Once more on the equivalence between quantum phase transition phenomena in radiation-matter and magnetic systems

Abstract

In answer to the replies of Reslen {\it et al} [arXiv: quant-ph/0507164 (2005)], and Liberti and Zaffino [arXiv:cond-mat/0507019, (2005)], we comment once more on the temperature-dependent effective Hamiltonians for the Dicke model derived by them in [Europhys. Lett., {\bf 69} (2005) 8] and [Eur. Phys. J., {\bf 44} (2005) 535], respectively. These approximate Hamiltonians cannot be correct for any finite nonzero temperature because they both violate a rigorous result. The fact that the Dicke model belongs to the universality class of, and its thermodynamics is described by the infinitely coordinated transverse-field XY model is known for more than 30 years.

Comment on equivalence between quantum phase transition phenomena in radiation-matter and magnetic systems

J.G. Brankov, N. S. Tonchev, Valentin Anatol'evich Zagrebnov

In this Comment we show that the temperature-dependent effective Hamiltonian derived by Reslen {\it et al} [Europhys. Lett., {\bf 69} (2005) 8] or that one by Liberti and Zaffino [arXiv:cond-mat/0503742] for the Dicke model cannot be correct for any temperature. They both violate a rigorous result. The former is correct only in the quantum (zero-temperature) limit while the last one only in the classical (infinite temperature) limit. The fact that the Dicke model belongs to the universality class of the infinitely coordinated transverse-field XY model is known for more then 30 years.

Direct equivalence between quantum phase transition phenomena in radiation-matter and magnetic systems: Scaling of entanglement

Jose Reslen, Luis Quiroga, Neil F. Johnson

We show that the quantum phase transition arising in a standard radiation-matter model (Dicke model) belongs to the same universality class as the infinitely coordinated, transverse-field XY model. The effective qubit-qubit exchange interaction is shown to be proportional to the square of the qubit-radiation coupling. A universal finite-size scaling is derived for the corresponding two-qubit entanglement (concurrence) and a size-consistent effective Hamiltonian is proposed for the qubit subsystem.

Comment on "Role of Matter Interactions in Superradiant Phenomena"

Max Hörmann, Anja Langheld, Jonas Leibig +2 more

Recently, Mendonça et al. [arXiv:2503.04961] investigated the Dicke-XXZ model and the Dicke-Ising model. For the latter model, their calculated quantum phase diagram contradicts claims about the existence of an intermediate phase with superradiant and antiferromagnetic order and the change in order of some phase transition lines, observed in other studies. In this comment we demonstrate that both features are indeed present in the Dicke-Ising model for the investigated parameter range in [arXiv:2503.04961].
