In this work, we investigate quantum phase transition (QPT) in a generic family of spin chains using the ground-state energy, the energy gap, and the geometric measure of entanglement (GE). In many of prior works, GE per site was used.…
Dynamical quantum phase transitions can occur following quenches in quantum systems when the rate function, a dynamical analogue of the free energy, becomes non-analytic at critical times. Here we exhaustively investigate in an exemplary…
We consider a class of global quantum quenches in the Heisenberg XXZ spin chain, where the initial states are given by products of local two-site states. The two main examples are the N\'eel state and the dimer state. We derive an exact…
