Entanglement on Ising model with Dzyalshinksy-Moriya interaction
C.T. Gonzalez-H, R. Franco, Jereson Silva-Valencia
Abstract
"We have studied the quantum phase transition of the Ising model with Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya (DM) interaction, by means of measures of entanglement as concurrence and von Neumann entropy. The study was performed using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG). The parameter which drives the phase transition in this model is the D, which accounts for the strength of the DM interaction. The model has two phases, an antiferromagnetic phase and a chiral saturated phase, with critical point D = 1. By calculating the entanglement measures for both, open and periodic boundary conditions it was found that the critical point is signaled by an extreme behavior of the entanglement measure, maximum or minimum, it was also found these measures seem to tend to an asymptotic value when D → ∞ representing the chiral saturated phase."
