Abstract

We investigate the quantum Fisher information and quantum phase transitions of an XY spin chain with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction using the quantum renormalization-group method. The quantum Fisher information, its first-derivatives, and the finite-size scaling behaviors are rigorously calculated respectively. The singularity of the derivatives at the phase transition point as a function of lattice size is carefully discussed and it is revealed that the scaling exponent for quantum Fisher information at the critical point can be used to describe the correlation length of this model, addressing the substantial role of staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in modulating quantum phase transitions.

Quantum entanglement and quantum phase transition in the XY model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Fu-Wu Ma, Shengxin Liu, Xiang-Mu Kong

We study the quantum entanglement and quantum phase transition (QPT) of the anisotropic spin-$1/2$ $XY$ model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction by means of the quantum renormalization group method. The scaling of coupling constants and the critical points of the system are obtained. It is found that when the number of renormalization group iterations tends to infinity, the system exhibit a QPT between the spin-fluid and N\'eel phases which correspond with two saturated values of the concurrence for a given value of the strength of DM interaction. The DM interaction can enhance the entanglement and influence the QPT of the system. To gain further insight, the first derivative of the entanglement exhibit a nonanalytic behavior at the critical point and it directly associates with the divergence of the correlation length. This shows that the correlation length exponent is closely related to the critical exponent, i.e., the scaling behaviors of the system.

Quantum coherence of an XY spin chain with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and quantum phase transition

Guo-Qing Zhang, Jing‐Bo Xu

Abstract We investigate the quantum coherence of an XY spin chain with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction using a quantum renormalization group-based method, and show that the relative entropy of coherence increases with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction strength at zero temperature, as well as at finite temperature. We also study the quantum criticality of the system by making use of the relative entropy of coherence and violation of Bell inequality, and find that the first derivatives of the renormalized quantum coherence exhibit singularity near the critical point of the quantum phase transition. Finally, we explore the finite-size scaling behaviors of the derivatives of the quantum coherence at the critical point of the quantum phase transition, and obtain several universal finite-size scaling laws.

Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction and anisotropy effects on the tripartite quantum discord of Heisenberg XY model

Wajid Joyia, Khalid Khan

In this paper, we address the tripartite quantum discord for the Heisenberg XY chain with the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction using the quantum renormalization-group (QRG) method. In thermodynamic limit, like the entanglement, the tripartite discord exhibits the quantum phase transition (QPT) between the spin-fluid and the Neel phases. The effect of the DM interaction and the anisotropy on the features of the tripartite quantum discord has been probed. It is noted that the DM interaction brings the critical point earlier and affects heavily with the size of the system. Moreover, the system requires a larger number of the iterations to achieve the QPT for the tripartite quantum discord as compared to the entanglement.

NEGATIVITY AND GEOMETRIC QUANTUM DISCORD AS INDICATORS OF QUANTUM PHASE TRANSITION IN THE XY MODEL WITH DZYALOSHINSKII–MORIYA INTERACTION

Shuai Xu, XUE KE SONG, Liu Ye

In this paper, we use the negativity and geometric quantum discord (GQD) to investigate the quantum phase transition (QPT) in the anisotropic spin-1/2 XY model with staggered Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction using the quantum renormalization-group method, and the results show that the negativity and GQD can both obtain the quantum critical points associated with QPTs after several iterations of the renormalization. In addition to this, we discuss how the strength of the DM interaction and anisotropic parameter make the effect on the negativity and GQD for different RG steps. At last, we give out the relationship between negativity and GQD, and verify that with anisotropy parameter and the strength of DM interaction increased, the squared negativity and the normalization of GQD tend to equal in this model.

Renormalization of Tripartite Entanglement in Spin Systems with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction

Meng Qin, Li Wang, Bili Wang +3 more

Quantum entanglement represents a fundamental feature of quantum many-body systems. We combine tripartite entanglement with quantum renormalization group theory to study the quantum critical phenomena. The Ising model and the Heisenberg X X Z model in the presence of the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction are adopted as the research objects. We identify that the tripartite entanglement can signal the critical point. The derivative of tripartite entanglement shows singularity as the spin chain size increases. Furthermore, the intuitive scaling behavior of the system selected is studied and the result allows us to precisely quantify the correlation exponent by utilizing the power law .

Quantum phase transitions and quantum-information characterization of a non-Hermitian XY chain with staggered Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya interactions

Hong Jiang, Xiang-Ping Jiang, Yan-Chao Li

We investigate the phase diagram of a non-Hermitian XY chain with staggered Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya (DM) interactions using quantum-information methods. Through an alternating local-spin-rotation transformation, the model is mapped onto a standard DM-free XY chain, and the resulting transformed Hamiltonian exhibits rotation--time-reversal ($\RT$) symmetry. Combining correlation-function analysis with known phase results of the standard XY chain, we construct the phase diagram for the present system. We further adopt quantum-information-based quantities to systematically assess their performance in characterizing quantum phase transitions within this non-Hermitian system. Our results show that single-site entanglement can only detect the Luttinger-liquid (LL)--paramagnetic (PM) phase transition, which corresponds to the exceptional boundary across which $\RT$ symmetry is restored. In contrast, quantum discord (QD) and quantum coherence (QC) identify both phase boundaries: in addition to locating the exceptional boundary, their second-order derivatives resolve the ferromagnetic (FM)--LL transition inside the $\RT$-broken region. Moreover, measurements of QC along different directions capture the DM-induced relative rotation between the two sublattices, thereby distinguishing the staggered-DM chain from a zero-DM chain with identical effective parameters.
