Abstract

The Kondo insulator (KI) is studyed in the frameworrk of one dimensional models of Kondo and symmentic Anderson lattices at half filling. The consistent application of the mean field approach and the solution using the Bethe ansatz made it possible to come close to solving the problem of the ground state of KI. It is shown, that in ${Z}_2$-field electrons and local moments form singlets at each lattice site. This field leads to an on-site interaction, on which electrons are scattered. In the Kondo chain the Kondo insulator is similar to the Mott insulator in the Hubbard chain. The advantage of proposed approach is that it is possible to solve the problem for arbitrary exchange interaction constant. In the Anderson lattice, the indirect on-site interaction between band electrons is attractive, which makes it possible to propose a new mechanism for high $T_c$ superconductivity in real compounds.

Real-space determination of orbital states driving successive phase transitions in FeV2O4

Direct experimental access to orbital states in strongly correlated materials remains a major challenge, despite their central role in driving coupled structural and magnetic phase transitions. In systems where electronic correlations, electron-lattice coupling, and relativistic spin-orbit interactions compete on comparable energy scales, even first-principles calculations often yield multiple metastable solutions, hindering the unambiguous identification of the ground state. Here, we demonstrate that the orbital states of the spinel oxide FeV2O4, which possesses active orbital degrees of freedom on both Fe and V ions, are uniquely resolved by combining valence electron density (VED) analysis based on state-of-the-art synchrotron x-ray diffraction with spin-polarized density-functional-theory calculations. Our results reveal that temperature-dependent rearrangements of orbital occupations drive successive structural transitions that accompany collinear and noncoplanar ferrimagnetic orders, establishing a direct correspondence between orbital anisotropy and spin structure. More broadly, this work shows that experimentally determined VED provides a decisive real-space constraint on competing theoretical solutions, offering a powerful and broadly applicable framework for elucidating the microscopic mechanisms of complex phase transitions in strongly correlated electron systems.

Textures as a phase-transition probe for quantum spin chains

The idea of quantum texture has been recently proposed and used as a tool for quantifying coherences and for quantum gate identification. In this work we offer a study on its usage to quantum phase transitions, demonstrating the rugosity metric as a simple tool for effective phase-transition probing. We establish the link between rugosity in the computational basis and the hierarchy of spin correlators, and analyze rugosities defined in the global ground-state and in ground-states belonging to different magnetization sectors (to which we refer to as global vs symmetry-resolved rugosities) to study the phase diagram of the Heisenberg XXZ model. We find distinct rugosity signatures at both transition points. In particular, a sharp feature appears at $Δ=1$ already for small systems, revealing a pronounced sensitivity of the correlation hierarchy encoded by the texture to this point. Since the BKT transition coincides with the isotropic $SU(2)$ point of the XXZ model, this behavior may reflect a particular sensitivity of rugosity to the structure of the spin-correlation hierarchy at isotropy.

Exact selection of a toric-code vison crystal in a flux-conditioned Kitaev model

We construct an exactly solvable extension of the spin-$1/2$ Kitaev honeycomb model in which conserved $\mathbb{Z}_2$ fluxes determine not only the signs but also the connectivity of nearest-neighbor Majorana hopping. At a tuned loop point, hopping survives only across opposite-flux plaquettes, so every vertex has active degree zero or two and the matter Hamiltonian fragments in each flux sector into independent Majorana rings and isolated zero modes. Exact ring spectra and bond counting then bound the matter energy over all local flux configurations and all four Wilson-loop sectors, and split it exactly into a frustrated triangular-lattice Ising term, whose extensively degenerate ground states are the fully packed loop coverings, and a non-negative Majorana residual. On admissible commensurate tori, the residual selects precisely the three translation-related $2/3$-vison crystals, which saturate the bound, and an exact fermion-parity identity shows that for antiferromagnetic coupling their vacua also survive projection, making them rigorous ground states of the spin model. Within a single crystal, a depth-one local unitary then maps the ground space onto that of a sheared square-lattice toric code, giving fourfold topological degeneracy. The model thus realizes exact nonperturbative gauge-matter feedback: the flux fixes where the Majorana fermions may move, and their zero-point energy selects in return a topologically ordered vison crystal with spontaneously broken translation symmetry.
