Abstract

A real-space tight-binding model of fermions involving the competition between an attraction V between the localized fermion pairs on different sites and an ordinary one-particle hopping t is introduced. The ground-state properties of its one-dimensional version are studied with use of numerically exact finite-chain calculations for up to N=10 sites. A transition of the essential singularity type between the band and the localized-pairs state is found for finite V/t.
