Deconfined quantum critical points.
The theory of second-order phase transitions is one of the foundations of modern statistical mechanics and condensed-matter theory. A central concept is the observable order parameter, whose nonzero average value characterizes one or more phases. At large distances and long times, fluctuations of the order parameter(s) are described by a continuum field theory, and these dominate the physics ne...
متن کاملEntanglement entropy of random quantum critical points in one dimension.
For quantum critical spin chains without disorder, it is known that the entanglement of a segment of N>>1 spins with the remainder is logarithmic in N with a prefactor fixed by the central charge of the associated conformal field theory. We show that for a class of strongly random quantum spin chains, the same logarithmic scaling holds for mean entanglement at criticality and defines a critical...
متن کاملHole dynamics in an antiferromagnet across a deconfined quantum critical point
We study the effects of a small density of holes, δ, on a square lattice antiferromagnet undergoing a continuous transition from a Néel state to a valence bond solid at a deconfined quantum critical point. We argue that at non-zero δ, it is likely that the critical point broadens into a non-Fermi liquid ‘holon metal’ phase with fractionalized excitations. The holon metal phase is flanked on bot...
متن کاملVector boson excitations near deconfined quantum critical points.
We show that the Néel states of two-dimensional antiferromagnets have low energy vector boson excitations in the vicinity of deconfined quantum critical points. We compute the universal damping of these excitations arising from spin-wave emission. Detection of such a vector boson will demonstrate the existence of emergent topological gauge excitations in a quantum spin system.
