Using the electrostatic analogy, we derive an exact formula for the limiting Yang-Lee zero distribution in the random allocation model of general weights. This exhibits a real-space condensation phase transition, which is induced by a…
We show that phase transitions in the quantum $q$-state clock model for $q \leq 4$ can be characterized by an enhanced decay behavior of the Loschmidt echo via a small quench. The quantum criticality of the quantum $q$-state clock model is…

We study the dynamical quantum phase transition(DQPT) of the Bose-Hubbard model utilizing recently developed Loschmidt cumulants method. We determine the complex Loschmidt zeros of the Loschmidt amplitude analogous to the Lee-Yang zeros of…
The dynamical quantum phase transition is characterized by the emergence of nonanalytic behaviors in the rate function, corresponding to the occurrence of exact zero points of the Loschmidt echo in the thermodynamical limit. In general,…
By setting the inverse temperature $\beta$ loose to occupy the complex plane, Fisher showed that the zeros of the complex partition function $Z$, if approaching the real $\beta$ axis, reveal a thermodynamic phase transition. More recently,…
