Spin-boson models are essentially useful in the understanding of quantum optics, nuclear physics, quantum dissipation, and quantum computation. We discuss quantum phase transitions in various spin-boson Hamiltonians, compare, and contrast…

Quantum spin liquids may be considered "quantum disordered" ground states of spin systems, in which zero point fluctuations are so strong that they prevent conventional magnetic long range order. More interestingly, quantum spin liquids are…
Although spin is a core property in fermionic systems, its symmetry can be easily violated in a variational simulation, especially when strong correlation plays a vital role therein. In this study, we will demonstrate that the broken…
