Quantum many-body calculations using body-centered cubic lattices

It is often computationally advantageous to model space as a discrete set of points forming a lattice grid. This technique is particularly useful for computationally difficult problems such as quantum many-body systems. For reasons of simplicity and familiarity, nearly all quantum many-body calculations have been performed on simple cubic lattices. Since the removal of lattice artifacts is often an important concern, it would be useful to perform calculations using more than one lattice geometry. In this paper we show how to perform quantum many-body calculations using auxiliary-field Monte Carlo simulations on a three-dimensional body-centered cubic (BCC) lattice. As a benchmark test we compute the ground state energy of 33 spin-up and 33 spin-down neutrons in the unitary limit, which is an idealized limit where the interaction range is zero and scattering length is infinite. As a fraction of the free Fermi gas energy E FG , we find that the ground state energy is E 0 /E FG =0.369(2),0.371(2), using two different definitions of the finite-system energy ratio. This is in excellent agreement with recent results obtained on a cubic lattice [He et al., Phys. Rev. A 101, 063615 (2020)]. We find that the computational effort and performance on a BCC lattice is approximately the same as that for a cubic lattice with the same number of lattice points. We discuss how the lattice simulations with different geometries can be used to constrain the size of lattice artifacts in simulations of continuum quantum many-body systems.

Dislocation Patterning in Deforming Crystals: Theory, Computational Predictions and Validation (Final Technical Report)

This project was awarded for an initial period of three years, followed by a no-cost extension for one year and a funded one-year renewal. During the first four years, the project focused on investigating the role of dislocation reactions and dislocation correlation in dislocation patterning in FCC metals. During the fifth year, the scope of research was expanded to investigate the effects of composition inhomogeneity on the mesoscale plastic response of Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) alloys. In addition to its impact on metal hardening during deformation, dislocation patterning provides the microstructure information required to understand phenomena like fracture and recrystallization in metals. The Continuum Dislocation Dynamics (CDD) framework was the methodology used during the first four years, followed by the use of Discrete Dislocation Dynamics (DDD) during the fifth year. CDD is a density-based formalism of dislocation dynamics in which the plastic deformation of crystals is predicted together with the mesoscale dislocation patterns by tracking the space-time evolution of dislocations as driven by the applied stress, short-range and long-range interactions of dislocations, and cross slip. CDD is a crystal mechanics approach in which the plastic constitutive part is replaced with the equations of dislocation dynamics, which is driven by the internal stress via a mobility laws, while the evolution of the density gives the eigenstrain required to update the internal stress itself. The governing equations are thus those of crystal mechanics cast as an eigenstrain problem and those of dislocation transport and reactions. Our investigations during the first four years were driven by the hypothesis that that dislocation patterning is triggered by spatiotemporal dislocation density and internal stress fluctuations, and that such fluctuations influence the collective dislocation dynamic through their effects on the short-range reaction rates and the collective dislocation mobility. This hypothesis was tested by modeling the influence of the dislocation reactions and dislocation correlations on collective dislocation dynamics. The main research components during the first four years were: 1) Reformulation of the CDD framework to integrate the dislocation correlations and dislocation reactions. 2) Simulation of the dislocation correlations and quantifying their contribution to the long-range stress of complex dislocation systems. 3) Computational implementation of the updated CDD model for FCC single crystals and development of an efficient CDD code. 4) Investigation of dislocation patterning in FCC crystals based on the updated CDD model. Some key findings from these investigations were: 1) The patterning of dislocations is initiated by cross slip and internal stress fluctuations, and the refinement of the pattern results from junction formation. 2) Patterning is more prominent under high stress. 3) The correlation stress was found to be a significant part of the mean field stress in continuum representations of dislocation dynamics. During the last year of the project, we have established a method for performing dislocation dynamics in inhomogeneous alloys and demonstrated the impact of composition inhomogeneity on the characteristics of initial yielding and dislocation character in BCC alloys. We also tested this method using an irradiated ferritic alloy in which the composition and dislocation loops effects are both present. In doing so, we have considered two aspects of the role of inhomogeneity, the creation of internal coherency stress due to the dependence of the lattice parameter on the local composition, and the dependence of the dislocation mobility on the local composition. These two aspects resulted in an unexpected behavior of the dislocation system, and, in turn, the yielding behavior of BCC alloys. Key findings include: 1) The composition inhomogeneity in BCC alloys alters the well-known role of screw dislocations by forcing a level of waviness on the average dislocation character, thus destroying the screw character dominance in the yielding observed in pure or homogeneous BCC metals. 2) In the case of irradiated alloys, while composition inhomogeneity by itself and dislocation loops by themselves result in some hardening, the superposition of the two mechanisms does not result in the sum of the two contributions via any known rule. The latter result contradicts the classical works related hardening via multiple mechanisms, which state that various hardening mechanisms can be added linearly or using some Pythagorean additive rule. We were able to rationalize this unexpected result by a closer loop at the origin of the hardening mechanisms themselves, which both involved long-range elastic interactions with dislocations. We reached the conclusion that the hardening resulting from the total stress associated with these two mechanisms (current work) differs from the sum of the effects of the individual stress fields (classical literature). We have also found a major flaw in the classical theory of spinodal hardening. The latter theory never considered the impact of composition undulation on the solute hardening. We have built a new general theory accounting for the effect of solute friction together with the composition undulations on the dislocation configuration at Critical Resolved Shear Stress (CRSS), which is yielding a new definition of the spinodal hardening and new different results. This work is the first to recognize the lack of the role of solute in spinodal hardening theory of alloys.

