Kitaev model and dimer coverings on the honeycomb lattice
M. Kamfor, S. Dusuel, J. Vidal +1
We consider an extension of the Kitaev honeycomb model based on arbitrary dimer coverings satisfying matching rules. We focus on three different dimer coverings having the smallest…
Perturbative approach to an exactly solved problem: the Kitaev honeycomb model
J. Vidal, K. P. Schmidt, S. Dusuel
We analyze the gapped phase of the Kitaev honeycomb model perturbatively in the isolated-dimer limit. Our analysis is based on the continuous unitary transformations method which a…
Equivalence of critical scaling laws for many-body entanglement in the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model
R. Orus, S. Dusuel, J. Vidal
We establish a relation between several entanglement properties in the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model, which is a system of mutually interacting spins embedded in a magnetic field. We…
Creation and Manipulation of Anyons in the Kitaev Model
S. Dusuel, K. P. Schmidt, J. Vidal
We analyze the effect of local spin operators in the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice. We show, in perturbation around the isolated-dimer limit, that they create Abelian anyon…
Comment on "Anyonic braiding in optical lattices"
J. Vidal, S. Dusuel, K. P. Schmidt
We point out some major technical and conceptual mistakes which invalidate the conclusion drawn in "Anyonic braiding in optical lattices" by C. Zhang, V. W. Scarola, S. Tewari, and…
Emergent Fermions and Anyons in the Kitaev Model
K. P. Schmidt, S. Dusuel, J. Vidal
We study the gapped phase of the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice using perturbative continuous unitary transformations. The effective low-energy Hamiltonian is found to be an…
