In a conformal invariant one-dimensional stochastic model, a certain non-local perturbation takes the system to a new massless phase of a special kind. The ground-state of the system is an adsorptive state. Part of the finite-size scaling…
We study the entanglement entropy and entanglement spectrum of the paradigmatic Bose-Hubbard model, describing strongly correlated bosons on a lattice. The use of a controlled approximation - the slave-boson approach - allows us to study…
A new version of the change of the "phase" (i.e., of the set of observable characteristics) of a quantum system is proposed. In a general scenario the evolution is assumed generated, before the phase transition, by some standard Hermitian…
