Zero temperature phase transitions in quantum Heisenberg ferromagnets
The purpose of this work is to understand the zero temperature phases, and the phase transitions, of Heisenberg spin systems which can have an extensive, spontaneous magnetic moment; this entails a study of quantum transitions with an order parameter which is also a non-abelian conserved charge. To this end, we introduce and study a new class of lattice models of quantum rotors. We compute thei...
متن کاملThermodynamic analogy for quantum phase transitions at zero temperature
We propose a relationship between thermodynamic phase transitions and groundstate quantum phase transitions in systems with variable Hamiltonian parameters. It is based on a link between zeros of the canonical partition function at complex temperatures and exceptional points of a quantum Hamiltonian in the complexextended parameter space. This approach is applied in the interacting boson model,...
متن کاملSuperconductivity and Quantum Phase Transitions in Weak Itinerant Ferromagnets
It is argued that the phase transition in low-Tc clean itinerant ferromagnets is generically of first order, due to correlation effects that lead to a nonanalytic term in the free energy. A tricritical point separates the line of first order transitions from Heisenberg critical behavior at higher temperatures. Sufficiently strong quenched disorder suppresses the first order transition via the a...
متن کاملPhase Transitions in Ferromagnets and Singularities
This paper is devoted to the investigation of critical phenomena from the mathematical pint of view. An interesting question in this field is universality (i.e. independence of the type of material and, to some extent, of the type of process) of the so-called critical exponents. We try to show that one can compute the critical exponents using structural stability arguments. The universality is ...
متن کاملFate of zero-temperature Ising ferromagnets.
We investigate the relaxation of homogeneous Ising ferromagnets on finite lattices with zero-temperature spin-flip dynamics. On the square lattice, a frozen two-stripe state is apparently reached approximately 3/10 of the time, while the ground state is reached otherwise. The asymptotic relaxation is characterized by two distinct time scales with the longer stemming from the influence of a long...
