Fractality of Hofstadter Butterfly in Specific Heat Oscillation
L. P. Yang, W. H. Xu, M. P. Qin +1
We calculate thermodynamical properties of the Hofstadter model using a recently developed quantum transfer matrix method. We find intrinsic oscillation features in specific heat t…

Quantum transfer matrix method for one-dimensional disordered electronic systems
Li-Ping Yang, Yong-Jun Wang, Wen-Hu Xu +2
We develop a novel quantum transfer matrix method to study thermodynamic properties of one-dimensional (1D) disordered electronic systems. It is shown that the partition function c…

Probing the Hofstadter butterfly with the quantum oscillation of magnetization
W. H. Xu, L. P. Yang, M. P. Qin +1
We have developed a different quantum transfer matrix method to accurately determine thermodynamic properties of the Hofstadter model. This method resolves a technical problem whic…
