Berry-Phase-Induced Dimerization in One-Dimensional Quadrupolar Systems

Shijie Hu, Ari M. Turner, Karlo Penc +1 more

We investigate the effect of the Berry phase on quadrupoles that occur, for example, in the low-energy description of spin models. Specifically, we study here the one-dimensional bilinear-biquadratic spin-one model. An open question for many years about this model is whether it has a nondimerized fluctuating nematic phase. The dimerization has recently been proposed to be related to Berry phases of the quantum fluctuations. We use an effective low-energy description to calculate the scaling of the dimerization according to this theory and then verify the predictions using large scale density-matrix renormalization group simulations, giving good evidence that the state is dimerized all the way up to its transition into the ferromagnetic phase. We furthermore discuss the multiplet structure found in the entanglement spectrum of the ground state wave functions.

Antiferromagnetic fluctuations in the quantum phase transition of the one-dimensional electron system

Norikazu Tomita

Quantum antiferromagnetic (AF) fluctuations that promote the charge-density-wave (CDW)-AF state phase transition in the one-dimensional (1D) extended Hubbard model are clarified for the strong correlation regime. It is clearly shown that the CDW wave function contains quantum fluctuations due to the AF domains near the phase boundary. Though the size of these AF domains stays finite, its density to the system size becomes asymptotically zero in the infinite-size limit. This indicates the quantum decoherence, or the first order phase transition between the CDW and AF state. On the other hand, the survived AF domains would naturally evolve into the quantum nucleation that triggers the CDW-AF state phase transition.

Quantum coherence and decoherence of correlated electron states in the one-dimensional charge-density-wave–spin-density-wave phase transition

Norikazu Tomita

The charge-density-wave (CDW)--spin-density-wave (SDW) phase transition of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model is investigated in the strong correlation regime, from the viewpoint of the quantum coherence or decoherence of the two correlated states. In the finite-size system, the CDW wave function, near the phase boundary, has the significant quantum fluctuations due to the SDW domains. The superposition of these SDW domains leads to the quantum coherence between the CDW and SDW wave functions. However, the scaling analysis shows that the density of the SDW fluctuations becomes asymptotically zero in the infinite-size limit, which indicates the decoherence of the two states in the bulk phase transition.
