Nanostructure Investigations of Nonlinear Differential Conductance in NdNiO Thin Films

Will J. Hardy, Heng Ji, Evgeny Mikheev +2

Transport measurements on thin films of NdNiO reveal a crossover to a regime of pronounced nonlinear conduction below the well-known metal-insulator transition temperature. The…

Ising-nematic order in the bilinear-biquadratic model for the iron pnictides

Patricia Bilbao Ergueta, Andriy H. Nevidomskyy

Motivated by the recent inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements in the iron pnictides which show a strong anisotropy of spin excitations in directions perpendicular and par…

Non-Fermi Liquid Behavior Close to a Quantum Critical Point in a Ferromagnetic State without Local Moments

E. Svanidze, L. Liu, B. Frandsen +12

A quantum critical point (QCP) occurs upon chemical doping of the weak itinerant ferromagnet Sc_{3.1}In. Remarkable for a system with no local moments, the QCP is accompanied by no…

Thermally Driven Analog of the Barkhausen Effect at the Metal-Insulator Transition in Vanadium Dioxide

Benjamin Huber-Rodriguez, Siu Yi Kwang, Will J. Hardy +4

The physics of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in vanadium dioxide remains a subject of intense interest. Because of the complicating effects of elastic strain on the phase tr…

Composite fermion-boson mapping for fermionic lattice models

Jinmo Zhao, Carlos A. Jimenez-Hoyos, Gustavo E. Scuseria +4

We present a mapping of elementary fermion operators onto a quadratic form of composite fermionic and bosonic operators. The mapping is an exact isomorphism as long as the physical…

Novel Itinerant Antiferromagnet TiAu

E. Svanidze, Jiakui K. Wang, T. Besara +10

Itinerant and local moment magnetism have substantively different origins, and require distinct theoretical treatment. A unified theory of magnetism has long been sought after, and…

Lie Algebraic Similarity Transformed Hamiltonians for Lattice Model Systems

Jacob M. Wahlen-Strothman, Carlos A. Jimenez-Hoyos, Thomas M. Henderson +1

We present a class of Lie algebraic similarity transformations generated by exponentials of two-body on-site hermitian operators whose Hausdorff series can be summed exactly withou…

Heavy Fermion Quantum Criticality and Destruction of the Kondo Effect in a Nickel Oxypnictide

Yongkang Luo, Leonid Pourovskii, S. E. Rowley +8

A quantum critical point arises at a continuous transformation between distinct phases of matter at zero temperature. Studies in antiferromagnetic heavy fermion materials have reve…

Variational description of the ground state of the repulsive two-dimensional Hubbard model in terms of nonorthogonal symmetry-projected Slater determinants

R. Rodríguez-Guzmán, Carlos A. Jiménez-Hoyos, Gustavo E. Scuseria

The few determinant (FED) methodology, introduced in our previous works for 1D lattices, is here adapted for the repulsive two-dimensional Hubbard model at half-filling and with fi…

Orbital Nematic Order and Interplay with Magnetism in the Two-Orbital Hubbard Model

Zhentao Wang, Andriy H. Nevidomskyy

Motivated by the recent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on FeSe and iron pnictide families of iron-based superconductors, we have studied the orbital nematic orde…

Magnetic and Ising quantum phase transitions in a model for isoelectronically tuned iron pnictides

Jianda Wu, Qimiao Si, Elihu Abrahams

Considerations of the bad-metal behavior led to an early proposal for a quantum critical point under a P for As doping in the iron pnictides, which has since been experimentally ob…

Frustration and Multicriticality in the Antiferromagnetic Spin-1 Chain

J. H. Pixley, Aditya Shashi, Andriy H. Nevidomskyy

We study the spin Heisenberg chain, with nearest neighbor, next nearest neighbor () and biquadratic () interactions using a combination of the density matrix renormaliz…

Finite temperature spin dynamics in a perturbed quantum critical Ising chain with an symmetry

Jianda Wu, Márton Kormos, Qimiao Si

A spectrum exhibiting symmetry is expected to arise when a small longitudinal field is introduced in the transverse-field Ising chain at its quantum critical point. Evidence…
