Chains of first-order SUSY transformations for the spin equation are studied in detail. It is shown that the transformation chains are related with a olynomial pseudo-supersymmetry of the system. Simple determinant formulas for the final…

We analyze both the stationary and time-dependent properties of molecular states in atomic chains on a surface, some of which are composed of atomic states decoupled from the substrate - a phenomenon analogous to dark states in quantum dot…

We prove that translationally invariant Hamiltonians of a chain of $n$ qubits with nearest-neighbour interactions have two seemingly contradictory features. Firstly in the limit $n\rightarrow\infty$ we show that any translationally…
