Phase diagrams of S=1/2 bilayer Models of SU(2) symmetric antiferromagnets

Fan Zhang, Nisheeta Desai, Wenan Guo +1

We study the phase diagrams of models of bilayers of square lattices antiferromagnets with SU(2) Heisenberg symmetry that have 2, 4, and 6 spin exchanges. We study tw…

Competition between Neel, Haldane nematic, plaquette valence bond solid, and valence bond solid phases in SU(N) analogs of square-lattice antiferromagnets

Souvik Kundu, Nisheeta Desai, Kedar Damle

We use stochastic series expansion (SSE) quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods to study the phases and transitions displayed by a class of sign-free designer Hamiltonians for SU() a…

Deconfined pseudocriticality in a model spin-1 quantum antiferromagnet

Vikas Vijigiri, Sumiran Pujari, Nisheeta Desai

Berry phase interference arguments that underlie the theory of deconfined quantum criticality (DQC) for spin- antiferromagnets have also been invoked to allow for cont…

Notes on resummation-based quantum Monte Carlo vis-à-vis sign-problematic Heisenberg models on canonical geometrically frustrated lattices

Nisheeta Desai, Sumiran Pujari

We show here that a direct application of resummation-based quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) -- implemented recently for sign-problem-free SU(2)-symmetric Hamiltonians in the stochastic s…

Melting of three-sublattice order in triangular lattice Ising antiferromagnets: Power-law order, parafermionic multicriticality, and weakly first order transitions

G. Rakala, N. Desai, S. Shivam +1

The nature of the thermal melting process by which triangular-lattice Ising antiferromagnets lose their low-temperature ferrimagnetic three-sublattice order depends on the range of…

Resummation-based updates for Stochastic Series Expansion Quantum Monte Carlo

Nisheeta Desai, Sumiran Pujari

For spin rotational symmetric models with a positive-definite high-temperature expansion of the partition function, a stochastic sampling of the series expansion upon partial resum…

Bilayer Coulomb phase of two dimensional dimer models: Absence of power-law columnar order

Nisheeta Desai, Sumiran Pujari, K. Damle

We study the fully-packed dimer model on the bilayer square lattice with fugacity equal to () for inter-layer (intra-layer) dimers, and intra-layer interaction between n…

Duality and domain wall dynamics in a twisted Kitaev chain

C. M. Morris, Nisheeta Desai, J. Viirok +9

The Ising chain in transverse field is a paradigmatic model for a host of physical phenomena, including spontaneous symmetry breaking, topological defects, quantum criticality, and…

First order phase transitions in the square lattice "easy-plane" J-Q model

Nisheeta Desai, Ribhu K. Kaul

We study the quantum phase transition between the superfluid and valence bond solid in "easy-plane" J-Q models on the square lattice. The Hamiltonian we study is a linear combinati…

Spin- designer hamiltonians and the square lattice Haldane nematic

Nisheeta Desai, Ribhu K. Kaul

We introduce a strategy to write down lattice models of spin rotational symmetric Hamiltonians with arbitrary spin- that are Marshall positive and can be simulated efficiently u…

First-order Néel-cVBS transition in a model square lattice antiferromagnet

Julia Wildeboer, Nisheeta Desai, Jonathan D'Emidio +1

We study the Néel to four-fold columnar valence bond solid (cVBS) quantum phase transition in a sign free square lattice model. This is the same kind of transition that for $…
