Abstract

We study the quantum entanglement and quantum phase transition (QPT) of the anisotropic spin-$1/2$ $XY$ model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction by means of the quantum renormalization group method. The scaling of coupling constants and the critical points of the system are obtained. It is found that when the number of renormalization group iterations tends to infinity, the system exhibit a QPT between the spin-fluid and N\'eel phases which correspond with two saturated values of the concurrence for a given value of the strength of DM interaction. The DM interaction can enhance the entanglement and influence the QPT of the system. To gain further insight, the first derivative of the entanglement exhibit a nonanalytic behavior at the critical point and it directly associates with the divergence of the correlation length. This shows that the correlation length exponent is closely related to the critical exponent, i.e., the scaling behaviors of the system.

Entanglement and quantum phase transition in the one-dimensional anisotropic XY model

Fu-Wu Ma, Sheng-Xin Liu, Xiang-Mu Kong

In this paper the entanglement and quantum phase transition of the anisotropic spin-$1/2$ $\mathit{XY}$ model are studied by using the quantum renormalization-group method. By solving the renormalization equations, we get the trivial and nontrivial fixed points, which correspond to the phase of the system and the critical point, respectively. The concurrence between two blocks are calculated and it is found that when the number of iterations of the renormalization tends to infinity, the concurrence develops two saturated values that are associated with two different phases, i.e., Ising-like and spin-fluid phases. We also investigate the first derivative of the concurrence and find that there exists nonanalytic behaviors at the quantum critical point, which are directly associated with the divergence of the correlation length. To gain further insight, the scaling behaviors of the system are analyzed and it is shown that the maximum value of the first derivative of the concurrence reaches infinity and the critical point is approached as the size of the system increases.

NEGATIVITY AND GEOMETRIC QUANTUM DISCORD AS INDICATORS OF QUANTUM PHASE TRANSITION IN THE XY MODEL WITH DZYALOSHINSKII–MORIYA INTERACTION

Shuai Xu, XUE KE SONG, Liu Ye

In this paper, we use the negativity and geometric quantum discord (GQD) to investigate the quantum phase transition (QPT) in the anisotropic spin-1/2 XY model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction using the quantum renormalization-group method, and the results show that the negativity and GQD can both obtain the quantum critical points associated with QPTs after several iterations of the renormalization. In addition to this, we discuss how the strength of the DM interaction and anisotropic parameter make the effect on the negativity and GQD for different RG steps. At last, we give out the relationship between negativity and GQD, and verify that with anisotropy parameter and the strength of DM interaction increased, the squared negativity and the normalization of GQD tend to equal in this model.

Phase diagram and entanglement of the Ising model with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

We have studied the phase diagram and entanglement of the one-dimensional Ising model with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. We have applied the quantum renormalization-group (QRG) approach to get the stable fixed points, critical point, and the scaling of coupling constants. This model has two phases: antiferromagnetic and saturated chiral ones. We have shown that the staggered magnetization is the order parameter of the system and DM interaction produces the chiral order in both phases. We have also implemented the exact diagonalization (Lanczos) method to calculate the static structure factors. The divergence of structure factor at the ordering momentum as the size of systems goes to infinity defines the critical point of the model. Moreover, we have analyzed the relevance of the entanglement in the model which allows us to shed insight on how the critical point is touched as the size of the system becomes large. Nonanalytic behavior of entanglement and finite-size scaling have been analyzed which is tightly connected to the critical properties of the model. It is also suggested that a spin-fluid phase has a chiral order in terms of spin operators which are defined by a nonlocal transformation.

Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction and anisotropy effects on the tripartite quantum discord of Heisenberg XY model

Wajid Joyia, Khalid Khan

In this paper, we address the tripartite quantum discord for the Heisenberg XY chain with the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction using the quantum renormalization-group (QRG) method. In thermodynamic limit, like the entanglement, the tripartite discord exhibits the quantum phase transition (QPT) between the spin-fluid and the Neel phases. The effect of the DM interaction and the anisotropy on the features of the tripartite quantum discord has been probed. It is noted that the DM interaction brings the critical point earlier and affects heavily with the size of the system. Moreover, the system requires a larger number of the iterations to achieve the QPT for the tripartite quantum discord as compared to the entanglement.

Renormalization-group approach to quantum Fisher information in an XY model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Xin Liu, W. W. Cheng, Jun‐Ming Liu

We investigate the quantum Fisher information and quantum phase transitions of an XY spin chain with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction using the quantum renormalization-group method. The quantum Fisher information, its first-derivatives, and the finite-size scaling behaviors are rigorously calculated respectively. The singularity of the derivatives at the phase transition point as a function of lattice size is carefully discussed and it is revealed that the scaling exponent for quantum Fisher information at the critical point can be used to describe the correlation length of this model, addressing the substantial role of staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in modulating quantum phase transitions.

Effects of the staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction on entanglement in antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain

Cai Zhuo, Lu Wen-Bin, Yongjun Liu +1 more

By using the density-matrix renormalization group method, the spin entanglement in the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with the staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions is investigated. It is found that the staggered DM interactions remove the field-induced second order quantum phase transition of the system at the magnitude of magnetic field H＝2, and lead to the vanishing of the anomalous behavior of quantum entanglement. Also, the staggered DM interactions eliminate the divergence of entanglement range. It means the disappearance of the factorizing point in the model studied. Due to the presence of the staggered DM interactions, the system will never come to the state of saturated ferromagnetism under finite magnetic fields, thus maintaining the spin entanglement. The staggered DM interactions favor the tuning of the strength and range of spin entanglement.
