We consider electrons in two dimensions in a strong magnetic field at half filling of the lowest Landau level using the Chern-Simons approach. Starting from a lattice Hamiltonian for the electrons, we derive a path integral (PI) formulation…
The model of Composite Fermions for describing interacting electrons in two dimensions in the presence of a magnetic field is described. In this model, charged Fermions are combined with an even number of magnetic flux quanta in such a way…
A coherent state path integral of anti-commuting fields is considered for a two-band, semiconductor-related solid which is driven by a ultrashort, classical laser field. We describe the generation of exciton quasi-particles from the driving…
Using a composite fermion picture, we study the lateral transport between two two-dimensional electron gases, at filling factor 1/2, separated by a potential barrier. In the mean field approximation, composite fermions far from the barrier…
We describe a new path integral approach to strongly correlated fermion systems, considering the Hubbard model as a specific example. Our approach is based on the introduction of spin-particle-hole coherent states which generalize the…
We study relativistic fermionic systems in $3+1$ spacetime dimensions at finite chemical potential and zero temperature, from a path-integral point of view. We show how to properly account for the $i\varepsilon$ term that projects on the…
The effects of interactions in a 2D electron system in a strong magnetic field of two degenerate Landau levels with opposite spins and at filling factors 1/2 are studied. Using the Chern-Simons gauge transformation, the system is mapped to…
Path-integral expressions for one-particle propagators in scalar and fermionic field theories are derived, for arbitrary mass. This establishes a direct connection between field theory and specific classical point-particle models. The role…
We clarify the path integral calculation, recently suggested by Golubev and Zaikin, and show, contrary to their claim, that quasiparticles become fully coherent quantum particles in the $T \to 0$ limit. The important physical point is the…
The exchange antisymmetry between identical fermions gives rise to the well known fermion sign problem, in the form of large cancellation between positive and negative contribution to the partition function, making any simulation methods…
A path integration formulation for the finite density and temperature problems is shown to be consistent with the thermodynamics using an 8 component ``real'' representation for the fermion fields by applying it to a free fermion system. A…
Almost all quantum Hall effect to date can be understood as {\em integral} quantum Hall effect of appropriate particles, namely electrons or composite fermions. This paper investigates theoretically the feasibility of nested states of…
Mean-field molecular dynamics based on path integrals is used to approximate canonical quantum observables for particle systems consisting of nuclei and electrons. A computational bottleneck is the sampling from the Gibbs density of the…
We consider a clean two-dimensional interacting electron gas subject to a random perpendicular magnetic field, h({\bf r}). The field is nonquantizing, in the sense, that {\cal N}_h-a typical flux into the area \lambda_{\text{\tiny F}}^2 in…
Understanding the behavior of interacting fermions is of fundamental interest in many fields ranging from condensed matter to high energy physics. Developing numerically efficient and accurate simulation methods is an indispensable part of…
Self-energy corrections to the energy levels of bound electrons are calculated in the framework of path integrals. We arrive at the full fermion propagator, using methods of functional integrals, in the form of Schwinger-Dyson equation…
We review the path integral method wherein quantum systems are mapped with Feynman's path integrals onto a classical system of "ring-polymers" and then simulated with the Monte Carlo technique. Bose or Fermi statistics correspond to…
We study quantum interference effects due to electron motion on a three-dimensional cubic lattice in a continuously-tunable magnetic field of arbitrary orientation and magnitude. These effects arise from the interference between magnetic…
For distinguishable particles it is well known that Brownian motion and a Feynman-Kac functional can be used to calculate the path integral (for imaginary times) for a general class of scalar potentials. In order to treat identical…
We study effects of electron correlation on the transport through a small interacting system connected to reservoirs using an effective Hamiltonian which describes the free quasi-particles of a Fermi liquid. The effective Hamiltonian is…
