Abstract

Based on the recursion relation formulas and the Jacobi matrix from the theory of orthogonal polynomials, a numeric solution for the Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick (LMG) model Hamiltonian is given, without considering any restriction on the parameters specifying the strengths of the interactions included in the LMG model. Moreover, via this method, we have studied the shape phase transitions for one example of nuclei. At the end we compare the results thus obtained with those of Bethe ansatz and Hartree–Fock methods.

Quantum phase transitions in the LMG model by means of quantum information concepts

Octavio Castaños, Ramón López–Peña, Eduardo Nahmad-Achar +1 more

Quantum phase transitions are currently studied in several fields of physics, as examples one finds: in nuclear physics the shape phase transitions within the Interacting Boson Model; in quantum optics two level atoms interacting with a one mode electromagnetic radiation in a cavity; and in condensed matter in the analysis of the behavior of spin systems. In this contribution we employ the fidelity and its susceptibility, two concepts widely used in quantum information theory, to determine the quantum phase transitions of the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model together with its scaling properties. By means of these concepts, we propose a quantum method to determine the crossings and anti-crossings present in a model Hamiltonian as a function of the control parameters of the model. A review of the separatrix of the LMG model is done to compare the results obtained by means of quantum information concepts with those related with the singular behavior of the energy surface of the model, which is the expectation value of the Hamiltonian with respect to spin coherent states.

Equations of motion for a spectrum-generating algebra: Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick model

George Rosensteel, DAVID J. ROWE, Shen Yong Ho

For a spectrum-generating Lie algebra, a generalized equations-of-motion scheme determines numerical values of excitation energies and algebra matrix elements. In the approach to the infinite particle number limit or, more generally, whenever the dimension of the quantum state space is very large, the equations-of-motion method may achieve results that are impractical to obtain by diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matrix. To test the method's effectiveness, we apply it to the well-known Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick (LMG) model to find its low-energy spectrum and associated generator matrix elements in the eigenenergy basis. When the dimension of the LMG representation space is 106, computation time on a notebook computer is a few minutes. For a large particle number in the LMG model, the low-energy spectrum makes a quantum phase transition from a nondegenerate harmonic vibrator to a twofold degenerate harmonic oscillator. The equations-of-motion method computes critical exponents at the transition point.

The Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick Model and its Deformations through Polynomial Algebras

N. Debergh, Floarea Stancu

We consider the many-particle Hamiltonian of Lipkin, Meshkov and Glick in the context of deformed algebras. The reducibility of the original model is proved according to the representations of these polynomial algebras. The LMG spectrum is recovered in such a way as well as supplementary eigenvalues associated to deformed LMG models.

The Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model from the perspective of theSU(1,1) Richardson-Gaudin models

Sergio Lerma-Hernández, J. Dukelsky

Originally introduced in nuclear physics as a numerical laboratory to test different many-body approximation methods, the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model has received much attention as a simple enough but non-trivial model with many interesting features for areas of physics beyond the nuclear one. In this contribution we look at the LMG model as a particular example of an SU (1,1) Richardson-Gaudin model. The characteristics of the model are analyzed in terms of the behavior of the spectral-parameters or pairons which determine both eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the model Hamiltonian. The problem of finding these pairons is mathematically equivalent to obtain the equilibrium positions of a set of electric charges moving in a two dimensional space. The electrostatic problems for the different regions of the model parameter space are discussed and linked to the different energy density of states already identified in the LMG spectrum.

Extended Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick Hamiltonian

R Romano, X. Roca-Maza, G. Colò +1 more

Abstract The Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick (LMG) model was devised to test the validity of different approximate formalisms to treat many-particle systems. The model was constructed to be exactly solvable and yet non-trivial, in order to capture some of the main features of real physical systems. In the present contribution, we explicitly review the fact that different many-body approximations commonly used in different fields in physics clearly fail to describe the exact LMG solution. With similar assumptions as those adopted for the LMG model, we propose a new Hamiltonian based on a general two-body interaction. The new model (extended LMG) is not only more general than the original LMG model and, therefore, has a potentially larger spectrum of applicability, but also the physics behind its exact solution can be much better captured by common many-body approximations. At the basis of this improvement lies a new term in the Hamiltonian that depends on the number of constituents and polarizes the system; the associated symmetry breaking is discussed, together with some implications for the study of more realistic systems.

New polynomials associated with a special LMG model

Feng Pan, Lina Bao, Liyuan Zhai +2 more

Abstract: New polynomials associated with a special Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model corresponding to the standard two-site Bose-Hubbard model are derived based on the Stieltjes correspondence. It is shown that there is a one-to-one correspondence between zeros of this new polynomial and solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations for the LMG model. A one-dimensional classical electrostatic analogue corresponding to the special LMG model is established according to Stieltjes early work. It shows that any possible configuration of equilibrium positions of the charges in the electrostatic problem corresponds uniquely to one set of roots of the Bethe ansatz equations for the LMG model, and the number of possible configurations of equilibrium positions of the charges equals exactly to the number of energy levels in the LMG model. Some relations of sums of powers and inverse powers of zeros of the new polynomials related to the eigenenergies of the LMG model are derived.
