Realand imaginary -time quantum state evolutions are crucial in physics and chemistry for exploring quantum dynamics, preparing ground states, and computing thermodynamic observables. On near -term devices, variational quantum time evolution is a promising ...
Ulam asked whether all Lie groups can be represented faithfully on a countable set. We establish a reduction of Ulam's problem to the case of simple Lie groups. In particular, we solve the problem for all solvable Lie groups and more generally Lie groups w ...
We generalize the fixed-point property for discrete groups acting on convex cones given by Monod in [23] to topological groups. At first, we focus on describing this fixed-point property from a functional point of view, and then we look at the class of gro ...
We show that the first -Betti number of the duals of the free unitary quantum groups is one, and that all -Betti numbers vanish for the duals of the quantum automorphism groups of full matrix algebras. ...
In this thesis we study various one-dimensional quantum spin systems with SU(2) and SU(N) symmetry. We investigate the short-distance behavior of the SU(2) Heisenberg model in the limit of large spin and show that there exists an extended regime where pert ...
This thesis explores various approaches of studying the long-range colour order of antiferromagnetic SU(N) Heisenberg models with the linear flavour-wave theory (LFWT). The LFWT is an extension of the well-known SU(2) spin-wave theory to SU(N), and this se ...
Motivated by recent experimental progress in the context of ultra-cold multi-colour fermionic atoms in optical lattices, this thesis investigates the properties of the antiferromagnetic SU(N) Heisenberg models with fully antisymmetric irreducible represent ...
The ground state and zero-temperature magnetization process of the spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on two-dimensional triangles-in-triangles lattices are exactly calculated using eigenstates of the smallest commuting spin clusters. Our ground-state analysi ...
We report on a first-principles investigation of the electronic structure and of the magnetic properties of the quasi-two-dimensional Mott insulator SrCu2(BO3)(2). Based on the hopping integrals and Coulomb interactions calculated with local-density approx ...
Given a finite p-group P, the main result gives necessary and sufficient conditions for obtaining a torsion endo-permutation module for P by gluing a compatible family of torsion endo-permutation modules for all sections N(Q)/Q, where Q runs among non-triv ...
