SO(4) multicriticality of two-dimensional Dirac fermions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study quantum multicritical behavior in a $(2+1)\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{dimensional}$ Gross-Neveu-Yukawa field theory with eight-component Dirac fermions coupled to two triplets of order parameters that act as masses and transform $(1,0)+(0,1)$ representation under the $\mathrm{S}\mathrm{O}(4)\ensuremath{\simeq} \mathrm{S}\mathrm{O}(3)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{SO}(3)$ symmetry group. This is relevant spin-1/2 on honeycomb or $\ensuremath{\pi}$-flux lattices, for example, near transition points between an $s$-wave superconductor charge-density wave, one side, N\'eel order, other. Two such always allow common pair other would complete them maximal set compatible (anticommuting) orders five. first derive unitary transformation Nambu (particle-hole) space which maps any triplets, possibly containing some superconducting orders, onto purely insulating parameters. allows consider universal SO(4) description multicriticality without doubling. then proceed renormalization-group flow coupling constants at one-loop $4\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\epsilon}$ space-time dimensions, allowing also more general transforming $\mathrm{S}\mathrm{O}({n}_{a})\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{O}({n}_{b})$. While ${n}_{a}={n}_{b}>2$ bosonic sector decoupled there stable fixed point flow, Yukawa quickly leads its elimination by generic fixed-point collision range fermion flavor numbers ${N}_{f}$. suggests replacement critical runaway physical case ${n}_{a}={n}_{b}=3$. The structure renormalization group ${n}_{a}\ensuremath{\ne}{n}_{b}$ discussed, nonperturbative arguments favor stability when ${n}_{a}=3$ ${n}_{b}=1$ $D=2+1$ are provided.

متن کاملTopological delocalization of two-dimensional massless Dirac fermions.
The beta function of a two-dimensional massless Dirac Hamiltonian subject to a random scalar potential, which, e.g., underlies theoretical descriptions of graphene, is computed numerically. Although it belongs to, from a symmetry standpoint, the two-dimensional symplectic class, the beta function monotonically increases with decreasing conductance. We also provide an argument based on the spect...

متن کاملScaling near random criticality in two - dimensional Dirac fermions
Recently the existence of a random critical line in two dimensional Dirac fermions is confirmed. In this paper, we focus on its scaling properties, especially in the critical region. We treat Dirac fermions in two dimensions with two types of randomness, a random site (RS) model and a random hopping (RH) model. The RS model belongs to the usual orthogonal class and all states are localized. For...

A monochromatic beam of wavelength λ transmitted through a periodic one-dimensional diffraction grating with lattice constant d will be spatially refocused at distances from the grating that are integer multiples of .
