The prolate-oblate shape phase transition in the interacting boson model

Yu Zhang, J. Xu, Si-Han Li +1 more

The prolate-oblate shape phase transition in the the interacting boson model is revisited by adopting the transitional Hamiltonian with a linear dependence on the control parameter. The analysis of the shape phase transition in both the large-N limit and finite N case shows that the O(6) symmetry is robust as the critical point symmetry of the prolate-oblate shape phase transition.

Entanglement entropy as a signature of a quantum phase transition in nuclei in the framework of the interacting boson model and interacting boson-fermion model

M. A. Jafarizadeh, Maryam Ghapanvari, Narjes Amiri

Background: One of the fundamental problems of quantum information science is quantum entanglement. Recently, quantum phase transition in nuclear systems is studied in connection with quantum entanglement.Purpose: In this paper, the use of entanglement entropy as a suitable signal for the study of quantum phase transition in the even-even and odd-$A$ nuclei is investigated. The effect of the coupling of a single fermion to a boson core on entanglement entropy is studied.Method: By use of the affine $SU(1,1)$ Lie algebra and through the Schmidt decomposition in the framework of the interacting boson model (IBM) and interacting boson-fermion model (IBFM), entanglement entropy in the even-even and odd-$A$ are obtained. The entanglement entropy is used for tracking and studying the shape phase transition in these nuclei.Results: The entanglement entropy in the IBM and the IBFM is calculated. The entanglement entropy values of the low-lying states of $^{122--134}\mathrm{Xe}, ^{102--110}\mathrm{Pd}$, and $^{123--133}\mathrm{Xe}$ were calculated and analyzed. It is found that entanglement entropy is a suitable order parameter to detect shape phase transition in nuclear systems.Conclusions: The obtained results indicate that the entropy of entanglement is sensitive to the shape-phase transition between spherical and $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-unstable regions in nuclei. The results show that entanglement entropy is a powerful tool for identifying shape phase transitions in nuclei. It is found that the coupling of the single fermion with angular momentum $j$ to the even-even system does not change the geometry imposed by the boson core performing the transition and only the entanglement entropy values have been shifted by the addition of the odd particle with respect to the even case.
