One of the challenging features of studying model Hamiltonians with cold atoms in optical lattices is the presence of spatial inhomogeneities induced by the confining potential, which results in the coexistence of different phases. This paper presents Quantum Monte Carlo results comparing meth- ods for confining fermions in two dimensions, including conventional diagonal confinement (DC), a recently proposed off-diagonal confinement (ODC), as well as a trap which produces uniform den- sity in the lattice. At constant entropy and for currently accessible temperatures, we show that the current DC method results in the strongest magnetic signature, primarily because of its judicious use of entropy sinks at the lattice edge. For d-wave pairing, we show that a constant density trap has the more robust signal and that ODC can implement a constant density profile. This feature is important to any prospective search for superconductivity in optical lattices.
We use Monte Carlo methods to study spinons in two-dimensional quantum spin systems, characterizing their intrinsic size $lambda$ and confinement length $Lambda$. We confirm that spinons are deconfined, $Lambda to infty$ and $lambda$ finite, in a res
We construct fixed point lattice models for group supercohomology symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases of fermions in 2+1D. A key feature of our approach is to construct finite depth circuits of local unitaries that explicitly build the ground
An unbiased zero-temperature auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method is employed to analyze the nature of the semimetallic phase of the two-dimensional Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice at half filling. It is shown that the quasiparticle weig
This review is a summary of my work (partially in collaboration with Kurt Schoenhammer) on higher-dimensional bosonization during the years 1994-1996. It has been published as a book entitled Bosonization of interacting fermions in arbitrary dimensio
We use determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulations to study the role of electron-electron interactions on three-dimensional (3D) Dirac fermions based on the $pi$-flux model on a cubic lattice. We show that the Hubbard interaction drives the 3D
