对称增强一级量子相变中格吕奈森比的发散

Divergence of the Grüneisen ratio at symmetry-enhanced first-order quantum phase transitions

Charlotte Beneke, Matthias Vojta

摘要:

Grüneisen比率的研究,即,热膨胀和比热之间的比率已经成为量子临界性背景下的有力工具,因为理论上表明,在接近连续量子相变的转变点时,Grüneisen比率显示出特征幂律发散。在这里,我们表明,Grüneisen比也发散在一个增强的一阶量子相变,虽然与平均场指数,增强的对称性意味着消失的模式间隙是有限的过渡。我们提供了明确的结果,简单的伪自旋模型,无论是有和没有戈德斯通模式的稳定阶段,并讨论的影响。

英文摘要:

Studies of the Grüneisen ratio, i.e., the ratio between thermal expansion and specific heat, have become a powerful tool in the context of quantum criticality, since it was shown theoretically that the Grüneisen ratio displays characteristic power-law divergencies upon approaching the transition point of a continuous quantum phase transition. Here we show that the Grüneisen ratio also diverges at a symmetry-enhanced first-order quantum phase transition, albeit with mean-field exponents, as the enhanced symmetry implies the vanishing of a mode gap which is finite away from the transition. We provide explicit results for simple pseudo-spin models, both with and without Goldstone modes in the stable phases, and discuss implications.
