Exact numerical results of the interacting boson model Hamiltonian along the integrable line from U(5) to O(6) are obtained by diagonalization within boson seniority subspaces. The matrix Hamiltonian reduces to a block tridiagonal form that can be diagonalized for large number of bosons. We present results for the low-energy spectrum and the transition probabilities for systems up to 10,000 bosons, which confirm that at the critical point the system is equally well described by the Bohr Hamiltonian with a ${\ensuremath{\beta}}^{4}$ potential.Exact numerical results of the interacting boson model Hamiltonian along the integrable line from U(5) to O(6) are obtained by diagonalization within boson seniority subspaces.

Quantum models with the Yang-Lee phase transition

Erick Arguello Cruz, Grigory Tarnopolsky

In this article, we present four different $1+1$ D quantum models that realize the Yang-Lee (YL) phase transition under a deformation that preserves $PT$ symmetry. These are the antiferromagnetic Ising spin chain in transverse and longitudinal magnetic fields, the massive Schwinger model, the Blume-Capel model, and the three-state quantum clock model. Using the state-operator correspondence, we identify the YL critical point, compute the scaling dimensions of the lowest operators in each model, and find perfect agreement with the exact results for the YL criticality in two dimensions. Using bosonization for the Schwinger model and the Polyakov-Hubbard transformation for the other models, we show that in all of these quantum models the YL critical point is described, as expected, by a massless bosonic field with an $i φ^3$ interaction. In the quantum clock model, this critical field interacts with a massive bosonic field, and we identify the massless and massive states in the Hamiltonian spectrum. In addition, we numerically compute the two-point function of $φ$ at the Yang-Lee critical point and show that it grows with distance, in agreement with theoretical expectations.In this article, we present four different $1+1$D quantum models that realize the Yang-Lee (YL) phase transition under a deformation that preserves $PT$ symmetry.

Bosonization and scale invariance on quantum wires

Brando Bellazzini, Mihail Mintchev, P. Sorba

We develop a systematic approach to bosonization and vertex algebras on quantum wires of the form of star graphs. The related bosonic fields propagate freely in the bulk of the graph, but interact at its vertex. Our framework covers all possible interactions preserving unitarity. Special attention is devoted to the scale invariant interactions, which determine the critical properties of the system. Using the associated scattering matrices, we give a complete classification of the critical points on a star graph with any number of edges. Critical points where the system is not invariant under wire permutations are discovered. By means of an appropriate vertex algebra we perform the bosonization of fermions and solve the massless Thirring model. In this context we derive an explicit expression for the conductance and investigate its behavior at the critical points. A simple relation between the conductance and the Casimir energy density is pointed out.We develop a systematic approach to bosonization and vertex algebras on quantum wires of the form of star graphs.
