Revealing divergent length scales using quantum Fisher information in the Kitaev honeycomb model

Abstract

We compute the quantum Fisher information (QFI) associated with two different local operators in the Kitaev honeycomb model, and find divergent behaviour in the second derivatives of these quantities with respect to the driving parameter at the quantum phase transition between the gapped and gapless phases for both fully anti-ferromagnetic and fully ferromagnetic exchange couplings. The QFI associated with a local magnetization operator behaves differently from that associated with a local bond operator depending on whether the critical point is approached from the gapped or gapless side. We show how the behaviour of the second derivative of the QFI at the critical point can be understood in terms of diverging length scales in the correlators of the local generators.
