• Abstract summary: We present Monte Carlo calculations of a one-dimensional Bose system with realistic interparticle interactions in a periodic external potential. Our main aim is to test the predictions of the Luttinger liquid (LL) theory, in particular with respect to the super-Mott insulator transition at both zero and finite temperatures.

• Abstract: We present diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) and path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) calculations of a one-dimensional Bose system with realistic interparticle interactions in a periodic external potential. Our main aim is to test the predictions of the Luttinger liquid (LL) theory, in particular with respect to the superfluid-Mott insulator transition at both zero and finite temperatures, in the predicted robust and fragile superfluid regimes. For that purpose, we present our results of the superfluid fraction $\rho_s/\rho_0$, the one-body density matrix, the two-body correlation functions, and the static structure factor. The DMC and PIMC results in the limit of very low temperature for $\rho_s/\rho_0$ agree, but the LL model for scaling $\rho_s/\rho_0$ does not fit the data well. The critical depth of the periodic potential is close to the values obtained for ultracold gases with different models of interaction, but with the same value of the bare LL parameter, demonstrating the universality of LL description. Algebraic decay of correlation functions is observed in the superfluid regime and exponential decay in the Mott-insulator one, as well as in all regimes at finite temperature for distances larger than a characteristic length.

  We compute the partition function of the string-net model and investigate several thermodynamical quantities. In the thermodynamic limit, we show that the partition function is dominated by the contribution of special particles, dubbed pure fluxons. We also analyze the behavior of Wegner-Wilson loops associated to excitations and show that they obey an area law.

  We develop a new method of data analysis to identify microscopic processes leading to quantum phase transitions (QPTs) We show that for many systems, the scaled data near QPTs can be approximated by the generic exponential dependence introduced in the scaling theory of localization. We have also conjectured that for interacting systems, the temperature cuts the renormalization group flow at the length travelled by a system-specific elementary excitation.

A specific relationship between the collapse parameter $(lambda)$ and the collapse length scale ($r_C$) plays the role of the coexistence curve in usual thermodynamic phase diagrams.

Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.

  A simple model for the chemical potential at vanishing temperature played a crucial role in Perdew, Parr, Levy, and Balduz's 1982 paper. We find exact agreement in the crucial zero-temperature limit, and show the model remains accurate for a significant range of temperatures. We extend the model to approximate free energies accounting for the derivative discontinuity, a feature missing in standard semi-local approximations.
