Effective spin model for interband transport in a Wannier-Stark lattice system
arXiv:1010.0132 · doi:10.1140/epjd/e2010-10554-7
Abstract
We show that the interband dynamics in a tilted two-band Bose-Hubbard model can be reduced to an analytically accessible spin model in the case of resonant interband oscillations. This allows us to predict the revival time of these oscillations which decay and revive due to inter-particle interactions. The presented mapping onto the spin model and the so achieved reduction of complexity has interesting perspectives for future studies of many-body systems.
