Dynamic scaling at classical phase transitions approached through non-equilibrium quenching
Cheng-Wei Liu, Anatoli Polkovnikov, Anders W. Sandvik
We use Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate generic scaling aspects of classical phase transitions approached through a quench (or annealing) protocol where the temperature chang…
Thermal valence-bond-solid transition of quantum spins in two dimensions
Songbo Jin, Anders W. Sandvik
We study the S=1/2 Heisenberg (J) model on the two-dimensional square lattice in the presence of additional higher-order spin interactions (Q) which lead to a valence-bond-solid (V…
Finite-size scaling method for the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition
Yun-Da Hsieh, Ying-Jer Kao, A. W. Sandvik
We test an improved finite-size scaling method for reliably extracting the critical temperature of a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition. Using known sin…
Confinement and Deconfinement of Spinons in Two Dimensions
Ying Tang, Anders W. Sandvik
We use Monte Carlo methods to study spinons in two-dimensional quantum spin systems, characterizing their intrinsic size and confinement length . We confirm that spinons are…
