A Dynamic Systems Approach to Fermions and Their Relation to Spins

Abstract

Dynamic properties of fermionic systems, like contollability, reachability, and simulability, are investigated in a general Lie-theoretical frame for quantum systems theory. Observing the parity superselection rule, we treat the fully controllable and quasifree cases, as well as various translation-invariant and particle-number conserving cases. We determine the respective dynamic system Lie algebras to express reachable sets of pure (and mixed) states by explicit orbit manifolds.
