I begin with a proposed global phase diagram of the cuprate superconductors as a function of carrier concentration, magnetic field, and temperature, and highlight its connection to numerous recent experiments. The phase diagram is then used…

From general arguments, that are valid for spin models with sufficiently short-range interactions, we derive strong constraints on the excitation spectrum across a continuous phase transition at zero temperature between a magnetic and a…

We study the isotropic Heisenberg chain with nearest and next-nearest neighbour interactions. The ground state phase diagram is constructed in dependence on the additonal interactions and an external magnetic field. The thermodynamics is…

The double-layer Heisenberg antiferromagnet with intra- and inter-layer couplings $J$ and $J_\perp$ exhibits a zero temperature quantum phase transition between a quantum disordered dimer phase for $g>g_c$ and a Neel phase with long range…

Motivated by recent advancements in theoretical and experimental studies of the high-energy excitations on an antiferromagnetic trimer chain, we numerically investigate the quantum phase transition and composite dynamics in this system by…

We study the phase diagram and the quantum phase transitions of a site-diluted two-dimensional O(3) quantum rotor model by means of large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations. This system has two quantum phase transitions, a generic one for small…

This article is aimed at a pedagogical introduction to the physics of quantum phase transitions that is unique to metallic systems. It has been recognized for some time that quantum criticality can result in a breakdown of Landau's Fermi…

We present high precision estimates of the exponents of a quantum phase transition in a planar antiferromagnet. This has been made possible by the recent development of cluster algorithms for quantum spin systems, the loop algorithms. Our…

We study a quantum phase transition from a massless to massive Dirac fermion phase in a new two-dimensional bipartite lattice model of electrons that is amenable to sign-free quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Importantly, interactions in our…

We have investigated the finite temperature dynamics of the singlet to doublet continuous quantum phase transition in the gapped Anderson impurity model using hybridization expansion continuous time quantum Monte-Carlo. Using the…

Experimental realization of magnetic field induced quantum phase transition (QPT) is reported for NH4CuPO4.H2O, a two spin cluster material with isotropic Heisenberg interaction. Experimental magnetization and specific heat data have been…

The quantum ferromagnetic transition of itinerant electrons is considered. We give a pedagogical review of recent results which show that zero-temperature soft modes that are commonly neglected, invalidate the standard…

We consider generalized zero-temperature Glauber dynamics under partially synchronous updating mode for a one dimensional system. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we calculate the phase diagram and show that the system exhibits phase…

We develop an analytical approach based on a unitary transformation to investigate S=1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains coupled to phonons, and find a new quantum phase transition at zero temperature. Although the usual phase…

Metallic quantum criticality is frequently discussed as a source for non-Fermi liquid behavior, but controlled theoretical treatments are scarce. Here we identify and study a novel magnetic quantum critical point in a two-dimensional…

We consider the quantum ferromagnetic transition at zero temperature in clean itinerant electron systems. We find that the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson order parameter field theory breaks down since the electron-electron interaction leads to…

The interpretation of the magnetic phase diagrams of strongly correlated electron systems remains controversial. In particular, the physics of quantum phase transitions, which occur at zero temperature, is still enigmatic. Heavy-fermion…

Zero-temperature or quantum phase transitions in itinerant electronic systems both with and without quenched disordered are discussed. Phase transitions considered include, the ferromagnetic transition, the antiferromagnetic transition, the…

The effect of a magnetic field on a gapped quantum magnet is described within the framework of the Quantum Dimer Model. A minimal model describing the proliferation of itinerant spinons above a critical field is proposed and investigated by…

We present a study of the critical phenomena around the quantum critical point in heavy-fermion systems. In the framework of the S=1/2 Kondo lattice model, we introduce an extended decoupling scheme of the Kondo interaction which allows one…
