Nonreciprocity of spin wave propagation is a well-known consequence of antisymmetric exchange contributions possible in magnetic spin systems that lack inversion symmetry. In this case, it is possible for the energy of a state to depend on…
The ground state ensemble of the highly frustrated pyrochlore-lattice antiferromagnet can be mapped to a coarse-grained ``polarization'' field satisfying a zero-divergence condition From this it follows that the correlations of this field,…
This work shows that a strongly correlated phase which is gapped to collective spin excitations but gapless to charge fluctuations emerges as a universal feature in one-dimensional fermionic systems obeying certain symmetries. Namely,…
In this work we study the possible occurrence of topological insulators for 2D fermions of high spin. They can be realized in cold fermion systems with ground-state atomic spin $F>\tfrac{1}{2}$, if the optical potential is properly…
An isotropic anti-ferromagnetic quantum state on a square lattice is characterized by symmetry arguments only. By construction, this quantum state is the result of an underlying valence bond structure without breaking any symmetry in the…
We analyze the behavior of cold spin-1 particles with antiferromagnetic interactions in a one-dimensional optical lattice using density matrix renormalization group calculations. Correlation functions and the dimerization are shown and we…
We investigate an imbalanced mixture composed of two-color fermions and scalar bosons in the hard-core limit, considering repulsive and attractive interspecies and intraspecies interactions. The interplay between commensurability, repulsive…
Possible anisotropic spin singlet pairings in Bi$_2$X$_3$ (X is Se or Te) are studied. Among six pairings compatible with the crystal symmetry, two novel pairings show nontrivial surface Andreev bound states, which form flat bands and could…
Motivated by recent experiments on molecular quantum dots we investigate the relaxation of pure spin states when coupled to metallic leads. Under suitable conditions these systems are well described by a ferromagnetic Kondo model. Using two…
We show that the singlet fraction $p_s$ and total magnetisation (or polarisation) $m$ can bound the minimum concurrence in an ensemble of spins. We identify $p_s > (1-m^2)/2$ as a sufficient and tight condition for bipartite entanglement.…
We consider the $O(3)$ nonlinear sigma model with the $\theta$-term and its linear counterpart in 1+1D. The model has discrete time-reflection and space-reflection symmetries at any $\theta$, and enjoys the periodicity in $\theta\rightarrow…
This article is a pedagogical review of theoretical studies of noncentrosymmetric superconductors with particular emphasis on the role played by electron correlation, which is important for heavy fermion systems. We survey unique properties…
We introduce the boundary effect on the ground state as an attribute of general local spin systems that restricts the correlations in the ground state. To this end, we introduce what we call a boundary effect function, which characterises…
We present an exact analytical solution of the fundamental systems of quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 fermions with infinite repulsion for arbitrary confining potential. The eigenfunctions are constructed by the combination of Gireardeau's…
In view of the numerous examples in the literature it is attempted to outline a theory of Heisenberg spin systems possessing dimerized ground states (``DGS systems") which comprises all known examples. Whereas classical DGS systems can be…
A 1977 theorem of T. Harris states that an attractive spin system preserves the class of associated probability measures. We study analogues of this result for measures that satisfy various conditional positive correlations properties. In…
We study the quantum phase transition occurring in an infinite homogeneous system of spin 1/2 fermions in a non-relativistic context. As an example we consider neutrons interacting through a simple spin-spin Heisenberg force. The two…
Anderson model is an important model in the theory of strongly correlated electron system. In this study, we explore the ground state of this model and the concept of electron correlation by bipartite lattice and prove rigorously theorems…
In materials without an inversion center of symmetry the spin degeneracy of the conducting band is lifted by an antisymmetric spin orbit coupling (ASOC). Under such circumstances, spin and parity cannot be separately used to classify the…
We give a combinatorial characterization of generic frameworks that are minimally rigid under the additional constraint of maintaining symmetry with respect to a finite order rotation or a reflection. To establish these results we develop a…
