The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model provides an uncommon example of a chaotic theory that can be analysed analytically. In the deep infrared limit, the original model has an emergent conformal (reparametrisation) symmetry that is broken both…
The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model describes interacting fermionic zero modes in zero spatial dimensions, e.g. quantum dot, with interactions strong enough to completely washout quasiparticle excitations in the infrared. In this paper, we…
Given a class of $q$-local Hamiltonians, is it possible to find a simple variational state whose energy is a finite fraction of the ground state energy in the thermodynamic limit? Whereas product states often provide an affirmative answer…
We consider a supersymmetric SYK-like model without quenched disorder that is built by coupling two kinds of fermionic N=1 tensor-valued superfields, "quarks" and "mesons". We prove that the model has a well-defined large-N limit in which…

In this letter we construct a large-N exactly solvable model to study the interplay between interaction and topology, by connecting Sacheve-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model with constant hopping. The hopping forms a band structure that can exhibit…
We study a dual flavor fermion model where each of the flavors form a Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) system with arbitrary and possibly distinct $q$-body interactions. The crucial new element is an arbitrary all-to-all $r$-body interaction between…
We derive field theory descriptions for measurement-induced phase transitions in free fermion systems. We focus on a multi-flavor Majorana chain, undergoing Hamiltonian evolution with continuous monitoring of local fermion parity operators.…

We analytically evaluate the moments of the spectral density of the $q$-body Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, and obtain order $1/N^2$ corrections for all moments, where $N$ is the total number of Majorana fermions. To order $1/N$, moments…
A fermionic random matrix model, which is a 0-dimensional version of the SYK model with replicas, is considered. The replica-off-diagonal correlation functions vanish at finite N, but we show that they do not vanish in the large N limit due…
We consider $n$ free Majorana fermions probing a SYK system comprising of $N$ Majorana fermions. We solve the full system in deep infrared and in large $N$ (as well as large $n$) limit. The essential physics of the SYK system is not…
We propose a closed form for the statistical distribution of non-interacting Majorana fermions at low temperature. Majorana particles often appear in the contemporary many-body literature in the Kitaev, Fu-Kane, or Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models,…
Determinant Quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) is a powerful numerical technique to study many-body fermionic systems. In recent years, several classes of sign-free (SF) models have been discovered, where the notorious sign problem can be…
The nonlinear supermatrix $\sigma $-model is widely used to understand the physics of Anderson localization and the level statistics in noninteracting disordered electron systems. In contrast to the general belief that the supersymmetry…
This paper considers a type of generalized large $q$ SYK models which include multi-body interactions between Majorana fermions. We derive an effective action in the limit of large $N$ and large $q$ (with ${~q^2\over N} $ small), and find a…

Topological states of matter present a wide variety of striking new phenomena. Prominent among these is the fractionalisation of electrons into unusual particles: Majorana fermions [1], Laughlin quasiparticles [2] or magnetic monopoles [3].…
We analyze the phase diagram of the Yukawa-Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, which describes complex fermions randomly interacting with real bosons via a Yukawa coupling, at finite temperatures and varying fermion density. In a recent work [Phys.…
We classify the sign-problem-free relativistic fermion actions on the basis of the Majorana representation. In the Majorana representation, the sign-problem-free condition is given by the semi-positivity of a Pfaffian. We show that the…
