Finite-size scaling at first-order quantum transitions when boundary conditions favor one of the two phases
Andrea Pelissetto, Davide Rossini, Ettore Vicari
We investigate scaling phenomena at first-order quantum transitions, when the boundary conditions favor one of the two phases. We show that the corresponding finite-size scaling be…
Anomalous finite-size scaling at thermal first-order transitions in systems with disordered boundary conditions
Haralambos Panagopoulos, Andrea Pelissetto, Ettore Vicari
We investigate the equilibrium and off-equilibrium behaviors of systems at thermal first-order transitions (FOTs) when the boundary conditions favor one of the two phases. As a the…
Dynamic finite-size scaling after a quench at quantum transitions
Andrea Pelissetto, Davide Rossini, Ettore Vicari
We present a general dynamic finite-size scaling theory for the quantum dynamics after an abrupt quench, at both continuous and first-order quantum transitions. For continuous tran…
