Tensor network investigation of the hard-square model

Using the corner-transfer matrix renormalization group to contract the tensor network that describes its partition function, we investigate the nature of the phase transitions of the hard-square model, one of the exactly solved models of statistical physic ...

Nonequilibrium quasistationary spin disordered state in ?-RuCl3

Zhe Wang

We photoexcite high-energy holon-doublon pairs as a way to alter the magnetic free energy landscape and resulting phase diagram of the frustrated honeycomb magnet ??-RuCl3. The pair recombination through multimagnon emission is tracked through the time evo ...

From SU(2)5 to SU(2)3 Wess-Zumino-Witten transitions in a frustrated spin-52 chain

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

We investigate the properties of a frustrated spin-5/2 chain with next-nearest-neighbor two- and three-site interactions, with two questions in mind: the nature of the transition into the dimerized phase induced by the three-site interaction, and the possi ...

A quantum magnetic analogue to the critical point of water

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand, Ellen Fogh, Ludger Weber, Mohamed Zayed, Julio Antonio Larrea Jiménez, Kazimierz Conder

At the liquid-gas phase transition in water, the density has a discontinuity at atmospheric pressure; however, the line of these first-order transitions defined by increasing the applied pressure terminates at the critical point(1), a concept ubiquitous in ...

Lifshitz point at commensurate melting of chains of Rydberg atoms

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

The recent investigation of chains of Rydberg atoms has brought back the problem of commensurateincommensurate transitions into the focus of current research. In two-dimensional classical systems or in one-dimensional quantum systems, the commensurate melt ...

Broken-Symmetry Ground States of the Heisenberg Model on the Pyrochlore Lattice

Giuseppe Carleo, Ao Chen

The spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the pyrochlore lattice is an iconic frustrated three-dimensional spin system with a rich phase diagram. Besides hosting several ordered phases, the model is debated to possess a spin-liquid ground state when only nearest-ne ...

Helimagnons and Skyrmion Dynamics in Cu2OSeO3 and Fe/Gd Multilayers Explored by Brillouin Light Scattering and X-ray Microscopy

Ping Che

Spin dynamics in skyrmion hosting materials provide novel functionality in magnonics because of the formation of a novel magnon band structure and the nanoscale sizes of magnetic skyrmions. In this thesis, we explore the spin dynamics in the chiral magnet ...

Unified analysis of topological defects in 2D systems of active and passive disks

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Pasquale Digregorio

We provide a comprehensive quantitative analysis of localized and extended topological defects in the steady state of 2D passive and active repulsive Brownian disk systems. We show that, both in and out-of-equilibrium, the passage from the solid to the hex ...

Phase separation of self-propelled disks with ferromagnetic and nematic alignment

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Elena Sesé Sansa

We present a comprehensive study of a model system of repulsive self-propelled disks in two dimensions with ferromagnetic and nematic velocity alignment interactions. We characterize the phase behavior of the system as a function of the alignment and self- ...
