AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the physical properties of quantum many-body systems through theory and computation
The Fukumoto Lab theoretically studies quantum many-body systems of electrons on a lattice.
Electrons have two degrees of freedom, charge and spin, and a system in which the charge degree of freedom is frozen is called a spin system.
Spin systems provide fundamental models of magnetic materials.
Electron systems that have both degrees of freedom call for deep understanding because of their relevance to high-temperature superconductivity and related phenomena. The lab uses these systems as its main subjects to elucidate and explore physical properties.
Key terms
- Quantum many-body system
- A system in which many electrons obeying quantum mechanics influence one another. Here, the lab deals with systems of electrons arranged on a lattice.
- Spin system
- A system in which the charge degree of freedom is frozen and only the spin degree of freedom of the electrons remains. It serves as a fundamental model of magnetic materials.
- Electron system
- A system in which both charge and spin degrees of freedom are present. Because of its relevance to high-temperature superconductivity and related phenomena, deep understanding of it is needed.

The lab theoretically studies quantum many-body systems of electrons on a lattice. It works to elucidate and explore physical properties in spin systems, in which the charge degree of freedom is frozen, and in electron systems that have both charge and spin degrees of freedom.
*Illustrative imageComputational Methods for Quantum Many-Body Systems
To discuss the physical properties of interacting quantum systems, the lab selects computational methods according to the situation and develops programs for its research. The methods include exact diagonalization (the Lanczos method), series expansion, quantum Monte Carlo simulation, and the density matrix renormalization group.
