We prove exponential decay of the off-diagonal correlation function in the two-dimensional homogeneous Bose gas when a(2)rho is small and the temperature T satisfies T4 pi rho ln vertical bar ln(a(2)rho)vertical bar. Here, a is the scattering length of the repulsive interaction potential and rho is the density. To the leading order in a(2)rho, this bound agrees with the expected critical temperature for superfluidity. In the three-dimensional Bose gas, exponential decay is proved when T-(TcTc(0))-T-(0)>5a rho(1/3), where T-c((0)) is the critical temperature of the ideal gas. While this condition is not expected to be sharp, it gives a rigorous upper bound on the critical temperature for Bose-Einstein condensation.

Free energy asymptotics of the quantum Heisenberg spin chain

Marcin Napiorkowski, Robert Seiringer

Summary: In this study, the ferromagnetic quantum Heisenberg model in one dimension was considered for spins greater than or equal to 1/2. Upper and lower bounds on the free energy were provided, showing that at low temperatures it approaches the free energy of an ideal Bose gas of magnons as predicted by the spin-wave approximation. The trial state used for the upper bound also yielded a similar estimate in two spatial dimensions, believed to be accurate at low temperatures.

Dimerization in Quantum Spin Chains with O(n) Symmetry

Jakob E. Bjornberg, Peter Muhlbacher, Bruno Nachtergaele, Daniel Ueltschi

Summary: The study focuses on quantum spins with S ≥ 1 and two-body interactions with O (2S + 1) symmetry in a one-dimensional system. A rigorous proof of dimerization within an open region of the phase diagram for sufficiently large S is presented, along with the proof of the existence of a gap for excitations.

The Strongly Coupled Polaron on the Torus: Quantum Corrections to the Pekar Asymptotics

Dario Feliciangeli, Robert Seiringer

Summary: The study investigates the Frohlich polaron model on a three-dimensional torus, providing a proof of the second-order quantum corrections to its ground-state energy in the strong-coupling limit. The presence of translational symmetry (and its breakdown in the Pekar approximation) makes the analysis significantly more challenging than in previous studies in confined cases.

The effective mass problem for the Landau-Pekar equations

Dario Feliciangeli, Simone Rademacher, Robert Seiringer

Summary: We provide a definition of effective mass for the classical polaron based on a novel variational principle that minimizes the energy functional over states with given velocity. The resulting formula for the effective mass agrees with the prediction by Landau-Pekar equations.

Polaron Models with Regular Interactions at Strong Coupling

Krzysztof Mysliwy, Robert Seiringer

Summary: In this study, we investigate the characteristics of a class of polaron-type Hamiltonians under the strong-coupling limit. The results show that the ground state energy of the system is bounded by the total momentum, in agreement with the semiclassical approximation. Additionally, we demonstrate that the effective mass diverges in the strong coupling limit for all models in all spatial dimensions. Moreover, for certain models with a phonon dispersion relation that grows at least linearly with momentum, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the effective mass quotient, which agrees with the semiclassical Landau-Pekar formula and provides a rigorous confirmation of its validity.

Two-particle bound states at interfaces and corners

Barbara Roos, Robert Seiringer

Summary: We study the interaction between two quantum particles forming a bound state in d-dimensional free space. The particles are constrained in k directions and subject to Neumann boundary conditions. We prove that the ground state energy decreases strictly as k increases, indicating that the particles tend to stick to the corner where all boundary planes intersect. Additionally, we show that the resulting Hamiltonian, after removing the free part of the kinetic energy, has only a finite number of eigenvalues below the essential spectrum.

Optimal parabolic upper bound for the energy-momentum relation of a strongly coupled polaron

David Mitrouskas, Krzysztof Mysliwy, Robert Seiringer

Summary: We study the energy-momentum relation of a large polaron described by the Frohlich Hamiltonian. By using a suitable family of trial states, we derive an optimal parabolic upper bound for the energy-momentum relation in the limit of strong coupling. This upper bound consists of a momentum independent term matching the predicted two-term expansion of the ground state energy for the strongly coupled polaron at rest, and a term quadratic in momentum with a coefficient given by the inverse of twice the classical effective mass introduced by Landau and Pekar.

Poisson-Dirichlet distributions and weakly first-order spin-nematic phase transitions

Nils Caci, Peter Muhlbacher, Daniel Ueltschi, Stefan Wessel

Summary: We quantitatively characterize weakly first-order thermal phase transitions in three-dimensional spin-one quantum magnets out of planar spin-nematic states using Poisson-Dirichlet distributions (PDs) and large-scale quantum Monte Carlo calculations. The thermal melting of the nematic state is identified to be a weakly first-order transition based on thermal properties and the distribution of the nematic order parameter, contrary to previous claims. Exact results for the order parameter distribution and Binder cumulants at the discontinuous melting transition are obtained through PD calculations. Our findings establish the thermal melting of planar spin-nematic states as a generic platform for quantitative approaches to weakly first-order phase transitions in quantum systems with a continuous SU(2) internal symmetry.

Asymptotic expansion of low-energy excitations for weakly interacting bosons

Lea Bossmann, Soeren Petrat, Robert Seiringer

Summary: In the mean-field scaling regime, we consider a system of N bosons with a class of interactions including the repulsive Coulomb potential. By deriving an asymptotic expansion of low-energy eigenstates and corresponding energies, we provide corrections to Bogoliubov theory to any order in 1/N.
