Abstract

The ground-state universal construction of order parameters per lattice is computed for the quantum three-state Potts model in a transverse magnetic field in one spatial in terms of the iMPS algorithm.It is found that the behaviors of universal construction of order parameters are different when the control parameter crosses the critical point.This implies that the systems undergo spontaneous symmetry breaking,and we can locate the phase transition point.The critical point λc is determined from an extrapolation of the pseudo phase transition point λχ with respect to the truncation dimension,so we can get λc =0.9991,which is close to the exact critical point 1.The practical importance of universal construction of order parameters lies in computing and studying quantum phase transition.

Ground-state fidelity and entanglement entropy for the quantum three-state Potts model in one spatial dimension

The ground-state fidelity per lattice site is computed for the quantum three-state Potts model in a transverse magnetic field on an infinite-size lattice in one spatial dimension in terms of the infinite matrix product state algorithm. It is found that, on the one hand, a pinch point is identified on the fidelity surface around the critical point, and on the other hand, the ground-state fidelity per lattice site exhibits bifurcations at pseudo critical points for different values of the truncation dimension, which in turn approach the critical point as the truncation dimension becomes large. This implies that the ground-state fidelity per lattice site enables us to capture spontaneous symmetry breaking when the control parameter crosses the critical value. In addition, a finite-entanglement scaling of the von Neumann entropy is performed with respect to the truncation dimension, resulting in a precise determination of the central charge at the critical point. Finally, we compute the transverse magnetization, from which the critical exponent β is extracted from the numerical data.

Universal construction of order parameters for translation-invariant quantum lattice systems with symmetry-breaking order

Jinhua Liu, Qian‐Qian Shi, Honglei Wang +2 more

For any translation-invariant quantum lattice system with a symmetry group G, we propose a practical and universal construction of order parameters which identify quantum phase transitions with symmetry-breaking order. They are defined in terms of the fidelity between a ground state and its symmetry-transformed counterpart, and are computed through tensor network representations of the ground-state wave function. To illustrate our scheme, we consider three quantum systems on an infinite lattice in one spatial dimension, namely, the quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field, the quantum spin-1/2XYX model in an external magnetic field, and the quantum spin-1 XXZ model with single-ion anisotropy. All these models have symmetry group Z(2) and exhibit broken-symmetry phases. We also discuss the role of the order parameters in identifying factorized states.

Universal order-parameter and quantum phase transition for two-dimensional q-state quantum Potts model

Yan-Wei Dai, Sheng-Hao Li, Xihao Chen

We investigate quantum phase transitions for q-state quantum Potts models (q = 2,3,4) on a square lattice and for the Ising model on a honeycomb lattice by using the infinite projected entangled-pair state algorithm with a simplified updating scheme. We extend the universal order parameter to a two-dimensional lattice system, which allows us to explore quantum phase transitions with symmetry-broken order for any translation-invariant quantum lattice system of the symmetry group G. The universal order parameter is zero in the symmetric phase, and it ranges from zero to unity in the symmetry-broken phase. The ground-state fidelity per lattice site is computed, and a pinch point is identified on the fidelity surface near the critical point. The results offer another example highlighting the connection between (i) critical points for a quantum many-body system undergoing a quantum phase-transition and (ii) pinch points on a fidelity surface. In addition, we discuss three quantum coherence measures: the quantum Jensen–Shannon divergence, the relative entropy of coherence, and the l1 norm of coherence, which are singular at the critical point, thereby identifying quantum phase transitions.

Bifurcation in ground-state fidelity and universal order parameter for two-dimensional quantum transverse Ising model

Sheng-Hao Li, Honglei Wang, Qian‐Qian Shi +1 more

We establish an intriguing connection between quantum phase transitions and bifurcations in the ground-state fidelity per lattice site, and construct the universal order parameter for quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field on an infinite-size square lattice in two spatial dimensions, a prototypical model with symmetry breaking order. This is achieved by computing ground-state wave functions in the context of the tensor network algorithm based on the infinite projected entangled-pair state representation. Our finding is applicable to any systems with symmetry breaking order, as a result of the fact that, in the conventional Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm, a quantum system undergoing a phase transition is characterized in terms of spontaneous symmetry breaking captured by a local order parameter. In addition, a bifurcation in the reduced fidelity between two different reduced density matrices is also discussed.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking and bifurcations in ground-state fidelity for quantum lattice systems

Jian-Hui Zhao, Honglei Wang, Bo Li +1 more

Spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs in a system when its Hamiltonian possesses a certain symmetry, whereas the ground-state wave functions do not preserve it. This provides such a scenario that a bifurcation, which breaks the symmetry, occurs when some control parameter crosses its critical value. It is unveiled that the ground-state fidelity per lattice site exhibits such a bifurcation for quantum lattice systems undergoing quantum phase transitions. The significance of this result lies in the fact that the ground-state fidelity per lattice site is universal, in the sense that it is model independent, in contrast to (model-dependent) order parameters. This fundamental quantity may be computed by exploiting the developed tensor network algorithms on infinite-size lattices. We illustrate the scheme in terms of the quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field and the spin-1/2 XYX model in an external magnetic field on an infinite-size lattice in one spatial dimension.

Monte Carlo simulation of quantum Potts model

Chengxiang Ding, Yangcheng Wang, Youjin Deng +1 more

Using Monte Carlo simulations in the frame of stochastic series expansion (SSE), we study the three-state quantum Potts model. The cluster algorithm we used is a direct generalization of that for the quantum Ising model. The simulations include the one dimensional and two dimensional ferromagnetic three-state quantum Potts model and the two dimensional antiferromagnetic three-state quantum Potts model. Our results show that the phase transition of the one dimensional ferromagnetic quantum Potts model belongs to the same universality class of the two dimensional classical Potts model, the two dimensional ferromagnetic quantum Potts model undergoes a first order transition, which is also in analogy to its classical correspondence. The phase transition of the antiferromagnetic quantum Potts model is continuous, whose universality class belongs to the three-dimensional classical XY model, owing to an `emergent' O(2) symmetry at the critical point, although its ordered phase breaks the Z_6 symmetry.
