Summary:Modeling dynamical processes of quasiparticles in low dimensional [Formula: see text]-conjugated systems is challenging due to electron-phonon coupling. We show that this interaction leads to linear potential energy terms in the lattice Lagrangian similar to a local "gravitational" field. The presence of quasiparticles deforms this field in a way analogous to a low-dimension solution of general relativity. Our calculations with analytical expressions for effective [Formula: see text]-fields yield the correct band structure and deliver proper time evolution of the quasiparticle's properties. Furthermore, we report a sharp reduction in the dynamics computational time up to two orders of magnitude, a result that has major simulation implications.
