Four-coloring model and frustrated superfluidity in the diamond lattice.

چکیده
We propose a novel four-coloring model which describes "frustrated superfluidity" of p-band bosons in the diamond optical lattice. The superfluid phases of the condensate wave functions on the diamond-lattice bonds are mapped to four distinct colors at low temperatures. The fact that a macroscopic number of states satisfy the constraints that four differently colored bonds meet at the same site leads to an extensive degeneracy in the superfluid ground state at the classical level. We demonstrate that the phase of the superfluid wave function as well as the orbital angular momentum correlations exhibit a power-law decay in the degenerate manifold that is described by an emergent magnetostatic theory with three independent flux fields. Our results thus provide a novel example of critical superfluid phase with algebraic order in three dimensions. We further show that quantum fluctuations favor a Néel ordering of orbital angular moments with broken sublattice symmetry through the order-by-disorder mechanism.

Impurity effects in highly frustrated diamond-lattice antiferromagnets
We consider the effects of local impurities in highly frustrated diamond-lattice antiferromagnets, which exhibit large but nonextensive ground-state degeneracies. Such models are appropriate to many A-site magnetic spinels. We argue very generally that sufficiently dilute impurities induce an ordered magnetic ground state and provide a mechanism of degeneracy breaking. The states that are selec...
متن کاملQuantum Paramagnet and Frustrated Quantum Criticality in a Spin-One Diamond Lattice Antiferromagnet
Motivated by the proposal of topological quantum paramagnet in the diamond lattice antiferromagnet NiRh2O4, we propose a minimal model to describe the magnetic interaction and properties of the diamond material with the spin-one local moments. Our model includes the first and second neighbor Heisenberg interactions as well as a local single-ion spin anisotropy that is allowed by the spin-one na...

The classical J1-J2 Heisenberg model on bipartite lattice exhibits "Neel" order. However if the AF interactions between the next nearest neighbor(nnn) are increased with respect to the nearest neighbor(nn), the frustration effect arises. In such situations, new phases such as ordered phases with coplanar or spiral ordering and disordered phases such as spin liquids can arise. In this paper we ...

سیستمهای الکترونی همبسته قوی در شبکههای ناکام
We give an overview of recent work on charge degrees of freedom of strongly correlated electrons on geometrically frustrated lattices. Special attention is paid to the checkerboard lattice, i.e., the two-dimensional version of a pyrochlore lattice and to the kagomé lattice. For the checkerboard lattice it is shown that at half filling when spin degrees of freedom are neglected and at quarter f...
