متن کاملNature of phase transitions in a generalized complex zcz4 model
We employ Monte Carlo simulations to study a generalized three-dimensional complex ucu4 theory of Ginzburg-Landau form and compare our numerical results with a recent quasianalytical mean-field-type approximation, which predicts first-order phase transitions in parts of the phase diagram. As we have shown earlier, this approximation does not apply to the standard formulation of the model. This ...
متن کاملGeneralized Entanglement in Static and Dynamic Quantum Phase Transitions
We investigate a class of one-dimensional, exactly solvable anisotropic XY spin-1/2 models in an alternating transverse magnetic field from an entanglement perspective. We find that a physically motivated Lie-algebraic generalized entanglement measure faithfully portraits the static phase diagram – including secondand fourth-order quantum phase transitions belonging to distinct universality cla...
متن کاملNew ordered phases in a class of generalized XY models.
It is well known that the 2D XY model exhibits an unusual infinite order phase transition belonging to the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) universality class. Introduction of a nematic coupling into the XY Hamiltonian leads to an additional phase transition in the Ising universality class [D. H. Lee and G. Grinstein, Phys. Rev. Lett. 55, 541 (1985)]. Using a combination of extensive Monte Carlo simula...
