The nature of phase transitions involving the questions why and how phase transitions take place has not been sufficiently touched in the literature. In contrast, the current attention to certain extent still focus on the description of…
We study the q-state Potts model on the simple cubic lattice with ferromagnetic interactions in one lattice direction, and antiferromagnetic interactions in the two other directions. As the temperature T decreases, the system undergoes a…
The Potts model is a generalization of the Ising model with $Q>2$ components. In the fully connected ferromagnetic Potts model, a first-order phase transition is induced by varying thermal fluctuations. Therefore, the computational time…
Motivated by the recent experimental observation of a Mott insulating state for the layered Iridate Na2IrO3, we discuss possible ordering states of the effective Iridium moments in the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling and a magnetic…
The changeover from first-order to second-order phase transitions in q-state Potts models is obtained at q_c=2 in spatial dimension d=3 and essentially at q_c=4 in d=2, using a physically intuited simple adaptation of the Migdal-Kadanoff…
We consider the two-dimensional dilute q-state Potts model on its first order phase transition surface for 0<q\leq 4. After determining the exact scattering theory which describes the scaling limit, we compute the two-kink form factors of…
We investigate the nature of the phase transition of the ferromagnetic Potts model with invisible states. The ferromagnetic Potts model with invisible states can be regarded as straightforward extension of the standard ferromagnetic Potts…
The quantum phase transition (QPT) of the one-dimensional (1D) quantum compass model in a transverse magnetic field is studied in this paper. An exact solution is obtained by using an extended Jordan and Wigner transformation to the…
Topological states of matter are promising resources for composing fault-tolerant quantum computers, advancing beyond the limitations of current noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. To enable this progress, a deep understanding of…
The Kitaev model exhibits a Quantum Spin Liquid hosting emergent fractionalized excitations. We study the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice coupled to a magnetic field along the [111] axis. Utilizing large scale matrix product based…
The Potts model is one of the most popular spin models of statistical physics. The prevailing majority of work done so far corresponds to the lattice version of the model. However, many natural or man-made systems are much better described…
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 one-dimensional topological superconductor, the Kitaev chain, under the influence of a non-Hermitian but $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric potential. This potential introduces gain and loss in the system in equal parts. We show that the…
We investigate the critical behaviour of the three-dimensional, three state Potts model in presence of a negative external field h, i.e. disfavouring one of the three states. A genuine phase transition is present for all values of |h|,…
The investigation of the first-order quantum phase transition (QPT) is far from clarity in comparison to that of the second-order or continuous QPT, in which the order parameter and associated broken symmetry can be clearly identified and…
We investigate the low-energy spectral properties and robustness of the topological phase of color code, which is a quantum spin model for the aim of fault-tolerant quantum computation, in the presence of a uniform magnetic field or Ising…
We present a theoretical study of field-induced magnetic phases in the honeycomb Kitaev-Heisenberg model, which is believed to describe the essential physics of Mott insulators with strong spin-orbit coupling such as $A_2$IrO$_3$ and…
We study, by the Mean Field and Monte Carlo methods, a generalized q-state Potts gonihedric model. The phase transition of the model becomes stronger with increasing $q.$ The value $k_c(q),$ at which the phase transition becomes second…
We study the interplay between the Kitaev and Ising interactions on both ladder and two dimensional lattices. We show that the ground state of the Kitaev ladder is a symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phase, which is protected by a…
A quantum phase transition (QPT), including both topological and symmetry breaking types, is usually induced by the change of global parameters, such as external fields or global coupling constants. In this work, we demonstrate the…
