We study how a system of one-dimensional spin-1/2 fermions at temperatures well below the Fermi energy approaches thermal equilibrium. The interactions between fermions are assumed to be weak and are accounted for within the perturbation theory. In the absence of an external magnetic field, spin degeneracy strongly affects relaxation of the Fermi gas. For sufficiently short-range interactions, the rate of relaxation scales linearly with temperature. Focusing on the case of the system near equilibrium, we linearize the collision integral and find exact solution of the resulting relaxation problem. We discuss the application of our results to the evaluation of the transport coefficients of the one-dimensional Fermi gas.

We study heat transport in a gas of one-dimensional fermions in the presence of a small temperature gradient. At temperatures well below the Fermi energy there are two types of relaxation processes in this system, with dramatically different relaxation rates. As a result, in addition to the usual thermal conductivity, one can introduce the thermal conductivity of the gas of elementary excitations, which quantifies the dissipation in the system in the broad range of frequencies between the two relaxation rates. We develop a microscopic theory of these transport coefficients in the limit of weak interactions between the fermions.
We study the viscous properties of a system of weakly interacting spin-$frac{1}{2}$ fermions in one dimension. Accounting for the effect of interactions on the quasiparticle energy spectrum, we obtain the bulk viscosity of this system at low temperatures. Our result is valid for frequencies that are small compared with the rate of fermion backscattering. For frequencies larger than this exponentially small rate, the excitations of the system become decoupled from the center of mass motion, and the fluid is described by two-fluid hydrodynamics. We calculate the three transport coefficients required to describe viscous dissipation in this regime.
We consider a one-dimensional gas of spin-1/2 fermions interacting through $delta$-function repulsive potential of an arbitrary strength. For the case of all fermions but one having spin up, we calculate time-dependent two-point correlation function of the spin-down fermion. This impurity Greens function is represented in the thermodynamic limit as an integral of Fredholm determinants of integrable linear integral operators.
Donors in silicon can now be positioned with an accuracy of about one lattice constant, making it possible in principle to form donor arrays for quantum computation or quantum simulation applications. However the multi-valley character of the silicon conduction band combines with central cell corrections to the donor state Hamiltonian to translate atomic scale imperfections in donor placement into strongly disordered inter-donor hybridization. We present a simple model that is able to account accurately for central-cell corrections, and use it to assess the impact of donor-placement disorder on donor array properties in both itinerant and localized limits.
By exploring a phase space hydrodynamics description of one-dimensional free Fermi gas, we discuss how systems settle down to steady states described by the generalized Gibbs ensembles through quantum quenches. We investigate time evolutions of the Fermions which are trapped in external potentials or a circle for a variety of initial conditions and quench protocols. We analytically compute local observables such as particle density and show that they always exhibit power law relaxation at late times. We find a simple rule which determines the power law exponent. Our findings are, in principle, observable in experiments in an one dimensional free Fermi gas or Tonks gas (Bose gas with infinite repulsion).
