Energy transport in Z3 chiral clock model

Abstract

We characterize the energy transport in a one dimensional ${\mathbb{Z}}_3$ chiral clock model. The model generalizes the ${\mathbb{Z}}_2$ symmetric transverse field Ising model (TFIM). The model is parametrized by a chirality parameter $\theta$, in addition to $f$ and $J$ which are analogous to the transverse field and the nearest neighbour spin coupling in the TFIM. Unlike the well studied TFIM and XYZ models, does not transform to a fermionic system. We use a matrix product states implementation of the Lindblad master equation to obtain the non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) in systems of sizes up to $48$. We present the estimated NESS current and its scaling exponent $\gamma$ as a function of $\theta$ at different $f/J$. The estimated $\gamma (f/J,\theta )$ point to a ballistic energy transport along a line of integrable points $f=J\cos 3\theta$ in the parameter space; all other points deviate from ballistic transport. Analysis of finite size effects within the available system sizes suggest a diffusive behavior away from the integrable points.
