Efficient determination of eigenenergies and eigenstates of $N$ ($N=3$--$4$) identical 1D bosons and fermions under external harmonic confinement

Abstract

Few-atom systems play an important role in understanding the transition from few- to many-body quantum behaviors. This work introduces a new approach for determining the energy spectra and eigenstates of small harmonically trapped single-component Bose and Fermi gases with additive two-body zero-range interactions in one spatial dimension. The interactions for bosons are the usual $\delta$-function interactions while those for fermions are $\delta$-function interactions that contain derivative operators. Details of the derivation and benchmarks of the numerical scheme are presented. Extensions to other systems are discussed.
