Quantum selection for spin systems

Statistical Mechanics 2018-08-03 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We report mathematical results on the process by which quantum order by disorder takes place for spin systems. The selection rules follow the influence of several competing contributions. Moreover there is no link between quantum selection and thermal selection. We present work in the general setting as well as toy models and examples for which quantum selection has an interesting behaviour.
