Tuning between singlet, triplet, and mixed pairing states in an extended Hubbard chain
arXiv:1311.2033 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.89.104519
Abstract
We study spin-half fermions in a one-dimensional extended Hubbard chain at low filling. We identify three triplet and one singlet pairing channels in the system, which are independently tunable as a function of nearest-neighbor charge and spin interactions. In a large-size system with translational invariance, we derive gap equations for the corresponding pairing gaps and obtain a Bogoliubov-de Gennes Hamiltonian with its non-trivial topology determined by the interplay of these gaps. In an open-end system with a fixed number of particles, we compute the exact many-body ground state and identify the dominant pairing revealed by the pair density matrix. Both cases show competition between the four pairing states, resulting in broad regions for each of them and relatively narrow regions for mixed-pairing states in the parameter space. Our results enable the possibility of tuning a nanowire between singlet and triplet pairing states without breaking time-reversal or SU(2) symmetry, accompanied by a change in the system's topology.
