Phase transition of the Ising model is investigated on a planar lattice that has a fractal structure. On the lattice, the number of bonds that cross the border of a finite area is doubled when the linear size of the area is extended by a…

The transverse-field Ising model is one of the fundamental models in quantum many-body systems, yet a full understanding of its dynamics remains elusive in higher than one dimension. Here, we show for the first time the breakdown of…

We discuss quantum dynamics in the transverse field Ising model in two spatial dimensions. We show that, up to a prethermal timescale, which we quantify, the Hilbert space 'shatters' into dynamically disconnected subsectors. We identify…
We address the quantum dynamics of a system composed of a qubit globally coupled to a many-body system characterized by short-range interactions. We employ a dynamic finite-size scaling framework to investigate the out-of-equilibrium…
As perhaps the most studied paradigm for a quantum phase transition, the periodic quantum Ising chain is exactly solvable via the Jordan-Wigner transformation followed by a Fourier transform that diagonalizes the model in the momentum space…
This paper rests to a large extend on a paper I wrote some time ago on 'Duality in generalized Ising models and phase transitions without local order parameter'. It deals with Ising models with interactions containing products of more than…
We study decoherence induced on a two-level system coupled to a one-dimensional quantum spin chain. We consider the cases where the dynamics of the chain is determined by the Ising, XY, or Heisenberg exchange Hamiltonian. This model of…
Nonequilibrium dynamics of an isolated quantum spin chain with long-range Ising interactions that decay as $1/r^\alpha$ ($0<\alpha<1$) with the distance $r$ is studied. It turns out that long-range interactions give rise to a big timescale…
We study relaxation spectra of a quadratic spinless--fermion helical chain with an Aubry--Andre--type quasiperiodic potential and a single N--th neighbor (helical) hopping. Dissipation and pumping are introduced via local linear Lindblad…
