Dynamics of entanglement entropy of interacting fermions in a 1D driven harmonic trap

J. R. McKenney, W. J. Porter, J. E. Drut

Following up on a recent analysis of two cold atoms in a time-dependent harmonic trap in one dimension, we explore the entanglement entropy of two and three fermions in the same si…

Surmounting the sign problem in non-relativistic calculations: a case study with mass-imbalanced fermions

Lukas Rammelmüller, William J. Porter, Joaquín E. Drut +1

The calculation of the ground state and thermodynamics of mass-imbalanced Fermi systems is a challenging many-body problem. Even in one spatial dimension, analytic solutions are li…
