Magnetic field-induced transition in a quantum magnet described by the Quantum Dimer Model
A. Ralko, F. Becca, D. Poilblanc
The effect of a magnetic field on a gapped quantum magnet is described within the framework of the Quantum Dimer Model. A minimal model describing the proliferation of itinerant sp…

Crystallization of the resonating valence bond liquid as vortex condensation
Arnaud Ralko, Michel Ferrero, Federico Becca +2
We show that the liquid-to-crystal quantum phase transition in the Rokhsar--Kivelson dimer model on the two-dimensional triangular lattice occurs as a condensation of vortex-like e…

Phase separation and flux quantization in the doped quantum dimer model on the square and triangular lattices
A. Ralko, F. Mila, D. Poilblanc
The doped two-dimensional quantum dimer model is investigated by numerical techniques on the square and triangular lattices, with significantly different results. On the square lat…
