We study the transmission of both classical or quantum information through all the phases of a finite XXZ spin chain. This characterizes the merit of the different phases in terms of their ability to act as a quantum wire. As far as quantum…

We investigate the quantum phase transition (QPT) in the XXZ central spin model, which can be described as a spin-1/2 particle coupled to N bath spins. In general, the QPT is supposed to occur only in the thermodynamical limit. In contrast,…
