钉扎有序:蜂窝格子上哈伯德模型的量子临界性质

Pinning the order: the nature of quantum criticality in the Hubbard model on honeycomb lattice

Fakher F. Assaad, Igor F. Herbut

摘要:

在数值模拟中,通常通过计算适当的局部序参量的两点关联函数来检测对称性自发破缺。然而,这种方法计算局部序参量的平方,因此当它是{ \it small}时,需要非常大的系统尺寸和高精度才能获得可靠的结果。或者,我们可以通过引入局部对称破缺场来钉扎有序,然后测量离钉扎中心无限远的诱导局部序参量。本文在投影辅助场量子Monte Carlo算法的范围内,对蜂窝晶格上的哈伯德模型进行了详细的测试。随着我们的分辨率的提高,我们发现了一个直接的和连续的量子相变之间的半金属和绝缘的反铁磁态的相互作用的增加。以Hubbard $U$为单位的单粒子间隙跟踪交错磁化。通过有限尺寸标度得到了良好的数据崩溃,临界指数的值符合Gross-Neveu普适类的过渡。

英文摘要:

In numerical simulations, spontaneously broken symmetry is often detected by computing two-point correlation functions of the appropriate local order parameter. This approach, however, computes the square of the local order parameter, and so when it is {\it small}, very large system sizes at high precisions are required to obtain reliable results. Alternatively, one can pin the order by introducing a local symmetry breaking field, and then measure the induced local order parameter infinitely far from the pinning center. The method is tested here at length for the Hubbard model on honeycomb lattice, within the realm of the projective auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. With our enhanced resolution we find a direct and continuous quantum phase transition between the semi-metallic and the insulating antiferromagnetic states with increase of the interaction. The single particle gap in units of the Hubbard $U$ tracks the staggered magnetization. An excellent data collapse is obtained by finite size scaling, with the values of the critical exponents in accord with the Gross-Neveu universality class of the transition.
