We show that, in the most general $N$-component theory with symmetry O(n_1)+O(n_2), N=n_1+n_2\geq 3, the O(N)-symmetric fixed point has (at least) three unstable directions: the temperature, the quadratic anisotropy, and the spin-4 quartic…

The phase diagram of the spin-1 chain with bilinear-biquadratic and next-nearest neighbor inter- actions, recently investigated by Pixley, Shashi and Nevidomskyy [Phys. Rev. B 90, 214426 (2014)], has been revisited in the light of results…
Recent proposal of the duality between the $N=2$ noncompact QED$_3$ and the easy-plane noncompact CP$^1$ (NCCP$^1$) model suggests that the deconfined quantum critical point (dQCP) between the easy-plane antiferromagnet and the VBS order on…