Phase diagram of the anisotropic triangular lattice Hubbard model

In a recent study [Phys. Rev. X 10, 021042 (2020)], we showed using large-scale density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations on infinite cylinders that the triangular lattice Hubbard model has a chiral spin liquid phase. In this work, we introduce hopping anisotropy in the model, making one of the three distinct bonds on the lattice stronger or weaker compared with the other two. We implement the anisotropy in two inequivalent ways, one which respects the mirror symmetry of the cylinder and one which breaks this symmetry. In the full range of anisotropy, from the square lattice to weakly coupled one-dimensional chains, we find a variety of phases. Near the isotropic limit we find the three phases identified in our previous work: metal, chiral spin liquid, and 120$^\circ$ spiral order; we note that a recent paper suggests the apparently metallic phase may actually be a Luther-Emery liquid, which would also be in agreement with our results. Furthermore, when one bond is weakened by a relatively small amount, the ground state quickly becomes the square lattice N\'{e}el order. When one bond is strengthened, the story is much less clear, with the phases that we find depending on the orientation of the anisotropy and on the cylinder circumference. While our work is to our knowledge the first DMRG study of the anisotropic triangular lattice Hubbard model, the overall phase diagram we find is broadly consistent with that found previously using other methods, such as variational Monte Carlo and dynamical mean field theory.

Density functional thermodynamic description of spin, phonon and displacement degrees of freedom in antiferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic phase transition in YNiO 3

This work herein demonstrates a direct density functional description of the finite-temperature thermodynamic properties of solids exhibiting phase transitions through positional and spin symmetry breaking degrees of freedom. A classic example addressed here is the rare-earth (R) nickelates RNiO 3 where the ground state is characterized by crystallographic and magnetic (e.g., antiferromagnetic) long-range order (LRO), whereas the higher temperature paramagnetic phase manifests a range of local spin and positional symmetry breaking motifs with short-range order (SRO). Unlike time-dependent simulations of spin and positional degrees of freedom, in the present work, phases are described via a superposition of static configurations constructed by populating a periodic base lattice supercell allowing for the formation of energy lowing distribution of positional and spin local motifs. The thermal populations of the configurations in such a superposition phase are obtained from the energy-minimized Density Functional Theory (DFT)-calculated partition functions at different temperatures. This approach offers flexible inclusion of different physical contributions to the free energy, such as elastic, electronic and phonon free energies, all obtained from the same underlying DFT total energy calculations of periodic structures. The thermodynamic and magnetic properties of both LRO and SRO crystallographic and spin phases, including antiferromagnetic (AFM) to paramagnetic (PM) Néel phase transition in YNiO3 are studied. Including spin and phonon contributions, we find a DFT-calculated Néel temperature to be 144 K in satisfactory agreement with the experimental value of 145 K; whereas omitting the phonon contribution, one obtains a Néel temperature of 81 K. We present phonon contributions to the DFT-calculated temperature-dependent SRO, heat capacities, and the polymorphous distribution of nonzero local magnetic moments in the PM phase. This approach thus extends to finite temperatures the symmetry-broken DFT description of both the AFM and PM phases, demonstrating that a thermodynamic superposition approach based on symmetry broken configurations evaluated by a mean-field like DFT is sufficient to obtain a consistent description of the thermal physics of the AFM, PM phases and their interconversion in 3d oxides illustrated by YNiO 3 .

Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics in Hyperbolic Space: From Photon Bound States to Frustrated Spin Models

Circuit quantum electrodynamics is one of the most promising platforms for efficient quantum simulation and computation. In recent groundbreaking experiments, the immense flexibility of superconducting microwave resonators was utilized to realize hyperbolic lattices that emulate quantum physics in negatively curved space. Here we investigate experimentally feasible settings in which a few superconducting qubits are coupled to a bath of photons evolving on the hyperbolic lattice. We compare our numerical results for finite lattices with analytical results for continuous hyperbolic space on the Poincaré disk. We find good agreement between the two descriptions in the long-wavelength regime. We show that photon-qubit bound states have a curvature-limited size. We propose to use a qubit as a local probe of the hyperbolic bath, for example, by measuring the relaxation dynamics of the qubit. We find that, although the boundary effects strongly impact the photonic density of states, the spectral density is well described by the continuum theory. We show that interactions between qubits are mediated by photons propagating along geodesics. We demonstrate that the photonic bath can give rise to geometrically frustrated hyperbolic quantum spin models with finite-range or exponentially decaying interaction.

Real-time dynamics of the Schwinger model as an open quantum system with Neural Density Operators

Ab-initio simulations of multiple heavy quarks propagating in a Quark-Gluon Plasma are computationally difficult to perform due to the large dimension of the space of density matrices. This work develops machine learning algorithms to overcome this difficulty by approximating exact quantum states with neural network parametrisations, specifically Neural Density Operators. As a proof of principle demonstration in a QCD-like theory, the approach is applied to solve the Lindblad master equation in the 1 + 1d lattice Schwinger Model as an open quantum system. Neural Density Operators enable the study of in-medium dynamics on large lattice volumes, where multiple-string interactions and their effects on string-breaking and recombination phenomena can be studied. Thermal properties of the system at equilibrium can also be probed with these methods by variationally constructing the steady state of the Lindblad master equation. Scaling of this approach with system size is studied, and numerical demonstrations on up to 32 spatial lattice sites and with up to 3 interacting strings are performed.

Dimerization and spin decoupling in a two-leg Heisenberg ladder with frustrated trimer rungs

We study the antiferromagnetic spin-half Heisenberg ladder in the presence of an additional frustrating rung spin which is motivated and relevant also for the description of real two-dimensional materials such as the two-dimensional trimer magnet Ba 4 Ir 3 O 10 . We study the zero-temperature phase diagram, where we combine numerical and analytical methods into an overall consistent description. All numerical simulations are also accompanied by studies of the dynamical spin structure factor obtained via the density matrix renormalization group. Overall, we find in the regime of strong rung coupling a gapped dimerized phase related to competing symmetry sectors in Hilbert space that ultimately results in frustration-driven spin-Peierls transition. In the weak rung-coupling regime, the system is uniform, yet shows a gapped spinon continuum together with a sharp coherent low-energy branch which renders the system critical overall. In either case, the additional rung spin quickly get sidelined and nearly decouple in the regime when their bare coupling to the ladder is weakened

Moiré Kanamori-Hubbard model for transition metal dichalcogenide homobilayers

Ab initio and continuum model studies predicted that the Γ valley transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) homobilayers could simulate the conventional multiorbital Hubbard model on the moiré honeycomb lattice. Here, in this work, we perform the Wannierization starting from the continuum model and show that a more general moiré Kanamori-Hubbard model emerges, beyond the extensively studied standard multiorbital Hubbard model, which can be used to investigate the many-body physics in the Γ valley TMD homobilayers. Using the unrestricted Hartree-Fock and Lanczos techniques, we study these half-filled multiorbital moiré bands. By constructing the phase diagrams we predict the presence of an antiferromagnetic state and in addition we found unexpected and dominant states, such as a S = 1 ferromagnetic insulator and a charge density wave state. Our theoretical predictions made using this model can be tested in future experiments on the Γ valley TMD homobilayers.

Thermalization from quantum entanglement: Jet simulations in the massive Schwinger model

We investigate the emergence of thermalization in a quantum-field-theoretic model mimicking the production of jets in QCD: the massive lattice Schwinger model coupled to external sources. Specifically, we compute the expectation values of local operators as functions of time and compare them to their thermal counterparts, quantify the overlap between the evolving density matrix and the thermal one, and compare the dynamics of the energy-momentum tensor to predictions from relativistic hydrodynamics. Through these studies, we find that the system approaches thermalization at late times and elucidate the mechanisms by which quantum entanglement drives thermalization in closed field-theoretic systems. Our results show how thermodynamic behavior emerges in real time from unitary quantum dynamics.

