalent to the Heisenberg-Ising spin 1/2 chain is studied for a ring geometry threaded by magnetic flux. We find that for charged fermions having interaction strength $\Delta=\cos(\pi /…

Quantum phase transition at the saturation field is studied for a class of frustrated quantum antiferromagnets. The considered models include (i) the $J_1$-$J_2$ frustrated square-lattice antiferromagnet with $J_2={1/2}J_1$ and (ii) the…
