调制长度(和时间)指数的普适性

Universality of modulation length (and time) exponents

Saurish Chakrabarty, Vladimir Dobrosavljevic, Alexander Seidel, Zohar Nussinov

摘要:

我们研究了具有交叉参数λ的系统,例如温度T,其具有阈值λ *,在该阈值λ * 上,关联函数从呈现固定波长(或时间段)调制改变为连续变化的调制长度(或时间)。我们报告了一个新的指数,nuL,表征这种交叉的普遍性。这些指数,类似于标准的相关长度指数,从运动的动量(或频率)空间关联函数的极点在复杂的k平面(或ω平面)的参数λ是变化的。在交叉点附近,可变调制长度“相位”上的特征调制波矢量KR通过下式与固定调制长度侧的特征调制波矢量q相关:|KR-q| \propto| T-T*|^{nuL}.一般来说,nuL=1/2。在某些特殊情况下,nuL可能会得到其他有理数。我们将这一结果扩展到一般的问题,其中一个运营商的特征值或一个极点一般的响应函数可能会达到一个恒定的实(或虚)部超过一个特定的阈值,λ *。我们讨论这个结果的扩展到多个其他领域。其中包括ANNNI模型。通过扩展我们的考虑,我们评论的关系,不仅调制长度(或时间),但也标准的相关长度(或时间)。我们引入约瑟夫森时标的概念。我们评论的“混沌”调制的存在下,在“软自旋”和其他系统。这些与玻璃类型特征有关。我们讨论了费米系统的应用-特别是应用到金属带绝缘体过渡,费米表面拓扑结构的变化,发散有效质量,狄拉克系统,和拓扑绝缘体。在强关联的电子系统中,可以发现规则的周期性和玻璃态(以及空间混沌行为)。

英文摘要:

We study systems with a crossover parameter lambda, such as the temperature T, which has a threshold value lambda* across which the correlation function changes from exhibiting fixed wavelength (or time period) modulations to continuously varying modulation lengths (or times). We report on a new exponent, nuL, characterizing the universal nature of this crossover. These exponents, similar to standard correlation length exponents, are obtained from motion of the poles of the momentum (or frequency) space correlation functions in the complex k-plane (or omega-plane) as the parameter lambda is varied. Near the crossover, the characteristic modulation wave-vector KR on the variable modulation length "phase" is related to that on the fixed modulation length side, q via |KR-q|\propto|T-T*|^{nuL}. We find, in general, that nuL=1/2. In some special instances, nuL may attain other rational values. We extend this result to general problems in which the eigenvalue of an operator or a pole characterizing general response functions may attain a constant real (or imaginary) part beyond a particular threshold value, lambda*. We discuss extensions of this result to multiple other arenas. These include the ANNNI model. By extending our considerations, we comment on relations pertaining not only to the modulation lengths (or times) but also to the standard correlation lengths (or times). We introduce the notion of a Josephson timescale. We comment on the presence of "chaotic" modulations in "soft-spin" and other systems. These relate to glass type features. We discuss applications to Fermi systems - with particular application to metal to band insulator transitions, change of Fermi surface topology, divergent effective masses, Dirac systems, and topological insulators. Both regular periodic and glassy (and spatially chaotic behavior) may be found in strongly correlated electronic systems.
