Quantum Renormalization of Spin Squeezing in Spin Chains

Abstract

By employing quantum renormalization group (QRG) method, we investigate quantum phase transitions (QPT) in the Ising transverse field (ITF) model and in the XXZ Heisenberg model, with and without Dzyaloshinskii Moriya (DM) interaction, on a periodic chain of N lattice sites. We adopt a new approach called spin squeezing as an indicator of QPT. Spin squeezing, through analytical expression of a spin squeezing parameter, is calculated after each step of QRG. As the scale of the system becomes larger, (after many QRG steps), the ground state (GS) spin squeezing parameters show an abrupt change at a quantum critical point (QCP). Moreover, in all of the studied models, the first derivative of the spin squeezing parameter with respect to the control parameter is discontinuous, which is a signature of QPT. The spin squeezing parameters develop their saturated values after enough QRG iterations. The divergence exponent of the first derivative of the spin squeezing parameter in the near vicinity of the QCP is associated with the critical exponent of the correlation length.

Entanglement and quantum phase transition in the Heisenberg—Ising model

Xiaodong Tan, Bai-Qi Jin, Wei Gao

We use the quantum renormalization-group (QRG) method to study the entanglement and quantum phase transition (QPT) in the one-dimensional spin-1/2 Heisenberg—Ising model [Lieb E, Schultz T and Mattis D 1961 Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) 16 407]. We find the quantum phase boundary of this model by investigating the evolution of concurrence in terms of QRG iterations. We also investigate the scaling behavior of the system close to the quantum critical point, which shows that the minimum value of the first derivative of concurrence and the position of the minimum scale with an exponent of the system size. Also, the first derivative of concurrence between two blocks diverges at the quantum critical point, which is directly associated with the divergence of the correlation length.

Quantum phase transition and entanglement in XXZ Heisenberg spin chain

N. Hachem, El Mostafa Jalal, M. Salama +2 more

Abstract Using the quantum renormalization group approach, we have investigated the entanglement and critical behavior of an anisotropic XXZ Heisenberg spin chain. The resolution of the quantum renormalization equations yields stable and unstable fixed points, corresponding respectively to the phases and critical point of the system. It is shown that a quantum phase transition exists at a critical anisotropy parameter , separating the Néel phase from the spin-fluid phase. Then, the concurrence between two blocks of sites and the quantum coherence have been calculated and presented for various renormalization group iterations. In the thermodynamic limit, i.e. , for higher renormalization steps, the concurrence and coherence exhibit two different saturated values in the two regions separated by Δ c . The first derivative of concurrence diverges at the critical point as the size of the chain increases, showing nonanalytic behavior. Moreover, the scaling behavior has been examined near the critical point with some universal exponential scaling laws.

Quantum renormalization group of the XY model in two dimensions

M. Usman, Asif Ilyas, Khalid Khan

We investigate entanglement and quantum phase transition in a two-dimensional Heisenberg anisotropic spin-$1/2\mathit{XY}$ model, using the quantum renormalization-group method (QRG) on a square lattice of $N\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}N$ sites. The entanglement through geometric average of concurrences is calculated after each step of the QRG. We show that the concurrence achieves a nonzero value at the critical point more rapidly as compared to the one-dimensional case. The relationship between the entanglement and the quantum phase transition is studied. The evolution of entanglement develops two saturated values corresponding to two different phases. We compute the derivative of the concurrence, which is found to be discontinuous at the critical point $\ensuremath{\gamma}=0$, and indicates a second-order phase transition in the spin system. Further, the scaling behavior of the system is investigated by computing the derivative of the concurrence in terms of the system size.

Investigation of the Behavior of Quantum Coherence in Quantum Phase Transitions of Two-Dimensional XY and Ising Models

Narjes Taghadomi, Azam Mani, Ali Bakouei

We investigate the behavior of quantum coherence of the ground states of 2D Heisenberg XY model and 2D Ising model with transverse field on square lattices, by using the method of Quantum Renormalization Group (QRG). We show that the non-analytic behavior of quantum coherence near the critical point, can detect quantum phase transition (QPT) of these models. We also use the scaling behavior of maximum derivative of quantum coherence, with system size, to find the critical exponent of coherence for both models and also the length exponent of the Ising model. The results are in close agreement with the ones obtained from entanglement analysis, that is while quantum coherence needs less computational calculations in comparison to entanglement approaches.

Detecting quantum phase transition in multipartite spin systems via bipartite detectors

Jixue Liu, Jiaojiao Chen, Jiadong Shi +1 more

Abstract Here we employ trace distance and bipartite correlations as the detectors for quantum phase transitions (QPTs). Their performances behaving in Ising spin chains with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction and an external transverse field are studied, respectively. Exploiting the quantum renormalization group method, all the detectors can effectively characterize the QPTs at the critical points. Moreover, the block–block correlations existing in the multipartite spin systems never violate the Bell inequality with the DM interaction, whereas they are enough to violate this inequality under the transverse field. Finally, we detail the nonanalytic and scaling behavior of the trace distance, which is tightly connected to the critical features of spin systems.

The renormalization of geometric quantum discord in the transverse Ising model

Xiu-Xing Zhang, Hongrong Li

Using the quantum renormalization group (QRG) method, we investigate the ground state geometric measure of quantum discord (GQD) of the transverse Ising model. The analytical expression of GQD together with the RG recurrence relations are obtained. The critical and scaling behaviors of GQD are investigated. Our results show that with the increasing of RG steps, GQD (first derivative of GQD) exhibits sudden change (dip) in behavior at the critical point, which indicates that the system undergoes phase transitions between the Ising and the paramagnetic phases. The critical exponent that governs the divergences of the first derivative of GQD is calculated. How the critical point of the model is approached as the increasing of the system size is revealed.