Breaking Rayleigh’s Law with Spatially Correlated Disorder to Control Phonon Transport

Controlling thermal transport in insulators and semiconductors is crucial for many technological fields such as thermoelectrics and thermal insulation, for which a low thermal conductivity (κ) is desirable. A major obstacle for realizing low κ materials is Rayleigh’s law, which implies that acoustic phonons, which carry most of the heat, are insensitive to scattering by point defects at low energy. We demonstrate, with large scale simulations on tens of millions of atoms, that isotropic long-range spatial correlations in the defect distribution can dramatically reduce phonon lifetimes of important low-frequency heat-carrying modes, leading to a large reduction of κ—potentially an order of magnitude at room temperature. We propose a general and quantitative framework for controlling thermal transport in complex functional materials through structural spatial correlations, and we establish the optimal functional form of spatial correlations that minimize κ. Finally, we end by briefly discussing experimental realizations of various correlated structures.

Quantum real-time evolution of entanglement and hadronization in jet production: Lessons from the massive Schwinger model

The possible link between entanglement and thermalization, and the dynamics of hadronization are addressed by studying the real-time response of the massive Schwinger model coupled to external sources. This setup mimics the production and fragmentation of quark jets, as the Schwinger model and quantum chromodynamics (QCD) share the properties of confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. By using simulations of quantum dynamics on classical hardware, we study the entanglement between the produced jets, and observe the growth of the corresponding entanglement entropy in time. This growth arises from the increased number of contributing eigenstates of the reduced density matrix with sufficiently large and close eigenvalues. We also investigate the physical nature of these eigenstates, and find that at early times they correspond to fermionic Fock states. We then observe the transition from these fermionic Fock states to mesonlike bound states as a function of time. In other words, we observe how hadronization develops in real time. At late times, the local observables at midrapidity (such as the fermion density and the electric field) approach approximately constant values, suggesting the onset of equilibrium and approach to thermalization.

Quantum Computation of Dynamical Quantum Phase Transitions and Entanglement Tomography in a Lattice Gauge Theory

Strongly coupled gauge theories far from equilibrium may exhibit unique features that could illuminate the physics of the early universe and of hadron and ion colliders. Studying real-time phenomena has proven challenging with classical-simulation methods but is a natural application of quantum simulation. To demonstrate this prospect, we quantum compute nonequal-time correlation functions and perform entanglement tomography of nonequilibrium states of a simple lattice gauge theory, the Schwinger model, using a trapped-ion quantum computer by IonQ Inc. As an ideal target for near-term devices, a recently predicted dynamical quantum phase transition in this model is studied by preparing, quenching, and tracking the subsequent nonequilibrium dynamics in three ways: (i) overlap echos signaling dynamical transitions, (ii) nonequal-time correlation functions with an underlying topological nature, and (iii) the entanglement structure of nonequilibrium states, including entanglement Hamiltonians. These results constitute the first observation of a dynamical quantum phase transition in a lattice gauge theory on a quantum computer and are a first step toward investigating topological phenomena in nuclear and high-energy physics using quantum technologies.

Antiferromagnetic transitions of Dirac fermions in three dimensions

We use determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations to study the role of electron-electron interactions on three-dimensional (3D) Dirac fermions based on the π-flux model on a cubic lattice. We show that the Hubbard interaction drives the 3D Dirac semimetal to an antiferromagnetic (AF) insulator only above a finite critical interaction strength and the long-range AF order persists up to a finite temperature. We evaluate the critical interaction strength and temperatures using finite-size scaling of the spin structure factor. The critical behaviors are consistent with the (3+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu universality class for the quantum critical point and 3D Heisenberg universality class for the thermal phase transitions. We further investigate correlation effects in the birefringent Dirac fermion system. It is found that the critical interaction strength U c is decreased by reducing the velocity of the Dirac cone, quantifying the effect of velocity on the critical interaction strength in 3D Dirac fermion systems. Our findings unambiguously uncover correlation effects in 3D Dirac fermions and may be observed using ultracold atoms in an optical lattice.

