Louie, Chair Professor John Clarke Professor Mark Asta Fall 2013 First-principles calculations and model Hamiltonian approaches to electronic and optical properties of defects, interfaces and nanostructures Copyright 2013 by Sangkook Choi Abstract First principles calculations and model Hamiltonian approaches to electronic and optical properties of defects, interfaces and nanostructures By Sangkook Choi Doctor of Philosophy in Physics University of California, Berkeley Professor Steven G. Louie, Chair The dynamics of electrons governed by the Coulomb interaction determines a large portion of the observed phenomena of condensed matter. Thus, the understanding of electronic structure has played a key role in predicting the electronic and optical properties of materials. In this dissertation, I present some important applications of electronic structure theories for the theoretical calculation of these properties. In the first chapter, I review the basics necessary for two complementary electronic structure theories: model Hamiltonian approaches and first principles calculation. In the subsequent chapters, I further discuss the applications of these approaches to nanostructures (chapter II), interfaces (chapter III), and defects (chapter IV). The abstract of each section is as follows. ● Section II-1 The sensitive structural dependence of the optical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes, which are dominated by excitons and tunable by changing diameter and chirality, makes them excellent candidates for optical devices.

  • 8.7 Hubbard Model
    OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 12/6/2019, SPi 356 Models of Strongly Interacting Quantum Matter which is the lower edge of a continuum of excitations whose upper edge is bounded by ω(q) πJ cos (q/2). (8.544) = The continuum of excitations develops because spinons are always created in pairs, and therefore the momentum of the two spinons can be distributed in a continuum of different ways. Neutron scattering experiments on quasi-one-dimensional materials like KCuF3 have corroborated the picture outlined here (see, e.g. Tennant et al.,1995). In dimensions higher than one, separating a !ipped spin into a pair of kinks, or a magnon into a pair of spinons, costs energy, which thus con"nes spinons in dimensions d 2. ≥The next section we constructs the Hubbard model from "rst principles and then show how the Heisenberg model can be obtained from the Hubbard model for half- "lling and in the limit of strong on-site repulsion. 8.7 Hubbard model The Hubbard model presents one of the simplest ways to obtain an understanding of the mechanisms through which interactions between electrons in a solid can give rise to insulating versus conducting, magnetic, and even novel superconducting behaviour. The preceding sections of this chapter more or less neglected these interaction or correlation effects between the electrons in a solid, or treated them summarily in a mean-"eld or quasiparticle approach (cf. sections 8.2 to 8.5). While the Hubbard model was "rst discussed in quantum chemistry in the early 1950s (Pariser and Parr, 1953; Pople, 1953), it was introduced in its modern form and used to investigate condensed matter problems in the 1960s independently by Gutzwiller (1963), Hubbard (1963), and Kanamori (1963).

    Preparing symmetry broken ground states with variational quantum algorithms Nicolas Vogt,∗ Sebastian Zanker, Jan-Michael Reiner, and Michael Marthaler HQS Quantum Simulations GmbH Haid-und-Neu-Straße 7 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany Thomas Eckl and Anika Marusczyk Robert Bosch GmbH Robert-Bosch-Campus 1 71272 Renningen, Germany (Dated: July 16, 2020) One of the most promising applications for near term quantum computers is the simulation of physical quantum systems, particularly many-electron systems in chemistry and condensed matter physics. In solid state physics, finding the correct symmetry broken ground state of an interacting electron system is one of the central challenges. The Variational Hamiltonian Ansatz (VHA), a variational hybrid quantum-classical algorithm especially suited for finding the ground state of a solid state system, will in general not prepare a broken symmetry state unless the initial state is chosen to exhibit the correct symmetry. In this work, we discuss three variations of the VHA designed to find the correct broken symmetry states close to a transition point between different orders. As a test case we use the two-dimensional Hubbard model where we break the symmetry explicitly by means of external fields coupling to the Hamiltonian and calculate the response to these fields. For the calculation we simulate a gate-based quantum computer and also consider the effects of dephasing noise on the algorithms. We find that two of the three algorithms are in good agreement with the exact solution for the considered parameter range. The third algorithm agrees with the exact solution only for a part of the parameter regime, but is more robust with respect to dephasing compared to the other two algorithms.

