Non-reciprocity and geometric frustration enable many-body systems to avoid crystalline order and instead exhibit complex, liquid-like behavior. Here we show that their interplay is richer than the sum of its parts, leading to surprising structural and dynamical phenomena. In our minimal model, two copies of Ising gauge theory are non-reciprocally coupled in a way that crucially preserves a local $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. We discover that the combined Wilson loop observable of the two copies exhibits linear asymptotic scaling, with a quasiparticle-pair confinement length tuned by the strength of the non-reciprocal coupling. Key dynamical features are revealed in the behavior of individual deconfined excitations due to strong interactions induced by the non-reciprocity, leading to motion on a critical percolation cluster that follows a self-avoiding trail. Mapping from this quasiparticle dynamics onto the magnetic noise spectrum, we discover that non-reciprocity tunes topological logarithmic contributions and causes long-lived metastable states due to quasiparticle trapping. Our work opens the way for broader investigations of geometrically frustrated non-reciprocity.
We study classical $J_1$-$J_2$ models with distinct spin degrees of freedom on a honeycomb lattice. For the XY and Heisenberg spins, the system develops a spiral spin liquid (SSL) that is a thermal cooperative paramagnetic regime with spins fluctuating around the spiral contours in the momentum space, and at low temperatures supports a vector spin-chirality order despite the absence of long-range magnetic order. In a strong contrast, for the Ising moments, the low-temperature spin correlation forms a reciprocal "kagomé" structure in the momentum space that resembles the SSL behaviors and persi…
Recently, machine learning has been applied successfully for identifying phases and phase transitions of the Ising models. The continuous phase transition is characterized by spontaneous symmetry breaking, which can not be detected in general from a single spin configuration. To investigate if neural networks can extract correlations among spin snapshots, we propose a new test using the random-gauge Ising model. We show that neural networks can extract the order parameter or the energy of the random-gauge model as in the ferromagnetic case. We also discuss how and where the information of rand…
Motivated by the growing interest in self-correcting quantum memories, we study the feasibility of self-correction in classical lattice systems composed of bounded degrees of freedom with local interactions. We argue that self-correction, including a requirement of stability against external perturbation, cannot be realized in system with broken global symmetries such as the 2d Ising model, but that systems with local, i.e. gauge, symmetries have the required properties. Previous work gave a three-dimensional quantum system which realized a self-correcting classical memory. Here we show that a…
It is known that the normal three-dimensional (3D) Ising model on a cubic lattice is dual to the Wegner's 3D $Z_2$ lattice gauge theory. Here we find an unusual $Z_2$ lattice gauge theory which is dual to the 3D Ising model with not only nearest-neighbor (nn) coupling, but also next-nearest-neighbor (nnn) coupling. Our gauge theory has on each edge four $Z_2$ variables that have product $+1$, each located on a vector perpendicular to the edge. The nn coupling in the Ising model maps to the plaquette term in the gauge theory where the four variables multiplied have their vectors pointing inward…
We discuss a gauged XY model a $θ$-term on an arbitrary lattice in 1+1 dimensions, and show that the theory reduces exactly to the 2d Ising model on the dual lattice in the limit of the strong gauge coupling, provided that the topological term is defined via the Villain action. We discuss the phase diagram by comparing the strong and weak gauge coupling limits, and perform Monte Carlo simulations at intermediate couplings. We generalize the duality to higher-dimensional Ising models using higher-form U(1) gauge field analogues.
On the coupling constant bounds implying area decay of Wilson loop for Z2 lattice gauge theories with Wilson action Boltzmann factor given by bond variables described by transverse Ising model
We present a procedure for reconstructing the decision function of an artificial neural network as a simple function of the input, provided the decision function is sufficiently symmetric. In this case one can easily deduce the quantity by which the neural network classifies the input. The procedure is embedded into a pipeline of machine learning algorithms able to detect the existence of different phases of matter, to determine the position of phase transitions and to find explicit expressions of the physical quantities by which the algorithm distinguishes between phases. We assume no prior k…
Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states with long-range entanglement, conditioned on additional transformations based on measurement outcomes. Here, we demonstrate that the so-called conformal quantum critical points (CQCP) can be obtained by performing general single-site measurements in an appropriate basis on the cluster states in $d\geq2$. The equal-time correlators of the said states are described by correlation functions of certain $d$-dimensional classical models at finite temperatures and feature spatial conformal invariance. This establishes an…
