Graph-theory treatment of one-dimensional strongly repulsive fermions


الملخص بالإنكليزية

One-dimensional atomic mixtures of fermions can effectively realize spin chains and thus constitute a clean and controllable platform to study quantum magnetism. Such strongly correlated quantum systems are also of sustained interest to quantum simulation and quantum computation due to their computational complexity. In this article, we exploit spectral graph theory to completely characterize the symmetry properties of one-dimensional fermionic mixtures in the strong interaction limit. We also develop a powerful method to obtain the so-called Tan contacts associated with certain symmetry classes. In particular, compared to brute force diagonalization that is already virtually impossible for a moderate number of fermions, our analysis enables us to make unprecedented efficient predictions about the energy gap of complex spin mixtures. Our theoretical results are not only of direct experimental interest, but also provide important guidance for the design of adiabatic control protocols in strongly correlated fermion mixtures.
