Fidelity susceptibility and general quench near an anisotropic quantum critical point

Abstract

We study the scaling behavior of fidelity susceptibility density $({\chi }_{\mathrm{f}})$ at or close to an anisotropic quantum critical point characterized by two different correlation length exponents ${\nu }_{||}$ and ${\nu }_{\perp }$ along parallel and perpendicular spatial directions, respectively. Our studies show that the response of the system due to a small change in the Hamiltonian near an anisotropic quantum critical point is different from that seen near an isotropic quantum critical point. In particular, for a finite system with linear dimension $L_{||}$ ($L_{\perp }$) in the parallel (perpendicular) directions, the maximum value of ${\chi }_{\mathrm{f}}$ is found to increases in a power-law fashion with $L_{||}$ for small $L_{||}$, with an exponent depending on both ${\nu }_{||}$ and ${\nu }_{\perp }$ and eventually crosses over to a scaling with $L_{\perp }$ for $L_{||}^{1/{\nu }_{||}}\gtrsim L_{\perp }^{1/{\nu }_{\perp }}$. We also propose scaling relations of heat density and defect density generated following a quench starting from an anisotropic quantum critical point and connect them to a generalized fidelity susceptibility. These predictions are verified exactly both analytically and numerically taking the example of a Hamiltonian showing a semi-Dirac band-crossing point.
