An exact Jordan-Wigner type of transformation is presented in 1D connecting spin-1/2 operators to spinful canonical Fermi operators. The transformation contains two free parameters allowing a broad interconnection possibility in between…
We discuss the dynamic properties of the square-lattice spin-1/2 XY model obtained using the two-dimensional Jordan-Wigner fermionization approach. We argue the relevancy of the fermionic picture for interpreting the neutron scattering…
We demonstrate a generalized notion of eigenstate thermalization for translation-invariant quasifree fermionic models: the vast majority of eigenstates satisfying a finite number of suitable constraints (e.g. fixed energy and particle…
A Dirac fermion model with random axial-vector potential is proposed. At a special strength of randomness, the symmetry of the action is enhanced, which is due to the gauge symmetry \`a la Nishimori. Some exact scaling exponents of…
We use the Jordan-Wigner representation to study dynamic quantities for the spin-1/2 XX chain in a transverse magnetic field. We discuss in some detail the properties of the four-fermion excitation continuum which is probed by the dynamic…
Using the Jordan-Wigner fermionization in two dimensions we obtain the zz wave vector- and frequency-dependent structure factor for the spin-1/2 isotropic XY model on a spatially anisotropic square lattice. We use the obtained results to…
We consider the Farey fraction spin chain, a one-dimensional model defined on (the matrices generating) the Farey fractions. We extend previous work on the thermodynamics of this model by introducing an external field $h$. From rigorous and…
We rederive the conformal anomaly for spin-1/2 fermions by a genuine Feynman graph calculation, which has not been available so far. Although our calculation merely confirms a result that has been known for a long time, the derivation is…
Analytical expressions for the eigenvalues of certain inhomogeneous XY spin chains are computed. These models are rewritten in terms of free-fermion models using a well-known Jordan-Wigner transformation. Finding the spectrum of such models…
Recently a Jordan-Wigner transformation was constructed for spinful fermions at S=1/2 spins in one dimension connecting the spin-1/2 operators to genuine spinful canonical Fermi operators. In the presented paper this exact transformation is…
Motivated by cold-atom experiments and a desire to understand far-from-equilibrium quantum transport, we analytically study the dynamics of spin helices in the one-dimensional $XX$ model. We use a Jordan-Wigner transformation to map the…
We revisit the Jordan-Wigner transformation, showing that --rather than a non-local isomorphism between different fermionic and spin Hamiltonian operators-- it can be viewed in terms of local identities relating different realizations of…
Evolution of the z-component of a single spin in the finite cyclic XY spin 1/2 chain is studied. Initially one selected spin is polarized while other spins are completely unpolarized and uncorrelated. Polarization of the selected spin as a…
We study in this work the ground state entanglement properties of finite XX spin-1/2 chains with random couplings, using Jordan-Wigner transformation. We divide the system into two parts and study reduced density matrices (RDMs) of its…
We construct a finite spin-1/2 chain model (quantum domino) interacting with a Fermi field, capable of emitting a scalar fermion from the last spin in the chain. The chain with dynamics gradually reversing the neighbouring spins emits…
We consider the common spin-1/2 XX-model in one dimension with open boundary conditions and a large but finite number of spins. The system is in thermal equilibrium at times t<0, and is subject to a weak local perturbation (quantum quench)…

We investigate a spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic chain with trimerized exchange couplings relevant to Na$_2$Cu$_3$Ge$_4$O$_{12}$. We show that the low-energy Hilbert space maps onto an effective Heisenberg chain of composite spin-1/2 trimer…
A recently proposed Boltzmann local equilibrium Wigner function for massive spin-1/2 particles is generalized to the case of Fermi-Dirac statistics. The resulting formula ensures the correct normalization of the mean polarization vector and…
