Staggered flux state for rectangular-lattice spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Dmitri Ivanov, Bastien Dalla Piazza, Noore Elahi Shaik

We investigate the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a rectangular lattice, using the Gutzwiller projected variational wave function known as the staggered flux state. Using Monte Carlo techniques, the variational parameters and instantaneous spin-spin correlat ...

Fractional excitations in the square-lattice quantum antiferromagnet

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Dmitri Ivanov, Bastien Dalla Piazza, Martin Mourigal, Goran Nilsen, Mechthild Enderle

Quantum magnets have occupied the fertile ground between many-body theory and low-temperature experiments on real materials since the early days of quantum mechanics. However, our understanding of even deceptively simple systems of interacting spin-1/2 par ...

Magnetic interference patterns in long disordered Josephson junctions

Benoît Crouzy, Dmitri Ivanov

We study a diffusive superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor (SNS) junction in an external magnetic field. In the limit of a long junction, we find that the form of the dependence of the Josephson current on the field and on the length of the junction d ...

Hybridization of wave functions in one-dimensional localization

Dmitri Ivanov

A quantum particle can be localized in a disordered potential, the effect known as Anderson localization. In such a system, correlations of wave functions at very close energies may be described, due to Mott, in terms of a hybridization of localized states ...

Vison excitations in near-critical quantum dimer models

Dmitri Ivanov

We study vison excitations in a quantum dimer model interpolating between the Rokhsar-Kivelson models on the square and triangular lattices. In the square-lattice case, the model is known to be critical and characterized by U(1) topological quantum numbers ...

Phase transitions in full counting statistics for periodic pumping

Dmitri Ivanov

We discuss the problem of full counting statistics for periodic pumping. The probability generating function is usually defined on a circle of the "physical" values of the counting parameter, with its periodicity corresponding to charge quantization. The e ...

Correlations of the local density of states in quasi-one-dimensional wires

Dmitri Ivanov

We report a calculation of the correlation function of the local density of states in a disordered quasi-one-dimensional wire in the unitary symmetry class at a small energy difference. Using an expression from the supersymmetric sigma model, we obtain the ...

Effective spin-flip scattering in diffusive superconducting proximity systems with magnetic disorder

Dmitri Ivanov

We revisit the problem of diffusive proximity systems involving superconductors and normal metals (or ferromagnets) with magnetic disorder. On the length scales much larger than its correlation length, the effect of sufficiently weak magnetic disorder may ...

Factorization of quantum charge transport for noninteracting fermions

Dmitri Ivanov

We show that the statistics of the charge transfer of noninteracting fermions through a two-lead contact is generalized binomial at any temperature and for any form of the scattering matrix: an arbitrary charge-transfer process can be decomposed into indep ...

Statistics of quantum transfer of noninteracting fermions in multiterminal junctions

Dmitri Ivanov

Similarly to the recently obtained result for two-terminal systems, we show that there are constraints on the full counting statistics for noninteracting fermions in multiterminal contacts. In contrast to the two-terminal result, however, there is no facto ...
