Abstract: The Jordan-Wigner transformation is frequently utilised to rewrite quantum spin chains in terms of fermionic operators. When the resulting Hamiltonian is bilinear in these fermions, i.e. the fermions are free, the exact spectrum follows from the eigenvalues of a matrix whose size grows only linearly with the volume of the system. However, several Hamiltonians that do not admit a Jordan-Wigner transformation to fermion bilinears still have the same type of free-fermion spectra. The spectra of such ``free fermions in disguise" models can be found exactly by an intricate but explicit construction of the raising and lowering operators. We generalise the methods further to find a family of such spin chains. We compute the exact spectrum, and generalise an elegant graph-theory construction. We also explain how this family admits an N=2 lattice supersymmetry.

Efficient conversion from fermionic Gaussian states to matrix product states [48.225436651971805]
We propose a highly efficient algorithm that converts fermionic Gaussian states to matrix product states. It can be formulated for finite-size systems without translation invariance, but becomes particularly appealing when applied to infinite systems. The potential of our method is demonstrated by numerical calculations in two chiral spin liquids.

We study the entanglement Hamiltonian for the ground state of one-dimensional free fermions in the presence of an inhomogeneous chemical potential. It is shown that, for both models, conformal field theory predicts a Bisognano-Wichmann form for the entangement Hamiltonian of a half-infinite system.

Quantum circuits with free fermions in disguise [0.0]
Multiple families of spin chain models have a free fermionic spectrum, even though they are not solvable by a Jordan-Wigner transformation. We construct circuits using local unitary gates built from the terms in the local Hamiltonians of the respective models. We find that many standard brickwork circuits are not free fermionic, but we identify certain symmetric constructions which are.

Measurement phase transitions in the no-click limit as quantum phase transitions of a non-hermitean vacuum [77.34726150561087]
We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

Quantum circuits for solving local fermion-to-qubit mappings [0.0]
Local Hamiltonians of fermionic systems on a lattice can be mapped onto local qubit Hamiltonians. Maintaining locality comes at the expense of increasing the Hilbert space with auxiliary degrees of freedom. We demonstrate how maintaining locality allows one to carry out a Trotterized time-evolution with constant circuit depth per time step.
