Spin Dynamics in the XY Model

Abstract

We investigate the dynamics of entanglement, quantum correlation and classical correlation for the one-dimensional XY model in a transverse magnetic field. With the initial state polarized along the z axis, we find that the first maximum of the classical correlation between the nearest neighbor sites peaks around the critical point for large anisotropy parameter. It may indicate the quantum phase transition. For all kinds of correlation, we find that their behaviors between the nearest neighbor sites are significantly different from those of the next-nearest neighbor sites.

Spin dynamics in the XY model

Rong-Chun Ge, Chuan‐Feng Li, Guang‐Can Guo

We study the evolution of entanglement, quantum correlation and classical correlation for the one dimensional XY model in external transverse magnetic field. The system is initialized in the full polarized state along the z axis, after annealing, different sites will become entangled. We study the three kinds of correlation for both the nearest and the next-nearest neighbor sites. We find that for large anisotropy parameter the quantum phase transition can be indicated by the dynamics of classical correlation between the nearest neighbor sites. We find that the dynamics of entanglement for both the nearest and next-nearest neighbor sites show significantly different behaviors with different values of magnetic field. We also find that the evolution of quantum correlation and classical correlation of the nearest neighbor sites are obviously different from those of the next-nearest neighbor sites.

Entanglement in a simple quantum phase transition

Tobias J. Osborne, Michael A. Nielsen

What entanglement is present in naturally occurring physical systems at thermal equilibrium? Most such systems are intractable and it is desirable to study simple but realistic systems that can be solved. An example of such a system is the one-dimensional infinite-lattice anisotropic $\mathrm{XY}$ model. This model is exactly solvable using the Jordan-Wigner transform, and it is possible to calculate the two-site reduced density matrix for all pairs of sites. Using the two-site density matrix, the entanglement of formation between any two sites is calculated for all parameter values and temperatures. We also study the entanglement in the transverse Ising model, a special case of the $\mathrm{XY}$ model, which exhibits a quantum phase transition. It is found that the next-nearest-neighbor entanglement (though not the nearest-neighbor entanglement) is a maximum at the critical point. Furthermore, we show that the critical point in the transverse Ising model corresponds to a transition in the behavior of the entanglement between a single site and the remainder of the lattice.

Dynamics of entanglement in the transverse Ising model

Zhe Chang, Ning Wu

We study the evolution of nearest-neighbor entanglement in the one-dimensional Ising model with an external transverse field. The system is initialized as the so-called thermal ground state of the pure Ising model. We analyze properties of the generation of entanglement for different regions of external transverse fields. We find that the derivative of the time at which the entanglement reaches its first maximum with respect to the reciprocal transverse field has a minimum at the critical point. This is an indicator of quantum phase transition.

Magnetic quantum correlations in the one-dimensional transverse-field XXZ model

Salimeh Mahdavifar, S. Mahdavifar, Rouhollah Jafari

One-dimensional spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ systems are well-known candidates to study the quantum correlations between particles. In condensed matter physics, studies often are restricted to first-neighbor particles. In this work, we consider the one-dimensional $XXZ$ model in a transverse magnetic field (TF) which is not integrable except at specific points. Analytical expressions for quantum correlations (entanglement and quantum discord) between spin pairs at any distance are obtained for both zero and finite temperature by using the analytical approach proposed by Caux et al. [Phys. Rev. B 68, 134431 (2003)]. We compare the efficiency of the quantum discord (QD) with respect to the entanglement in the detection of critical points as the neighboring spin pairs go farther than the next-nearest neighbors. In the absence of the TF and at zero temperature, we show that the QD for spin pairs farther than the second neighbors is able to capture the critical points while the pairwise entanglement is absent. In contrast with the pairwise entanglement, two-site QD is effectively long range in the critical regimes where it decays algebraically with the distance between pairs. We also show that the thermal QD between neighbor spins possesses strong distinctive behavior at the critical point that can be seen at finite temperature and, therefore, spotlights the critical point while the entanglement fails in this task.

Quantum Phase Transition and Quantum Entanglement in the Generalized Cluster-XY Model

Aydin Deger

In this work, we give a detailed analytic treatment of one-dimensional anisotropic XY model in the transverse field. We present a multipartite geometric measure of entanglement per site and per block and use it for quantifying global entanglement in many-body systems. We also investigate spontaneous symmetry breaking and Quantum Phase Transition (QPT) in the model. Further, we extend the solution of the XY model to the n-site interaction and diagonalize the Hamiltonian and obtain energy levels and eigenvalues. We also examine Quantum Entanglement and QPT for next-nearest neighbor interaction and halfway interaction. At last, we introduce a Generalized Cluster-XY Hamiltonian with n-site interaction. Through this, one can diagonalize many suitable bilinear Hamiltonians by defining parameters that characterize the model. By using the model, we investigate QPT between Ferromagnetic-Paramagnetic state, GHZ-Cluster state and symmetry protected topological order and an antiferromagnetic state. | 96 pages

Level crossing and quantum phase transition of the XY model

Jun Jing, Ma, H. R.

The ground state of a one-dimensional spin-1/2 chain with periodical boundary condition in the Heisenberg XY model is investigated. We consider the spatial correlation and concurrence between any nearest-neighbor pair of spins under the conditions of different coupling strength, anisotropic parameter and magnitude of a transverse field. Quantum phase transitions due to the competition between coupling and alignment which cause the abrupt changes of the correlation and concurrence are observed. The transition are direct results of the level crossing.
