Diagrammatic Quantum Monte Carlo solution of the two-dimensional Cooperon-Fermion model
We investigate the two-dimensional cooperon-fermion model in the correlated
regime with a new continuous-time diagrammatic determinant quantum Monte Carlo
(DDQMC) algorithm. We estimate the transition temperature , examine the
effectively reduced band gap and cooperon mass, and find that delocalization of
the cooperons enhances the diamagnetism. When applied to diamagnetism of the
pseudogap phase in high- cuprates, we obtain results in a qualitative
agreement with recent torque magnetization measurements.Comment: 8 pages, 11 figure
Thermodynamics of the 3D Hubbard model on approach to the Neel transition
We study the thermodynamic properties of the 3D Hubbard model for
temperatures down to the Neel temperature using cluster dynamical mean-field
theory. In particular we calculate the energy, entropy, density, double
occupancy and nearest-neighbor spin correlations as a function of chemical
potential, temperature and repulsion strength. To make contact with cold-gas
experiments, we also compute properties of the system subject to an external
trap in the local density approximation. We find that an entropy per particle
at is sufficient to achieve a Neel state in the
center of the trap, substantially higher than the entropy required in a
homogeneous system. Precursors to antiferromagnetism can clearly be observed in
nearest-neighbor spin correlators.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure
On-site number statistics of ultracold lattice bosons
We study on-site occupation number fluctuations in a system of interacting
bosons in an optical lattice. The ground-state distribution is obtained
analytically in the limiting cases of strong and weak interaction, and by means
of exact Monte Carlo simulations in the strongly correlated regime. As the
interaction is increased, the distribution evolves from Poissonian in the
non-interacting gas to a sharply peaked distribution in the Mott-insulator (MI)
regime. In the special case of large occupation numbers, we demonstrate
analytically and check numerically that there exists a wide interval of
interaction strength, in which the on-site number fluctuations remain Gaussian
and are gradually squeezed until they are of order unity near the superfluid
(SF)-MI transition. Recently, the on-site number statistics were studied
experimentally in a wide range of lattice potential depths [Phys. Rev. Lett.
\textbf{96}, 090401 (2006)]. In our simulations, we are able to directly
reproduce experimental conditions using temperature as the only free parameter.
Pronounced temperature dependence suggests that measurements of on-site atom
number fluctuations can be employed as a reliable method of thermometry in both
SF and MI regimes.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Diagrammatic Monte Carlo for Correlated Fermions
We show that Monte Carlo sampling of the Feynman diagrammatic series (DiagMC)
can be used for tackling hard fermionic quantum many-body problems in the
thermodynamic limit by presenting accurate results for the repulsive Hubbard
model in the correlated Fermi liquid regime. Sampling Feynman's diagrammatic
series for the single-particle self-energy we can study moderate values of the
on-site repulsion () and temperatures down to . We
compare our results with high temperature series expansion and with single-site
and cluster dynamical mean-field theory.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, stylistic change
A target enrichment method for gathering phylogenetic information from hundreds of loci: An example from the Compositae.
UnlabelledPremise of the studyThe Compositae (Asteraceae) are a large and diverse family of plants, and the most comprehensive phylogeny to date is a meta-tree based on 10 chloroplast loci that has several major unresolved nodes. We describe the development of an approach that enables the rapid sequencing of large numbers of orthologous nuclear loci to facilitate efficient phylogenomic analyses. •Methods and resultsWe designed a set of sequence capture probes that target conserved orthologous sequences in the Compositae. We also developed a bioinformatic and phylogenetic workflow for processing and analyzing the resulting data. Application of our approach to 15 species from across the Compositae resulted in the production of phylogenetically informative sequence data from 763 loci and the successful reconstruction of known phylogenetic relationships across the family. •ConclusionsThese methods should be of great use to members of the broader Compositae community, and the general approach should also be of use to researchers studying other families
Congruence modularity implies cyclic terms for finite algebras
An n-ary operation f : A(n) -> A is called cyclic if it is idempotent and f(a(1), a(2), a(3), ... , a(n)) = f(a(2), a(3), ... , a(n), a(1)) for every a(1), ... , a(n) is an element of A. We prove that every finite algebra A in a congruence modular variety has a p-ary cyclic term operation for any prime p greater than vertical bar A vertical bar
Quantitative Determination of Temperature in the Approach to Magnetic Order of Ultracold Fermions in an Optical Lattice
We perform a quantitative simulation of the repulsive Fermi-Hubbard model using an ultracold gas trapped in an optical lattice. The entropy of the system is determined by comparing accurate measurements of the equilibrium double occupancy with theoretical calculations over a wide range of parameters. We demonstrate the applicability of both high-temperature series and dynamical mean-field theory to obtain quantitative agreement with the experimental data. The reliability of the entropy determination is confirmed by a comprehensive analysis of all systematic errors. In the center of the Mott insulating cloud we obtain an entropy per atom as low as 0.77k(B) which is about twice as large as the entropy at the Neel transition. The corresponding temperature depends on the atom number and for small fillings reaches values on the order of the tunneling energy
