Abstract:
We consider m spinless Bosons distributed over I degenerate single-particle states and interacting through a k-body random interaction with Gaussian probability distribution (the Bosonic embedded k-body ensembles). We address the cases of orthogonal and unitary symmetry in the limit of infinite matrix dimension, attained either as l --> infinity, or as m --> infinity. We derive an eigenvalue expansion for the second moment of the many-body matrix elements of these ensembles. Using properties of this expansion, the supersymmetry technique, and the binary correlation method, we show that in the limit l --> infinity the ensembles have nearly the same spectral properties as the corresponding Fermionic embedded ensembles. Novel features specific for Bosons arise in the dense limit defined as m --> infinity with both k and l fixed. Here we show that the ensemble is not ergodic and that the spectral fluctuations are not of Wigner-Dyson type. We present numerical results for the dense limit using both ensemble unfolding and spectral unfolding. These differ strongly, demonstrating the lack of ergodicity of the ensemble. Spectral unfolding shows a strong tendency toward picket-fence-type spectra. Certain eigenfunctions of individual realizations of the ensemble display Fock-space localization.
