A quantum fidelity study of the anisotropic next-nearest-neighbour triangular lattice Heisenberg model

Mischa Thesberg, Erik Schwartz Sørensen

Ground- and excited-state quantum fidelities in combination with generalized quantum fidelity susceptibilites, obtained from exact diagonalizations, are used to explore the phase diagram of the anisotropic next-nearest-neighbour triangular Heisenberg model. Specifically, the J'-J2 plane of this model, which connects the J1-J2 chain and the anisotropic triangular lattice Heisenberg model, is explored using these quantities. Through the use of a quantum fidelity associated with the first excited-state, in addition to the conventional ground-state fidelity, the BKT-type transition and Majumdar-Ghosh point of the J1-J2 chain (J'=0) are found to extend into the J'-J2 plane and connect with points on the J2=0 axis thereby forming bounded regions in the phase diagram. These bounded regions are then explored through the generalized quantum fidelity susceptibilities χρ, χ₁₂₀°, χD and χCAF which are associated with the spin stiffness, 120° spiral order parameter, dimer order parameter and collinear antiferromagnetic order parameter respectively. These quantities are believed to be extremely sensitive to the underlying phase and are thus well suited for finite-size studies. Analysis of the fidelity susceptibilities suggests that the J', J2≪J phase of the anisotropic triangular model is either a collinear antiferromagnet or possibly a gapless disordered phase that is directly connected to the Luttinger phase of the J1-J2 chain. Furthermore, the outer region is dominated by incommensurate spiral physics as well as dimer order.

NUMERICAL STUDIES OF FRUSTRATED QUANTUM PHASE TRANSITIONS IN TWO AND ONE DIMENSIONS

Mischa Thesberg

This thesis, comprising three publications, explores the efficacy of novel generalization of the fidelity susceptibility and their numerical application to the study of frustrated quantum phase transitions in two and one dimensions. Specifically, they will be used in exact diagonalization studies of the various limiting cases of the anisotropic next-nearest neighbour triangular lattice Heisenberg model (ANNTLHM). These generalized susceptibilities are related to the order parameter susceptibilities and spin stiffness and are believed to exhibit similar behaviour although with greater sensitivity. This makes them ideal for numerical studies on small systems. Additionally, the utility of the excited-state fidelity and twist boundary conditions will be explored. All studies are done through numerical exact diagonalization. In the limit of interchain couplings going to zero the ANNTLHM reduces to the well studied $J_1-J_2$ chain with a known, difficult to identify, BKT-type transition. In the first publication of this work the generalized fidelity susceptibilities introduced therein are shown to be able to identify this transition as well as characterize the already understood phases it straddles. The second publication of this work then seeks to apply these generalized fidelity susceptibilities, as well as the excited-state fidelity, to the study of the general phase diagram of the ANNTLHM. It is shown that the regular and excited-state fidelities are useful quantities for the mapping of novel phase diagrams and that the generalized fidelity susceptibilities can provide valuable information as to the nature of the phases within the mapped phase regions. The final paper sees the application of twisted boundary conditions to the anisotropic triangular model (next-nearest neighbour interactions are zero). It is demonstrated that these boundary conditions greatly enhance the ability to numerically explore incommensurate physics in small systems.

The Conjugate Field Fidelity Susceptibility (CFFS): A Novel Computational Approach to Quantum Phase Transitions

Michael Thesberg

This work introduces a new technique for the determination of quantum phase transitions known as the Conjugate Field Fidelity Susceptibility (CFFS) approach. The CFFS method draws highly on the Quantum Information concept of quantum fidelity susceptibility. An initial introduction to the computational tricks needed to feasibly calculate quantum fidelities will be given. Following this will be a discussion of the nature, derivation and applications of the quantum fidelity and fidelity susceptibilities. Then the CFFS technique will be described before applying it to identify a BKT(Berezinsky-Kosterlitz-Thouless) transition in the Next-Nearest Neighbour Heisenberg Spin Chain. Finally, the method will be applied to confirm the more robust phase diagram of the Next-Nearest Neighbour Heisenberg model on an anisotropic triangular lattice.