Time-domain theory of transient heat conduction in the local limit

Ultrafast and nanoscale heat conduction demands a unified theoretical framework that rigorously bridges macroscopic transport equations with microscopic material properties derived from statistical physics. Existing empirical generalizations of Fourier's law often lack a solid microscopic foundation, failing to connect observed non-Fourier behavior with underlying atomic-scale mechanisms. In this work, we present a time-domain theory of transient heat conduction rooted in Zwanzig's statistical theory of irreversible processes. Central to this framework is the time-domain transport function $\overleftrightarrow{𝑍}$⁡(𝑡) defined through equilibrium time-correlation functions of heat fluxes. This function generalizes the conventional concept of steady-state thermal conductivity, governing the transition of conduction dynamics from onset second sound type wave propagation at finite speeds to diffusion-dominated behavior across broad temporal and spatial scales. Unlike phonon hydrodynamic models that rely on mesoscopic constructs such as phonon drift velocity, our approach provides a quantitative and microscopic description of intrinsic memory effects in transient heat fluxes and applies universally to bulk materials at any temperature or length scale. By integrating atomistic-scale first-principles calculations with continuum-level macroscopic equations, this framework offers a robust foundation for numerical simulations of transient temperature fields. Furthermore, it facilitates the interpretation and design of transient thermal grating experiments using nanometer-scale heat sources and ultrafast laser systems in the extreme ultraviolet and x-ray wavelength ranges, advancing our understanding of heat dissipation dynamics.

The electroweak phase transition: a collider target

Determining the thermal history of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) is an important challenge for particle physics and cosmology. Lattice simulations indicate that EWSB in the Standard Model (SM) occurs through a crossover transition, while the presence of new physics beyond the SM could alter this thermal history. The occurrence of a first order EWSB transition would be particularly interesting, providing the needed pre-conditions for generation of the cosmic matter-antimatter asymmetry and sources for potentially observable gravitational radiation. I provide simple, generic arguments that if such an alternate thermal history exists, the new particles involved cannot be too heavy with respect to the SM electroweak temperature, nor can they interact too feebly with the SM Higgs boson. These arguments do not rely on the decoupling limit. I derive corresponding quantitative expectations for masses and interaction strengths which imply that their effects could in principle be observed (or ruled out) by prospective next generation high energy colliders. The simple, generic arguments provide a quantitative, parametric understanding of results obtained in a wide range of explicit model studies; relate them explicitly to the electroweak temperature; and delineate broad contours of collider phenomenology pertaining to a non-standard history of EWSB.

Entanglement Structure of Non-Gaussian States and How to Measure It

Rapidly growing capabilities of quantum simulators to probe quantum many-body phenomena require new methods to characterize increasingly complex states. Here, we present a protocol that constrains quantum states using experimentally measured correlation functions. This method enables measurement of a quantum state’s entanglement structure, opening a new route to study entanglement-related phenomena. Our approach extends Gaussian state parameterizations by systematically incorporating higher-order correlations. We show the protocol’s usefulness in conjunction with current and forthcoming experimental capabilities, focusing on weakly interacting fermions as a proof of concept. Here, the lowest nontrivial expansion quantitatively predicts early time thermalization dynamics, including signaling the onset of quantum chaos indicated by the entanglement Hamiltonian.

Probing the Local Site Disorder and Distortion in Pyrochlore High-Entropy Oxides

High-entropy oxides (HEOs) have attracted great interest in diverse fields because of their inherent opportunities to tailor and combine materials functionalities. The control of local order/disorder in the class is by extension a grand challenge toward realizing their vast potential. In this paper, we report the first examples of pyrochlore HEOs with five M-site cations, for Nd 2 M 2 O 7 , in which the local structure has been investigated by neutron diffraction and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. The average structure of the pyrochlores is found to be orthorhombic Imma, in agreement with radius-ratio rules governing the structural archetype. The computed PDFs from density functional theory relaxed special quasirandom structure models are compared with real space PDFs in this work to evaluate M-site order/disorder. Reverse Monte Carlo combined with ab initio molecular dynamics and Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations demonstrates that Nd 2 (Ta 0.2 Sc 0.2 Sn 0.2 Hf 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 O 7 is synthesized with its M-site local to nanoscale order highly randomized/disordered, while Nd 2 (Ti 0.2 Nb 0.2 Sn 0.2 Hf 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 O 7+x exhibits a strong distortion of the TiO 6 octahedron and small degree of Ti chemical short-range order (SRO) on the subnanometer scale. Calculations suggest that this may be intrinsic, energetically favored SRO rather than due to sample processing. These results offer an important demonstration that the engineered variation of participating ions in HEOs, even among those with very similar radii, provides richly diverse opportunities to control local order/disorder motifs—and therefore materials properties for future designs. This work also hints at the exquisite level of detail that may be needed in computational and experimental data analysis to guide structure–property tuning in the emerging HEO materials class.
