Kosterlitz-Thouless phase in systems of one-dimensional strongly interacting fermions

Abstract

We present the ground state wave functions for systems of one-dimensional interacting fermions. It is shown that these systems undergo phase transitions similar to the Kosterlitz-Thouless one independently of the interaction details. In the limit of an infinitely strong interaction the phase transition turns into the usual second order phase transition in a chiral phase. The temperature of the phase transition is calculated.

BKT phase in systems of spinless strongly interacting one-dimensional fermions

V. V. Afonin, Victor Yu. Petrov

We present the ground-state wavefunctions for a system of spinless one-dimensional fermions in the limit of an infinitely strong interaction, and we demonstrate explicitly that the system symmetry is lower than the original symmetry of the Hamiltonian. As a result, the system in this limit undergoes a second-order phase transition into a phase with finite density of chiral pairs. The phase transforms continuously into a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) phase if the interaction in the model decreases. Therefore, just the BKT phase is realized in nature. The temperature of the smearing phase transition is calculated.

Correlation entropy and the Kosterlitz–Thouless transition

Xiaoling Cui, Shi-Jian Gu, Junpeng Cao +2 more

A relation between the correlation entropy and the correlation functions for the general spin-1/2 systems is obtained. It is shown that the correlation entropy catches some characters of correlation behavior and can be used to quantify the quantum and finite-temperature phase transitions, including the infinite order or topological ones. As an example, the Kosterlitz–Thouless transition in the quantum two-dimensional XY model is investigated. The critical temperature and the critical exponents are determined from the finite-size scaling analysis of the correlation entropy.

Computer Simulation Evidence for Berezhinskiǐ–Kosterlitz–Thouless-Like Transitions in One Dimension

Silvano Romano

We have considered classical spin systems, consisting of n-component unit vectors (n=2,3), associated with a one-dimensional lattice {uk, k ∈ Z}, and interacting via translationally and rotationally invariant pair potentials, of the long-range and ferromagnetic form [Formula: see text] here ε is a positive constant setting energy and temperature scales (i.e. T*=k B T/ε). Available theorems entail the existence of an ordering transition at finite temperature when 0<σ<1, and its absence for σ≥1. When σ=1, spin-wave arguments and previous simulation results suggest the existence of a transition to a low-temperature phase with slow decay of correlations and infinite susceptibility, i.e. a Berezhinskiǐ–Kosterlitz–Thouless-like transition. We have reexamined this case by a more detailed simulation study, and especially addressed the sample-size dependence of calculated observables: simulation results suggest the existence of such a transition, and the proposed estimates for the transition temperatures are Θ2=0.775±0.025 and Θ3=0.500±0.025, when n=2 and n=3, respectively.

Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transitions in two-dimensional non-Abelian spin models

Oleg Borisenko, V. Chelnokov, Francesca Cuteri +1 more

It is argued that two-dimensional U(N) spin models for any N undergo a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT)-like phase transition, similarly to the famous XY model. This conclusion follows from the Berezinskii-like calculation of the two-point correlation function in U(N) models, approximate renormalization group analysis, and numerical investigations of the U(2) model. It is shown, via Monte Carlo simulations, that the universality class of the U(2) model coincides with that of the XY model. Moreover, preliminary numerical results point out that two-dimensional SU(N) spin models with the fundamental and adjoint terms and N>4 exhibit two phase transitions of BKT type, similarly to Z(N) vector models.

Kosterlitz-Thouless universality in a Fermionic system

Shailesh Chandrasekharan A, James C. Osborn

An extension of the attractive Hubbard model is constructed to study the critical behavior near a finite-temperature superconducting phase transition in two dimensions using the recently developed meron-cluster algorithm. Unlike previous calculations in the attractive Hubbard model which were limited to small lattices, the algorithm is used to study the critical behavior on lattices as large as $128\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}128.$ These precise results show that a fermionic system can undergo a finite temperature phase transition whose critical behavior is well described by the predictions of Kosterlitz and Thouless almost three decades ago. In particular it is confirmed that the spatial winding number susceptibility obeys the well known predictions of finite size scaling for $T<{T}_{c}$ and up to logarithmic corrections the pair susceptibility scales as ${L}^{2\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\eta}}$ at large volumes with $0<~\ensuremath{\eta}<~0.25$ for $0<~T<~{T}_{c}.$
