Although the topological order is known as a quantum order in quantum many-body systems, it seems that there is not a one-to-one correspondence between topological phases and quantum phases. As a well-known example, it has been shown that…

We study a continuous quantum phase transition that breaks a $Z_2$ symmetry. We show that the transition is described by a new critical point which does not belong to the Ising universality class, despite the presence of well defined…
