A quasi one--dimensional system of trapped, repulsively interacting atoms (e.g., an ion chain) exhibits a structural phase transition from a linear chain to a zigzag structure, tuned by reducing the transverse trap potential or increasing…

Despite of simplicity of the transverse antiferromagnetic Ising model with a uniform longitudinal field, its phases and involved quntum phase transitions (QPTs) are nontrivial in comparison to its ferromagnetic counterpart. For example,…

The presence of competing interactions due to geometry leads to frustration in quantum spin models. As a consequence, the ground state of such systems often displays a large degeneracy that can be lifted due to thermal or quantum effects.…

We consider a range of unconventional modifications to Quantum Annealing (QA), applied to an artificial trial problem with continuously tunable difficulty. In this problem, inspired by "transverse field chaos" in larger systems, classical…

Two objects can be distinguished if they have different measurable properties. Thus, distinguishability depends on the Physics of the objects. In considering graphs, we revisit the Ising model as a framework to define physically meaningful…

The rotational and fine structure of open-shell molecules in a $\Sigma$ electronic state gives rise to crossings between Zeeman states of different parity. These crossings become avoided in the presence of an electric field. We propose an…
