量子自旋链中的无隙到无隙相变

Gapless to gapless phase transitions in quantum spin chains

Shi Feng, Gonzalo Alvarez, Nandini Trivedi

摘要:

我们研究了具有双线性-双二次(BLBQ)自旋相互作用的自旋链作为外加磁场$h$的函数。在Uimin-Lai-Sutherland(ULS)临界点,我们发现了一个由动力学结构因子$S(q,ω)$作为$h$的函数所揭示的无带隙到无带隙的转变.在$h=0$,最低能量激发的包络在{ \it两点} $q_1=2π/3$和$q_2=4π/3$变软,称为A相。随着场的增加,在每个无隙点处的谱峰分叉,总共产生{ \it四}个软模,并且结合以形成在$h_{c1}\approx 0.94$处的{ \it单}点$q=π$处软化的一组新的激发。在$h_{c1}$之后,系统进入另一个无间隙B相,直到在$h_{c2}=4$处过渡到完全极化相。我们比较了ULS模型的结果与AKLT模型作为代表的间隙Halfaldehyde阶段。我们解释了ULS模型中的无带隙到无带隙跃迁的机制,利用它的守恒电荷和自旋带图片。我们还讨论了中心电荷的BLBQ族模型受到磁场的普遍性。

英文摘要:

We investigate spin chains with bilinear-biquadratic (BLBQ) spin interactions as a function of an applied magnetic field $h$. At the Uimin-Lai-Sutherland (ULS) critical point we find a gapless to gapless transition revealed by the dynamical structure factor $S(q,ω)$ as a function of $h$. At $h=0$, the envelope of the lowest energy excitations goes soft at {\it two points} $q_1=2π/3$ and $q_2=4π/3$, dubbed the phase A. With increasing field, the spectral peaks at each of the gapless points bifurcate, making in total {\it four} soft modes, and combine to form a new set of excitations that soften at a {\it single} point $q=π$ at $h_{c1}\approx 0.94$. Beyond $h_{c1}$ the system enters another gapless B-phase until the transition at $h_{c2}=4$ to the fully polarized phase. We compare the ULS model results with those for the AKLT model as a representative of gapped Haldane phase. We explain the mechanism of the gapless to gapless transition in the ULS model using its conserved charges and a spinon band picture. We also discuss the universality of central charges of the BLBQ family of models subjected to a magnetic field.
