We consider close-packed dimers, or perfect matchings, on two-dimensional regular lattices. We review known results and derive new expressions for the free energy, entropy, and the molecular freedom of dimers for a number of lattices…
We construct a class of lattices in three and higher dimensions for which the number of dimer coverings can be determined exactly using elementary arguments. These lattices are a generalization of the two-dimensional kagome lattice, and the…

We consider ergodic translation-invariant Gibbs measures for the dimer model (i.e. perfect matchings) on the hexagonal lattice. The complement to a dimer configuration is a fully-packed loop configuration: each vertex has degree two. This…

We introduce quantum dimer models on lattices made of corner-sharing triangles. These lattices includes the kagome lattice and can be defined in arbitrary geometry. They realize fully disordered and gapped dimer-liquid phase with…
We consider translationally invariant tight-binding all-bands-flat networks which lack dispersion. In a recent work [arXiv:2004.11871] we derived the subset of these networks which preserves nonlinear caging, i.e. keeps compact excitations…
We consider fermionic fully-packed loop and quantum dimer models which serve as effective low-energy models for strongly correlated fermions on a checkerboard lattice at half and quarter filling, respectively. We identify a large number of…
The ground-state properties of two-component bosonic mixtures in a one-dimensional optical lattice are studied both from few- and many-body perspectives. We rely directly on a microscopic Hamiltonian with attractive inter-component and…
We extend our density matrix embedding theory (DMET) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 109 186404 (2012)] from lattice models to the full chemical Hamiltonian. DMET allows the many-body embedding of arbitrary fragments of a quantum system, even when such…
We use computational method to investigate the number of ways to pack dimers on \emph{odd-by-odd} lattices. In this case, there is always a single vacancy in the lattices. We show that the dimer configuration numbers on $(2k+1) \times…
This paper studies non-crossing geometric perfect matchings. Two such perfect matchings are \emph{compatible} if they have the same vertex set and their union is also non-crossing. Our first result states that for any two perfect matchings…
We report numerical ground states for the dipolar XY spin model, which describes extended antiferromagnetic interactions in two-dimensional arrays of polar molecules and two-level Rydberg atoms. Carrying out large-scale density matrix…
