Supersymmetric lattice models of constrained fermions are known to feature exotic phenomena such as superfrustration, with an extensive degeneracy of ground states, the nature of which is however generally unknown. Here we address this issue by considering a superfrustrated model, which we deform from the supersymetric point. By numerically studying its two-parameter phase diagram, we reveal a rich phenomenology. The vicinity of the supersymmetric point features period-4 and period-5 density waves which are connected by a floating phase (incommensurate Luttinger liquid) with smoothly varying density. The supersymmetric point emerges as a multicritical point between these three phases. Inside the period-4 phase we report a valence-bond solid type ground state that persists up to the supersymmetric point. Our numerical data for transitions out of density-wave phases are consistent with the Pokrovsky-Talapov universality class. Furthermore, our analysis unveiled a period-3 phase with a boundary determined by a competition between single and two-particle instabilities accompanied by a doubling of the wavevector of the density profiles along a line in the phase diagram.

Abstract In this work, we develop the theory of quasi-exact fault-tolerant quantum (QEQ) computation, which uses qubits encoded into quasi-exact quantum error-correction codes (``quasi codes''). By definition, a quasi code is a parametric approximate code that can become exact by tuning its parameters. The model of QEQ computation lies in between the two well-known ones: the usual noisy quantum computation without error correction and the usual fault-tolerant quantum computation, but closer to the later. Many notions of exact quantum codes need to be adjusted for the quasi setting. Here we develop quasi error-correction theory using quantum instrument, the notions of quasi universality, quasi code distances, and quasi thresholds, etc. We find a wide class of quasi codes which are called valence-bond-solid codes, and we use them as concrete examples to demonstrate QEQ computation.
