Exact statistical transmutation of quantum mixtures on a ring

One-dimensional strongly repulsive quantum mixtures exhibit non-trivial exchange statistics arising from the interplay between orbital and spin degrees of freedom. Using an exact solution, we demonstrate that in the single-impurity limit the wavefunction of Fermi-Fermi and Bose-Bose mixtures on a ring threaded by an artificial gauge field display exact anyonic statistics under exchange of the impurity with the majority particles. The resulting fractional exchange phase is fixed by the angular momentum sector selected through the applied flux. We find that the impurity momentum distribution coincide exactly with the anyonic one, independently of the bosonic or fermionic nature of the mixture, with the large-momentum tails encoding a direct signature of the anyonic statistical angle. Finally, we devise a quench protocol for reversible dynamical anyonization. Our results provide a path for realizing and manipulating anyonized states with ultracold atoms.

Solitary waves of attracting SU(N) fermions

We study the formation, dynamics, and disorder robustness of bound states in attractively interacting SU(N) fermions on a one-dimensional ring lattice. Using exact diagonalization in fixed-momentum sectors and Bethe ansatz exact results as a guide, we resolve the many-body spectrum into bands related to the possible partitions of the particles into bound composites, and characterize their internal structure also through density-density and N-body correlations. A pinning quench protocol reveals a transition from dispersive spreading to dynamical localization as the attractive interaction increases relative to the single-particle hopping. We find that the bound state dynamics for one-particle per component occurs as a many-body quantum walk similar to that of a single particle with a re-normalized effective mass. Such a property, that is the quantum version of the shape-preserving motion of classical solitons, can provide the dynamical signature of the fermionic solitary waves. We probe the robustness of the fermionic bound-state dynamics under on-site disorder.
