Lieb-Schultz-Mattis type theorems for Majorana models with discrete symmetries

نویسندگان

چکیده

We prove two Lieb-Schultz-Mattis type theorems that apply to any translationally invariant and local fermionic $d$-dimensional lattice Hamiltonian for which fermion-number conservation is broken down the of fermion parity. show when internal symmetry group ${G}_{f}^{\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}}$ realized locally (in a repeat unit cell lattice) by nontrivial projective representation, then ground state cannot be simultaneously nondegenerate, symmetric (with respect translations ${G}_{f}^{\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}}$), gapped. also hosts an odd number Majorana degrees freedom cardinality even, gapped, translation symmetric.

A Multi–Dimensional Lieb–Schultz–Mattis Theorem

For a large class of finite-range quantum spin models with half-integer spins, we prove that uniqueness of the ground state implies the existence of a low-lying excited state. For systems of linear size L, of arbitrary finite dimension, we obtain an upper bound on the excitation energy (i.e., the gap above the ground state) of the form (C logL)/L. This result can be regarded as a multi-dimensio...

Lieb-Schultz-Mattis in Higher Dimensions

A generalization of the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem to higher dimensional spin systems is shown. The physical motivation for the result is that such spin systems typically either have long-range order, in which case there are gapless modes, or have only short-range correlations, in which case there are topological excitations. The result uses a set of loop operators, analogous to those used in ...

Some remarks on the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem and its extension to higher dimensions

The extension of the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem to dimensions larger than one is discussed. It is explained why the variational wave-function built by the previous authors is of no help to prove the theorem in dimension larger than one. The short range R.V.B. picture of Sutherland, Rokhsar and Kivelson, Read and Chakraborty gives a strong support to the assertion that the theorem is indeed val...

Weighted Sobolev-type Embedding Theorems for Functions with Symmetries

It is well known that Sobolev embeddings can be refined in the presence of symmetries. Hebey and Vaugon (1997) studied this phenomena in the context of an arbitrary Riemannian manifold M and a compact group of isometries G. They showed that the limit Sobolev exponent increases if there are no points in M with discrete orbits under the action of G. In the paper, the situation where M contains po...