  • Mott Transition in the Π-Flux SU(4) Hubbard Model on a Square Lattice
    PHYSICAL REVIEW B 97, 195122 (2018) Mott transition in the π-flux SU(4) Hubbard model on a square lattice Zhichao Zhou,1,2 Congjun Wu,2 and Yu Wang1,* 1School of Physics and Technology, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China 2Department of Physics, University of California, San Diego, California 92093, USA (Received 23 March 2018; published 14 May 2018) With increasing repulsive interaction, we show that a Mott transition occurs from the semimetal to the valence bond solid, accompanied by the Z4 discrete symmetry breaking. Our simulations demonstrate the existence of a second-order phase transition, which confirms the Ginzburg-Landau analysis. The phase transition point and the critical exponent η are also estimated. To account for the effect of a π flux on the ordering in the strong-coupling regime, we analytically derive by the perturbation theory the ring-exchange term, which is the leading-order term that can reflect the difference between the π-flux and zero-flux SU(4) Hubbard models.

    Strategies for solving the Fermi-Hubbard model on near-term quantum computers Chris Cade,1, ∗ Lana Mineh,1, 2, 3 Ashley Montanaro,1, 2 and Stasja Stanisic1 1Phasecraft Ltd. 2School of Mathematics, University of Bristol 3Quantum Engineering Centre for Doctoral Training, University of Bristol (Dated: December 1, 2020) The Fermi-Hubbard model is of fundamental importance in condensed-matter physics, yet is extremely chal- lenging to solve numerically. Finding the ground state of the Hubbard model using variational methods has been predicted to be one of the first applications of near-term quantum computers. Here we carry out a detailed analysis and optimisation of the complexity of variational quantum algorithms for finding the ground state of the Hubbard model, including costs associated with mapping to a real-world hardware platform. The depth com- plexities we find are substantially lower than previous work. We performed extensive numerical experiments for systems with up to 12 sites. The results suggest that the variational ansatze¨ we used – an efficient variant of the Hamiltonian Variational ansatz and a novel generalisation thereof – will be able to find the ground state of the Hubbard model with high fidelity in relatively low quantum circuit depth. Our experiments include the effect of realistic measurements and depolarising noise. If our numerical results on small lattice sizes are representative of the somewhat larger lattices accessible to near-term quantum hardware, they suggest that optimising over quantum circuits with a gate depth less than a thousand could be sufficient to solve instances of the Hubbard model beyond the capacity of classical exact diagonalisation.

    Solving strongly correlated electron models on a quantum computer Dave Wecker,1 Matthew B. Hastings,2, 1 Nathan Wiebe,1 Bryan K. Clark,2, 3 Chetan Nayak,2 and Matthias Troyer4 1Quantum Architectures and Computation Group, Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA 98052, USA 2Station Q, Microsoft Research, Santa Barbara, CA 93106-6105, USA 3UIUC 4Theoretische Physik, ETH Zurich, 8093 Zurich, Switzerland One of the main applications of future quantum computers will be the simulation of quantum mod- els. While the evolution of a quantum state under a Hamiltonian is straightforward (if sometimes expensive), using quantum computers to determine the ground state phase diagram of a quantum model and the properties of its phases is more involved. Using the Hubbard model as a prototypical example, we here show all the steps necessary to determine its phase diagram and ground state properties on a quantum computer. In particular, we discuss strategies for efficiently determining and preparing the ground state of the Hubbard model starting from various mean-field states with broken symmetry. We present an efficient procedure to prepare arbitrary Slater determinants as initial states and present the complete set of quantum circuits needed to evolve from these to the ground state of the Hubbard model. We show that, using efficient nesting of the various terms each time step in the evolution can be performed with just O(N) gates and O(log N) circuit depth. We give explicit circuits to measure arbitrary local observables and static and dynamic correlation functions, both in the time and frequency domain. We further present efficient non-destructive ap- proaches to measurement that avoid the need to re-prepare the ground state after each measurement and that quadratically reduce the measurement error.

