摘要:

研究了无符号$S=1$正方晶格模型中Néel到四重柱状价键固体(cVBS)的量子相变.这与$S=1/2$实现原型去限制临界点的跃迁是同一种跃迁。正方形晶格$S=1/2$ Néel-VBS转变的广泛数值模拟发现与DCP方案一致,没有一阶行为的直接证据。与$S=1/2$的情况相反,在我们的量子蒙特卡罗模拟的$S=1$模型,我们提出了明确的证据,直接传统的一阶量子相变。经典的迹象表明共存的一阶过渡,包括双峰直方图和开关行为观察。与$S=1/2$情况的鲜明对比是显著的,并且是量子自旋的大小在二维晶格模型的相图中的作用的显著证明。

英文摘要:

We study the Néel to four-fold columnar valence bond solid (cVBS) quantum phase transition in a sign free $S=1$ square lattice model. This is the same kind of transition that for $S=1/2$ has been argued to realize the prototypical deconfined critical point. Extensive numerical simulations of the square lattice $S=1/2$ Néel-VBS transition have found consistency with the DCP scenario with no direct evidence for first order behavior. In contrast to the $S=1/2$ case, in our quantum Monte Carlo simulations for the $S=1$ model, we present unambiguous evidence for a direct conventional first-order quantum phase transition. Classic signs for a first order transition demonstrating co-existence including double peaked histograms and switching behavior are observed. The sharp contrast from the $S=1/2$ case is remarkable, and is a striking demonstration of the role of the size of the quantum spin in the phase diagram of two dimensional lattice models.
