To examine the validity of the scenario of the deconfined critical phenomena, we carry out a quantum Monte Carlo simulation for the SU($N$) generalization of the Heisenberg model with four-body and six-body interactions. The quantum phase…
SU(2) lattice gauge theory is extended to a larger coupling space where the coupling parameter for horizontal (spacelike) plaquettes, $\beta_H$, differs from that for vertical (Euclidean timelike) plaquettes, $\beta_V$. When $\beta_H…
We consider the easy-plane limit of bipartite SU($N$) Heisenberg Hamiltonians which have a fundamental representation on one sublattice and the conjugate to fundamental on the other sublattice. For $N=2$ the easy plane limit of the SU(2)…
We investigate thermal phase transitions to a valence-bond solid phase in SU(N) Heisenberg models with four- or six-body interactions on a square or honeycomb lattice, respectively. In both cases, a thermal phase transition occurs that is…
We generalize the SU(N=2) $S=1/2$ square-lattice quantum magnet with nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic coupling ($J_1$) and next-nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic coupling ($J_2$) to arbitrary $N$. For all $N>4$, the ground state has…
We consider a model Hamiltonian with two SU(4) fermions per site on a square lattice, showing a competition between bilinear and biquadratic interactions. This model has generated interest due to possible realizations in ultracold atom…
We investigate the ground state of the SU($4$) Heisenberg model on a square lattice with spatial anisotropy on each plaquette bond using the tensor-network method based on infinite projected entangled pair states. We find that the SU($4$)…
We propose quantum phase transitions beyond the Landau's paradigm of Sp(4) spin Heisenberg models on the triangular and square lattices, motivated by the exact Sp(4)$\simeq$ SO(5) symmetry of spin-3/2 fermionic cold atomic system with only…
We study a large-N generalization of $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg model on square lattice -- an $Sp(2N)$ spin model. The possible quantum spin liquid phases of the $Sp(2N)$ model are studied using the SU(2) projective construction. We find…
We present numerical results for an $S=1/2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a inhomogeneous square lattice with tunable interaction between spins belonging to different plaquettes. Employing Quantum Monte Carlo, we significantly improve on…
We investigate the nature of the quantum phase transition in modulated SU(N) Heisenberg spin chains. In the odd-N case, the transition separates a trivial non-degenerate phase to a doubly-degenerate gapped chiral PSU(N) symmetry-protected…
We map out the ground state phase diagram of a one-dimensional SU($N$) Kondo-Heisenberg lattice model at half filling and in the fully antisymmetric self-adjoint representation as a function of $\tfrac {1}{N}$ and Kondo coupling $J_k/t$. On…
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we study a Higgs transition in several three-dimensional lattice realizations of the noncompact CP$^1$ model (NCCP$^1$), a gauge theory with two complex matter fields with SU(2) invariance. By comparing with a…
We study the quantum phase transition out of the Neel state in SU(3) and SU(4) generalizations of the Heisenberg anti-ferromagnet with a sign problem free four spin coupling (so-called JQ model), by extensive quantum Monte Carlo…
We introduce an SU($N$) symmetric two-dimensional quantum spin model, the X-Q model, which hosts a ground state transition between N\'eel antiferromagnetic and spontaneously dimerized states. The Q terms are products of two adjacent singlet…
We resolve the nature of the quantum phase transition between a N\'eel antiferromagnet and a valence-bond solid in two-dimensional spin-1/2 magnets. We study a class of $J$-$Q$ models, in which Heisenberg exchange $J$ competes with…
We study two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnets with additional multi-spin interactions which can drive the system into a valence-bond solid state. For standard SU(2) spins, we consider both four- and six-spin interactions. We find…
We study the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice with nearest-neighbor and plaquette four-spin exchanges (introduced by A.W. Sandvik, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 227202 (2007).) This model undergoes a quantum phase…
We study the quantum phase transition between the superfluid and valence bond solid in "easy-plane" J-Q models on the square lattice. The Hamiltonian we study is a linear combination of two model Hamiltonians: (1) an SU(2) symmetric model,…
We study a Heisenberg S=1/2 ring-exchange antiferromagnet which exhibits a quantum phase transition from a spontaneously dimerized (valence bond solid) phase to a magnetically ordered (Neel) phase. We argue that the quantum transition is of…
