The 35th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory (Lattice 2017)
Participant, 18/06/2017 - 24/06/2017 Venue: Palacio de Congresos de Granada, Granada, Spain Poster: Charge-density-wave phases of one-dimensional model with long-range repulsive interactions M. Szyniszewski Abstract: The one-dimensional extended t-V model on a lattice describes fermions with repulsive interactions of finite range and exhibits a quantum phase transition between a Luttinger liquid conducting phase and a Mott insulating phase. Its properties make it useful in the description of candidate materials for Mott transistor devices. It is known that by tailoring the potential energy of the insulating system, one can force a phase transition into a different insulating phase [1, 2]. We show how to construct all possible charge-density-wave phases of the system at low critical densities in the atomic limit. Higher critical densities are investigated by a brute-force analysis of the possible finite unit cells of the Fock states. We present example phase diagrams of the system. We construct a matrix product operator representation of the Hamiltonian of the t-V model. Using the matrix product states (MPS) approach we go beyond the atomic limit, where the phase diagrams are much richer. MPS method is especially problematic near the transition between two different charge-density-wave phases and we show how the bond dimension must be increased in order to converge the results. Our results indicate that the number of possible insulating phases grows with both the maximum interaction range and the fermion density and may cause the loss of insulating properties of the material at finite temperatures.

Participant, 24/07/2016 - 30/07/2016 Venue: University of Southampton, Southampton, UK Poster: Fermions with long-range interactions using a matrix-product-states approach M. Szyniszewski Abstract: The long-range t-V model of fermions on a lattice is known to exhibit a transition between a Luttinger liquid phase and a Mott insulator phase [1]. At insulating densities, one can tailor the potential energy of the model in such a way that one forces a quantum phase transition to either another insulating charge-density-wave phase, a bond-order phase or a Luttinger liquid [2]. We show how to construct a matrix product operator representation of the Hamiltonian of the t-V model and we present phase diagrams calculated using the matrix-product-states approach [3]. We compare these phase diagrams with results obtained in the atomic limit.

Speaker, 06/09/2015 - 11/09/2015 Venue: Kursaal Event Centre, San Sebastian / Donostia, Spain Talk: Diffusion Monte Carlo study of charge carrier complexes in two-dimensional semiconductors M. Szyniszewski, E. Mostaani, N. Drummond, V. Fal'ko Abstract: We use a novel description of the interaction between charges in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors to investigate the binding properties of two-, three- and four-particle complexes of charge carriers (excitons, trions and biexcitons). We report binding energies and pair distribution functions calculated using diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods, which are exact for these systems. Our results will enable the interpretation of experimental photoabsorption and photoluminescence measurements on 2D transition-metal dichalcogenide materials. We show that our data are consistent with previous binding-energy data for the limits in which the interactions between charges reduce to logarithmic and Coulomb (1/r) forms. We find that the logarithmic interaction that has previously been used to study excitons and trions in 2D semiconductors provides an inadequate description of the behaviour of systems such as molybdenum disulphide, and we provide accurate binding-energy data for excitons, trions and biexcitons in these materials.

Participant, 13/07/2015 - 18/07/2015 Venue: Kobe International Conference Center, Kobe, Japan Poster: Strong coupling expansion of the t-V model (further results) M. Szyniszewski, E. Burovski Abstract: We employ a strong coupling expansion - similar to the one used in the lattice field theory studies [1] - to solve the one-dimensional extended t-V model of fermions on a lattice [2]. This model is solved for a range of filling factors, including both commensurate - where a charge density wave is present - and incommensurate densities. The first set consists not only of a trivial case of half filling. The method allows us to trace the transition from a Luttinger liquid phase to a Mott insulating phase and calculate the critical parameter K. This simple yet powerful method is not based on Bethe ansatz and it works for both integrable and non-integrable systems. Furthermore, we investigate how tailoring the interaction can introduce other ordered phases of the system [3].

Burovski Abstract: We use a strong coupling expansion [1] to solve the one-dimensional extended t‑V model of fermions [2,3]. The model is solved for a range of densities, including both commensurate – where a charge density wave is present – and incommensurate densities. The first set consists not only of a trivial case of half filling. The method allows us to trace the transition from a Luttinger liquid phase to a Mott insulating phase.

The 32nd International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory (Lattice 2014)
Speaker, 22/06/2014 - 28/06/2014 Venue: Columbia University, New York, US Talk: Lattice Hamiltonian approach to the Schwinger model K. Cichy, A. Kujawa-Cichy, M. Szyniszewski Abstract: We employ exact diagonalization with strong coupling expansion to the massless and massive Schwinger model. For the massless case, this allows us for a high accuracy continuum limit estimation of the ground state energy and scalar and vector mass gaps with precisions of the order of one part per billion or better. Furthermore, we investigate the chiral condensate and compare our calculations to previous results available in the literature. Oscillations of the chiral condensate which are present while increasing the expansion order are also studied and are shown to be directly linked to the presence of flux loops in the system.
