Evidence for Deconfined Magnetic Order in the Kitaev- Model

Jiucai Wang, Chuan Chen

We investigate the Kitaev- honeycomb model using variational Monte Carlo calculations combined with a vison-quasiparticle analysis of the parent Kitaev spin liquid (KSL). We p…

Multinode quantum spin liquids in extended Kitaev honeycomb models: the view from variational Monte Carlo

Jiucai Wang, B. Normand, Zheng-Xin Liu

We discuss the discovery by variational Monte Carlo (VMC) methods of a series of multinode quantum spin liquids (QSLs) in extended Kitaev models on the honeycomb lattice. Like the…

Pair-density-wave phase of strongly interacting electrons on the triangular lattice: A variational Monte Carlo study

Jiucai Wang, Wen Sun, Hao-Xin Wang +3

A robust theory of the mechanism of pair density wave (PDW) superconductivity (i.e. where Cooper pairs have nonzero center of mass momentum) remains elusive. Here we explore the tr…
