For a system near a quantum critical point (QCP), above its lower critical dimension $d_L$, there is in general a critical line of second order phase transitions that separates the broken symmetry phase at finite temperatures from the…
Nonequilibrium dynamics are studied near the quantum phase transition point in the one-dimensional quantum Blume-Emery-Griffiths model. Its pseudo-spin component $ S^z $ represents an electric polarization, and $ (S^z)^2 $ corresponds to…
