Spinless fermions on highly frustrated lattices are characterized by a lowest single-particle band which is completely flat. Concrete realizations are provided by the sawtooth chain and the kagome lattice. For these models a real-space…
In the linear moose framework, which naturally emerges in deconstruction models, we discuss the effect of direct couplings between the left-handed fermions living on the boundary of the chain and the gauge fields in the internal sites. This…
We study the one-dimensional asymmetric simple exclusion process on the lattice $\{1, \dots,N\}$ with creation/annihilation at the boundaries. The boundary rates are time dependent and change on a slow time scale $N^{-a}$ with $a>0$. We…
A class of kinetically constrained models with reflection symmetry is proposed as an extension of the Fredrickson-Andersen model. It is proved that the proposed model on the square lattice exhibits a freezing transition at a non-trivial…
The effect of nearest-neighbor coupling on the thermodynamic and dynamical properties of the ferromagnetic Hamiltonian Mean Field model (HMF) is studied. For a range of antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor coupling, a canonical first order…
Spinless fermions on a lattice with nearest-neighbor repulsion serve as a toy version Hubbard model, and have a symmetry-broken even/odd superlattice at half-filling. At infinite repulsion, doped holes form charged stripes which are…
We study a time-dependent non-Hermitian extension of the Sch\"utte-Da~Provid\^encia spin-boson Hamiltonian with complex couplings. A time-dependent Dyson map containing a squeezing transformation maps the model, in an admissible bounded…
We study families of fermionic field states in non-inertial frames which show no entanglement survival in the infinite acceleration limit. We generalise some recent results where some particular examples of such states where found. We…
We study non-hermitian many-body physics in the interacting Hatano-Nelson model with open boundary condition. The violation of reciprocity, resulting from an imaginary vector potential, induces the non-hermitian skin-effect and causes…
We show that the bulk-boundary correspondence for topological insulators can be modified in the presence of non-Hermiticity. We consider a one-dimensional tight-binding model with gain and loss as well as long-range hopping. The system is…
The field of quantum simulations in ultra-cold atomic gases has been remarkably successful. In principle it allows for an exact treatment of a variety of highly relevant lattice models and their emergent phases of matter. But so far there…
We study the stochastic Ising model on finite graphs with n vertices and bounded degree and analyze the effect of boundary conditions on the mixing time. We show that for all low enough temperatures, the spectral gap of the dynamics with…
We employ a mathematical framework based on the Riemann-Hilbert approach developed in Ref. [1] to study logarithmic negativity of two intervals of free fermions in the case where the size of the intervals as well as the distance between…
The engineering of topological non-trivial states of matter, using cold atoms, has made great progress in the last decade. Driven by experimental successes, it has become of major interest in the cold atom community. In this work we…
We discuss a no-boundary proposal for a subregion of the universe. In the classical approximation, this density matrix involves finding a specific classical solution of the equations of motion with no boundary. Beyond the usual no boundary…
Evolution of a background space-time metric and sub-horizon matter density perturbations in the Universe is numerically analyzed in viable $f(R)$ models of present dark energy and cosmic acceleration. It is found that viable models…
We develop a new method for finding the quantum probability density of arrival at the detector. The evolution of the quantum state restricted to the region outside of the detector is described by a restricted Hamiltonian that contains a…
The bulk-boundary correspondence predicts the existence of boundary modes localized at the edges of topologically nontrivial systems. The wavefunctions of hermitian boundary modes can be obtained as the eigenmodes of a modified Jackiw-Rebbi…
We study the line ensembles of non-crossing Brownian bridges above a hard wall, each tilted by the area of the region below it with geometrically growing pre-factors. This model, which mimics the level lines of the $(2+1)$D SOS model above…
As has long been known, it is energetically favorable for massive fermions to deform the homogeneous vacuum around them, giving rise to extended bag-like objects. We study this phenomenon non-perturbatively in a model field theory, the…
