Tensor-network study of the ground state of maple-leaf Heisenberg antiferromagnet

Samuel Nyckees, Pratyay Ghosh, Frédéric Mila

We study the quantum phase diagram of the spin- nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model on the maple-leaf lattice using infinite projected entangled pair states (iPEPS) combined wit…

Symmetry breaking and competing valence bond states in the star lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet

Pratyay Ghosh, Jan Koziol, Samuel Nyckees +2

We investigate the ground state phase diagram of the spin- antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the star lattice using infinite projected entangled pair states (iPEPS) and hi…

Topological Devil's staircase in a constrained kagome Ising antiferromagnet

Afonso Rufino, Samuel Nyckees, Jeanne Colbois +1

We show that the constrained Ising model on the kagome lattice with infinite first and third neighbor couplings undergoes an infinite series of thermal first-order transitions at w…

Weakly first-order melting of the 1/3 plateau in the Shastry-Sutherland model

Samuel Nyckees, Philippe Corboz, Frédéric Mila

We investigate the thermal properties of the 1/3 plateau in the Shastry-Sutherland model with infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS) by performing the imaginary time evol…

Critical line of the triangular Ising antiferromagnet in a field from a -symmetric corner transfer matrix algorithm

Samuel Nyckees, Afonso Rufino, Frédéric Mila +1

The corner transfer matrix renormalization group (CTMRG) algorithm has been extensively used to investigate both classical and quantum two-dimensional (2D) lattice models. The conv…

Tensor network investigation of the hard-square model

Samuel Nyckees, Frédéric Mila

Using the corner-transfer matrix renormalization group to contract the tensor network that describes its partition function, we investigate the nature of the phase transitions of t…

Commensurate-incommensurate transition in the chiral Ashkin-Teller model

Samuel Nyckees, Frédéric Mila

We investigate the classical chiral Ashkin-Teller model on a square lattice with the corner transfer matrix renormalisation group (CTMRG) algorithm. We show that the melting of the…

Identifying the Huse-Fisher universality class of the three-state chiral Potts model

Samuel Nyckees, Jeanne Colbois, Frédéric Mila

Using the corner-transfer matrix renormalization group approach, we revisit the three-state chiral Potts model on the square lattice, a model proposed in the eighties to describe c…
