Abstract

We study the phase diagram of an electron on a square lattice in a transverse magnetic field. Using a renormalization scheme, we show that the inequality of the two next-nearest neighbor couplings destroys the fat critical regime above the bicritical line and replaces it with another reentrant extended phase. Furthermore, the universal strange attractor describing self-similar fluctuations of the localized phase is replaced by a new fixed point. The reentrant extended phase and the new fixed point of the localized phase belong to the universality class of an anisotropic triangular lattice.

The re-entrant phase diagram of the generalized Harper equation

Jukka A. Ketoja, Indubala I. Satija

We study the phase diagram of the tight-binding model for an electron on an anisotropic square lattice with a four-dimensional parameter space defined by two nearest-neighbour and two next-nearest-neighbour couplings. Using a renormalization scheme, we show that the inequality of the two next-nearest-neighbour couplings destroys the fat critical regime found in the isotropic case above the bicritical line and replaces it with another re-entrant extended phase. The scaling properties of the model are those of the corresponding tight-binding models on the nearest-neighbour square and triangular lattices. The triangular universality class also describes the quantum Ising chain in a transverse field with the only exception being the conformally invariant state of the Ising model which has no analogue in the triangular-lattice case.

Bloch Electron on a Triangular Lattice and Quantum Ising Model in a Transverse Field

Jukka A. Ketoja, Indubala I. Satija

The tight binding model for an electron on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a uniform magnetic field is studied using a decimation scheme. The model exhibits a transition from critical to localized phase and the phase diagram is described in terms of three nontrivial renormalization fixed points for the band edges. These subcritical, critical, and supercritical universality classes also describe the corresponding states of the quantum Ising chain in a modulating transverse field. The only exception is the conformally invariant point of the Ising model which has no analog in the electron problem.

Phase diagram and critical behavior of the square-lattice Ising model with competing nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor interactions

Junqi Yin, David Paul Landau

Using the parallel tempering algorithm and graphics processing unit accelerated techniques, we have performed large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model on a square lattice with antiferromagnetic (repulsive) nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor interactions of the same strength and subject to a uniform magnetic field. Both transitions from the (2x1) and row-shifted (2x2) ordered phases to the paramagnetic phase are continuous. From our data analysis, re-entrance behavior of the (2x1) critical line and a bicritical point which separates the two ordered phases at T=0 are confirmed. Based on the critical exponents we obtained along the phase boundary, Suzuki's weak universality seems to hold.

Local moments versus itinerant antiferromagnetism: Magnetic phase diagram and spectral properties of the anisotropic square lattice Hubbard model

Marcin Raczkowski, Fakher F. Assaad, Masatoshi Imada

Using a cluster extension of the dynamical mean-field theory (CDMFT) we map out the magnetic phase diagram of the anisotropic square lattice Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor intrachain $t$ and interchain ${t}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$ hopping amplitudes at half filling. A fixed value of the next-nearest-neighbor hopping ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}=\ensuremath{-}{t}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}/2$ removes the nesting property of the Fermi surface and stabilizes a paramagnetic metal phase in the weak-coupling regime. In the isotropic and moderately anisotropic regions, a growing spin entropy in the metal phase is quenched out at a critical interaction strength by the onset of long-range antiferromagnetic (AF) order of preformed local moments. It gives rise to a first-order metal-insulator transition consistent with the Mott-Heisenberg picture. In contrast, a strongly anisotropic regime ${t}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}/t\ensuremath{\lesssim}0.3$ displays a quantum critical behavior related to the continuous transition between an AF metal phase and the AF insulator. Hence, within the present framework of CDMFT, the opening of the charge gap is magnetically driven as advocated in the Slater picture. We also discuss how the lattice-anisotropy-induced evolution of the electronic structure on a metallic side of the phase diagram is tied to the emergence of quantum criticality.

Reentrant behavior in the nearest-neighbor Ising antiferromagnet in a magnetic field

Minos A. Neto, J. Ricardo de Sousa

Motived by the $H\text{\ensuremath{-}}T$ phase diagram in the bcc Ising antiferromagnetic with nearest-neighbor interactions obtained by Monte Carlo simulation [Landau, Phys. Rev. B 16, 4164 (1977)] that shows a reentrant behavior at low temperature, with two critical temperatures in magnetic field about 2% greater than the critical value ${H}_{c}=8J$, we apply the effective field renormalization group (EFRG) approach in this model on three-dimensional lattices (simple cubic-sc and body centered cubic-bcc). We find that the critical curve ${T}_{N}(H)$ exhibits a maximum point around of $H\ensuremath{\simeq}{H}_{c}$ only in the bcc lattice case. We also discuss the critical behavior by the effective field theory in clusters with one (EFT-1) and two (EFT-2) spins, and a reentrant behavior is observed for the sc and bcc lattices. We have compared our results of EFRG in the bcc lattice with Monte Carlo and series expansion, and we observe a good accordance between the methods.

Square lattice hard-core bosons within the random phase approximation

Tatiana N. Antsygina, M. I. Poltavskaya, Igor Poltavsky +1 more

Using random phase approximation we build finite-temperature phase diagrams and calculate thermodynamic functions of a square lattice hard-core boson model with nearest (nn) and next-nearest-neighbor (nnn) interactions in terms of equivalent to it an anisotropic spin-1/2 $XXZ$ model in a magnetic field. The system undergoes liquid-solid phase transitions that can be either of the first or second order. Depending on the hopping value and ratio between nn and nnn interactions the system displays two types of critical behavior. The line of the first-order transitions terminates in a bicritical end point inside the solid phase or ends in a tricritical point continuously giving way to the second-order phase transition line. The connection of the hopping and the ratio between the nn and nnn interactions with criticality of the system is investigated. The critical line separating the regions of specific critical behavior is built. Reentrant liquid-solid-liquid phase transitions are found and discussed.
