Zero-temperature Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in a two-dimensional quantum system
Claudio Castelnovo, Claudio Chamon, Christopher Mudry +2
We construct a local interacting quantum dimer model on the square lattice, whose zero-temperature phase diagram is characterized by a line of critical points separating two ordere…
High-Temperature Criticality in Strongly Constrained Quantum Systems
Claudio Castelnovo, Claudio Chamon, Christopher Mudry +2
The exotic nature of many strongly correlated materials at reasonably high temperatures, for instance cuprate superconductors in their normal state, has lead to the suggestion that…
From quantum mechanics to classical statistical physics: generalized Rokhsar-Kivelson Hamiltonians and the "Stochastic Matrix Form" decomposition
Claudio Castelnovo, Claudio Chamon, Christopher Mudry +1
Quantum Hamiltonians that are fine-tuned to their so-called Rokhsar-Kivelson (RK) points, first presented in the context of quantum dimer models, are defined by their representatio…
