Question: I want to have a matrix form for hopping between nearest points on a square lattice.

My Attempt: To start and explain the idea I do that on a 1D lattice like shown in the figure

The matrixForm for this case comes from this.

I create a 1D chain using the following code (I use a fucntion SquareGrid defined below)

N = 3; % Number of points

pts = squareGrid([0 0 (N-1) 0], [1 1]);

scatter(pts(:,1),pts(:,2),50,'o', 'filled')

Now I want a matrixform such that I can see hopping between the sites which are neigbors. First and last sites are linked. For this i do the following.

N =5; % Number of sites 
t = 1; % value for hopping 
t_vec = repmat(t, [1,N-1]); % making a vector of size N-1 with t 
H_tb =  diag(t_vec, 1) +  diag(t_vec, -1);
H_tb(1,5) = t; H_tb(5,1) = t; % linking first and last points
H_tb
H_tb = 5×5
     0     1     0     0     1
     1     0     1     0     0
     0     1     0     1     0
     0     0     1     0     1
     1     0     0     1     0

Now I have the matricform as shown above which does what I wanted for a 1D chain. Now i want to do the same for 2D, square lattice. This is where I am stuck. How do make a matrixform such as above which takes into account all the hoppings between nearest sites? Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.

pts = squareGrid([0 0 1 1], [1 1]);

scatter(pts(:,1),pts(:,2),50,'o', 'filled')

For this I use a function SquareGrid as below.

function varargout = squareGrid(bounds, dim)
%bounds(xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax)
% dim(xsep, ysep) eg. dim(4,2) makes separation b/w points xpoints as 4 and
% ypoints as 2
x1 = bounds(1);
x2 = bounds(3);
lx = (x1: dim(1):x2)';
y1 = bounds(2);
y2 = bounds(4);
ly = (y1: dim(2):y2)';
%number of points in each coordinate 
nx = length(lx);
ny = length(ly);
np = nx * ny;
%Creating Points
pts = zeros(np,2);
for i = 1:ny
    pts((1:nx)' + (i-1) * nx, 1) =lx;
    pts( (1:nx)'+(i-1)*nx, 2) = ly(i);
end
if nargout > 0 % if number of function arguments is > zero
    varargout{1} = pts;
end
end

How large can N be?

Vira Roy 2021-10-6

Thanks for your reply Matt. I do want to genralise it for arbitrary n but for this sake I am looking at a 2 *2 grid of square lattice. In the end i would like to do higher n like 3 or 4. I merely want to undersatnd the technique to do that.

For an arbitray lattice, you can always just use pdist2,

D=pdist2(pts,pts,'cityblock');
H_tp=(D==1);

This is without your circulant end conditions. The circulancy doesn't generalize in any obvious way to hexagonal or other arbitrary lattices, so I don't know in general what you would want to do. For a rectangular lattice, you would do,

e11=pts(:,1)==1; e1N=pts(:,1).'==N;
e21=pts(:,2)==1; e2N=pts(:,2).'==N;
E1=(e11&e1N); E1=E1|E1.';
E2=(e21&e2N); E2=E2|E2.';
H_tp=(D==1) | E1 | E2;

This seems to work Matt and I am thankful for your solution as well but unfortunately this is not what i was hoping for. I wanted to use the function SquareGrid to make the points and then loop around them to find the matrix elements of the matrix. The reason being that I wanted to learn the technqiue of doing that so later i can try the idea for different grid system like say hexagonal lattice for which I have function as well similar to SquareGrid.

Thanks for the help though and if you have some idea of how should i approach like i mentioned it would be helpful.
