Exactly-solvable models derived from a generalized Gaudin algebra

G Ortiz, R Somma, J Dukelsky, S Rombouts - Nuclear Physics B, 2005 - Elsevier
We introduce a generalized Gaudin Lie algebra and a complete set of mutually commuting
quantum invariants allowing the derivation of several families of exactly solvable …

Generalized Elitzur's theorem and dimensional reductions

CD Batista, Z Nussinov - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2005 - APS
We extend Elitzur's theorem to systems with symmetries intermediate between global and
local. In general, our theorem formalizes the idea of dimensional reduction. We apply the …

Liquid-state NMR simulations of quantum many-body problems

C Negrevergne, R Somma, G Ortiz, E Knill… - Physical Review A …, 2005 - APS
Recently developed quantum algorithms suggest that in principle, quantum computers can
solve problems such as simulation of physical systems more efficiently than classical …

Quantum computation, complexity, and many-body physics

RD Somma - arXiv preprint quant-ph/0512209, 2005 - arxiv.org
Recently developed quantum algorithms suggest that quantum computers can solve certain
problems and perform certain tasks more efficiently than conventional computers. Among …

Dimerized phase of ionic Hubbard models

AA Aligia, CD Batista - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2005 - APS
We derive an effective Hamiltonian for the ionic Hubbard model at half filling, extended to
include nearest-neighbor repulsion. Using a spin-particle transformation, the effective model …

Spin gap in chains with hidden symmetries

MN Kiselev, DN Aristov, K Kikoin - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2005 - APS
We investigate the formation of a spin gap in one-dimensional models characterized by
groups with hidden dynamical symmetries. A family of two-parametric models of isotropic …

Entanglement as an observer-dependent concept: an application to quantum phase transitions

G Ortiz, R Somma, H Barnum, E Knill… - Condensed Matter …, 2005 - books.google.com
In 1935 Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen [1] published a Gedanken-experiment that still
surprises us today [2]. Their main observation highlighted a key feature of quantum …

Spin–fermion mappings for even Hamiltonian operators

A Anfossi, A Montorsi - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract We revisit the Jordan–Wigner transformation, showing that—rather than a non-local
isomorphism between different fermionic and spin Hamiltonian operators—it can be viewed …
