Entanglement in quantum critical phenomena.
Entanglement, one of the most intriguing features of quantum theory and a main resource in quantum information science, is expected to play a crucial role also in the study of quantum phase transitions, where it is responsible for the appearance of long-range correlations. We investigate, through a microscopic calculation, the scaling properties of entanglement in spin chain systems, both near ...
متن کاملSynchronistic Phenomena as Entanglement Correlations in Generalized Quantum Theory
Synchronistic or psi phenomena are interpreted as entanglement correlations in a generalized quantum theory. From the principle that entanglement correlations cannot be used for transmitting information, we can deduce the decline effect, frequently observed in psi experiments, and we propose strategies for suppressing it and improving the visibility of psi effects. Some illustrative examples ar...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity, Random Geometry and Critical Phenomena
We discuss the theory of non-critical strings with extrinsic curvature embedded in a target spac d greater than one. We emphasize the analogy between 2d gravity coupled to matter and non liquid-like membranes with bending rigidity. We rst outline the exact solution for strings in dime via the double scaling limit of matrix models and then discuss the diiculties of an extension to d > from recen...
متن کاملDirected Polymer Melts and Quantum Critical Phenomena
The statistical mechanics of directed line-like objects, such as directed polymers in an external field, strands of dipoles in both ferroand electrorheological fluids, and flux lines in high-TC superconductors bears a close resemblance to the quantum mechanics of bosons in 2 + 1 dimensions. We show that single component and binary mixture critical phenomena in these systems are in the universal...
متن کاملParity-time-symmetric quantum critical phenomena
Synthetic non-conservative systems with parity-time (PT) symmetric gain-loss structures can exhibit unusual spontaneous symmetry breaking that accompanies spectral singularity. Recent studies on PT symmetry in optics and weakly interacting open quantum systems have revealed intriguing physical properties, yet many-body correlations still play no role. Here by extending the idea of PT symmetry t...
