Quantum cluster algorithm for frustrated Ising models in a transverse field

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2016-06-08 v1

Abstract

Working within the stochastic series expansion framework, we introduce and characterize a new quantum cluster algorithm for quantum Monte Carlo simulations of transverse field Ising models with frustrated Ising exchange interactions. As a demonstration of the capabilities of this new algorithm, we show that a relatively small, ferromagnetic next-nearest neighbour coupling drives the transverse field Ising antiferromagnet on the triangular lattice from an antiferromagnetic three-sublattice ordered state at low temperature to a ferrimagnetic three-sublattice ordered state.
