Abstract

We characterize the energy transport in a one dimensional Z3\mathbb{Z}_3 chiral clock model. The model generalizes the Z2\mathbb{Z}_2 symmetric transverse field Ising model (TFIM). The model is parametrized by a chirality parameter θ\theta, in addition to ff and JJ which are analogous to the transverse field and the nearest neighbour spin coupling in the TFIM. Unlike the well studied TFIM and XYZ models, does not transform to a fermionic system. We use a matrix product states implementation of the Lindblad master equation to obtain the non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) in systems of sizes up to 4848. We present the estimated NESS current and its scaling exponent γ\gamma as a function of θ\theta at different f/Jf/J. The estimated γ(f/J,θ)\gamma(f/J,\theta) point to a ballistic energy transport along a line of integrable points f=Jcos3θf=J\cos{3\theta} in the parameter space; all other points deviate from ballistic transport. Analysis of finite size effects within the available system sizes suggest a diffusive behavior away from the integrable points.
