The boundary critical behavior of the two-dimensional (2D) quantum antiferromagnetic (AF) XXZ model coupled with either a dangling spin-1/2 XXZ chain or a dangling two-leg ladder on the boundary is studied with the bosonization and…
Continuous phase transitions exhibit richer critical phenomena on the surface than in the bulk, because distinct surface universality classes can be realized at the same bulk critical point by tuning the surface interactions. The…
Using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we study the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a two-dimensional lattice formed by coupling diagonal ladders. The model hosts an antiferromagnetic N\'eel phase, a rung singlet product phase, and a…
We investigate the surface critical behavior of two-dimensional multilayered aperiodic Ising models in the extreme anisotropic limit. The system under consideration is obtained by piling up two types of layers with respectively $p$ and $q$…
Surface critical behavior (SCB) refers to the singularities of physical quantities on the surface at the bulk phase transition. It is closely related to and even richer than the bulk critical behavior. In this work, we show that three types…
The special surface transition at (2+1)-dimensional quantum critical point is precluded in corresponding classical critical point. The mechanism of such behavior which is only found in dimerized Heisenberg models so far is still under…
Dangling edge spins of dimerized two-dimensional spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnets are shown to exhibit nonordinary quantum critical correlations, akin to the scaling behavior observed in recently explored spin-1/2 systems. Based on…
Dangling edge spins of two-dimensional quantum critical antiferromagnets display strongly enhanced spin correlations with scaling dimensions that fall outside of the classical theory of surface critical phenomena. We provide large-scale…
Using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we study spin-1/2 diagonal ladders coupled by ferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions. The model can also be viewed as usual ladders with ferromagnetic rung couplings coupled by antiferromagnetic…
We study the boundary critical behavior of the three-dimensional Heisenberg universality class, in the presence of a bidimensional surface. By means of high-precision Monte Carlo simulations of an improved lattice model, where leading bulk…
We design a (2+1))-dimensional [(2+1)D] quantum spin model in which spin-1/2 ladders are coupled through antiferromagnetic Ising interactions. The model hosts a quantum phase transition in the (2+1)D $Z_2$ universality class from the…
The critical behaviour of semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with short-range interactions and an O(n) invariant Hamiltonian is investigated at an $m$-axial Lifshitz point with an isotropic wave-vector instability in an $m$-dimensional…
Critical behavior of three-dimensional classical frustrated antiferromagnets with a collinear spin ordering and with an additional twofold degeneracy of the ground state is studied. We consider two lattice models, whose continuous limit…
We study the dimer $XXZ$ spin model on two-leg ladders with isotropic Heisenberg interactions on the rung and anisotropic $XXZ$ interactions along the rail in an external field. Combining both analytical and numerical methods, we set up the…
In systems displaying a bulk first-order transition the order parameter may vanish continuously at a free surface, a phenomenon which is called surface-induced disorder. In the presence of surface-induced disorder the correlation lengths,…
Using Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling, we investigate surface criticality in the O$(n)$ models on the simple-cubic lattice with $n=1$, 2, and 3, i.e. the Ising, XY, and Heisenberg models. For the critical couplings we find…
In this paper, the phase diagrams and the critical behavior of the spin-1/2 anisotropic XXZ ferromagnetic model (the anisotropic parameter {\Delta}\in(-\infty,1]) on two kinds of diamond-type hierarchical (DH) lattices with fractal…
The critical behaviour of anisotropic Heisenberg models with two kinds of antiferromagnetically exchange-coupled centers are studied numerically by using finite-size calculations and conformal invariance. These models exhibit the…
Motivated by the unexpected Monte Carlo results as well as the theoretical proposal of a large correction to scaling for the critical theory of the 2-d staggered-dimer spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the square lattice, we study the phase…
We study the surface scaling behavior of a semi-infinite $d$-dimensional O(N) spin system in the presence of quenched random field and random anisotropy disorders. It is known that above the lower critical dimension $d_{\mathrm{lc}}=4$ the…