    The phases of the disordered Bose–Hubbard model with attractive interactions Olli Mansikkam¨aki,Sami Laine, and Matti Silveri Nano and Molecular Systems Research Unit, University of Oulu, P.O. Box 3000, FI-90014 University of Oulu, Finland (Dated: May 27, 2021) We study the quantum ground state phases of the one-dimensional disordered Bose–Hubbard model with attractive interactions, realized by a chain of superconducting transmon qubits or cold atoms. We map the phase diagram using perturbation theory and exact diagonalization. Compared to the repulsive Bose–Hubbard model, the quantum ground state behavior is dramatically different. At strong disorder of the on-site energies, all the bosons localize into the vicinity of a single site, contrary to the Bose glass behavior of the repulsive model. At weak disorder, depending on hopping, the ground state is either superfluid or a W state, which is a multi-site and multi-particle entangled superposition of states where all the bosons occupy a single site. We show that the robustness of the W phase against disorder diminishes as the total number of bosons increases.

[email protected] Abstract In contrast to the Hubbard model, the extended Hubbard model, which additionally ac- counts for non-local interactions, lacks systemic studies of thermodynamic properties especially across the metal-insulator transition. Using a variational principle, we per- form such a systematic study and describe how non-local interactions screen local cor- relations differently in the Fermi-liquid and in the insulator. The thermodynamics reveal that non-local interactions are at least in parts responsible for first-order metal-insulator transitions in real materials. Copyright M. Schüler et al.

This model describes ultracold bosonic atoms confined by a two-dimensional optical lattice and dispersively coupled to a cavity mode with the same wavelength as the lattice. We determine the ground-state phase diagram for a grand-canonical ensemble by means of analytical and numerical methods. Our results mostly agree with the ones reported in Dogra et al. [N. Dogra, F. Brennecke, S. D. Huber, and T. Donner, Phys.Rev.A 94, 023632 (2016)], and have a remarkable qualitative agreement with the quantum Monte Carlo phase diagrams of Flottat et al. [T. Flottat, L. de Forges de Parny, F. Hébert, V. G. Rousseau, and G. G. Batrouni, Phys. Rev. B 95, 144501 (2017)]. The salient differences concern the stability of the supersolid phases, which we discuss in detail. Finally, we discuss differences and analogies between the ground-state properties of all-connected bosons with the ones predicted for repulsively interacting dipolar bosons in two dimensions.

  • Phase Diagram of the Bose Hubbard Model
    NSFITP-93-93 Phase diagram of the bose Hubbard model J. K. Freericks1 and H. Monien2. Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 (Dated: August, 1993) The first reliable analytic calculation of the phase diagram of the bose gas on a d-dimensional lattice with on-site repulsion is presented. In one dimension, the analytic calculation is in excellent agreement with the numerical Monte Carlo results. In higher dimensions, the deviations from the Monte Carlo calculations are larger, but the correct shape of the Mott insulator lobes is still obtained. Explicit expressions for the energy of the Mott and the “defect” phase are given in a strong-coupling expansion. PACS numbers: Pacs: 67.40.Db, 05.30.Jp, 05.70.Fh Strongly interacting quantum systems continue to challenge theoretical physics. Fermionic examples of strong correlations include high temperature superconductors, heavy fermion materials and metal-insulator transitions. The study of these systems has been confined to either numerical simulations which are plagued by finite-size effects (with the notable exception of the infinite-dimensional expansion) or uncontrollable approximations. Similar problems arise in strongly interacting bosonic systems which have attracted a lot of recent interest3–6. Physical realizations include short correlation length superconductors, granular superconductors, Josephson arrays, and the dynamics of flux lattices in type II superconductors. The relevant physics of these problems is contained in the bose Hubbard Hamiltonian which describes the competition between kinetic energy and potential energy effects. Various aspects of this model were investigated analytically by mean-field theory3,7, by renormalization group techniques3,5 and by projection methods8.
