Off-diagonal long-range order in solid 4He.
Measurements of the moment of inertia by Kim and Chan have found that solid (4)He acts like a supersolid at low temperatures. To understand the order in solid 4(He), we have used path integral Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) [equivalent to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC)]. We do not find ODLRO in a defect-free hcp crystal of (4)He at the melting d...
متن کاملRelation between Feynman cycles and off-diagonal long-range order.
The usual order parameter for Bose-Einstein condensation involves the off-diagonal correlation function of Penrose and Onsager, but an alternative is Feynman's notion of infinite cycles. We present a formula that relates both order parameters. We discuss its validity with the help of rigorous results and heuristic arguments. The conclusion is that infinite cycles do not always represent the Bos...
متن کاملCoexistence of diagonal and off-diagonal long-range order: A Monte Carlo study.
The zero temperature properties of interacting 2 dimensional lattice bosons are investigated. We present Monte Carlo data for soft-core bosons that demonstrate the existence of a phase in which crystalline long-range order and off-diagonal long-range order (superfluidity) coexist. We comment on the difference between hard and soft-core bosons and compare our data to mean-field results that pred...
متن کاملOff-diagonal long-range order, restricted gauge transformations, and Aharonov-Bohm effect in conductors.
The Hamiltonian describing a conductor surrounding an external magnetic field contains a nonvanishing vector potential in the volume accessible to the electrons and nuclei of which the conductor is made. That vector potential cannot be removed by a gauge transformation. Nevertheless, a macroscopic normal conductor can experience no Aharonov-Bohm effect. That is proved by assuming only that a no...
متن کاملUncertainty principle and off-diagonal long-range order in the fractional quantum Hall effect.
A natural generalization of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle inequality holding for non hermitian operators is presented and applied to the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE). This inequality was used in a previous paper to prove the absence of long range order in the ground state of several 1D systems with continuous group symmetries. In this letter we use it to rule out the occurrence ...
