Emergent Symmetry at the Néel to Valence-Bond-Solid Transition

Adam Nahum, P. Serna, J. T. Chalker +2

We show numerically that the `deconfined' quantum critical point between the Néel antiferromagnet and the columnar valence-bond-solid, for a square lattice of spin-1/2s, has an eme…

Deconfined Quantum Criticality, Scaling Violations, and Classical Loop Models

Adam Nahum, J. T. Chalker, P. Serna +2

Numerical studies of the Néel to valence-bond solid phase transition in 2D quantum antiferromagnets give strong evidence for the remarkable scenario of deconfined criticality, but…

Slow light transmission in one-dimensional periodic structures

O. del Barco, M. Ortuño

We have analyzed the transmission properties of pulses through one-dimensional periodic structures in order to systematically explore the best conditions to achieve the maximum del…

Green functions of interacting systems in the strongly localized regime

A. N. Somoza, M. Ortuño, V. Gasparian +1

We have developed an approach to calculate the single-particle Green function of a one-dimensional many-body system in the strongly localized limit at zero temperature. Our approac…

Phase transitions in 3D loop models and the model

Adam Nahum, J. T. Chalker, P. Serna +2

We consider the statistical mechanics of a class of models involving close-packed loops with fugacity on three-dimensional lattices. The models exhibit phases of two types as a…

Loop models with crossings

Adam Nahum, P. Serna, A. M. Somoza +1

The universal behaviour of two-dimensional loop models can change dramatically when loops are allowed to cross. We study models with crossings both analytically and with extensive…

Quantum Coulomb gap in low dimensions

M. Pino, A. M. Somoza, M. Ortuño

We study the single-particle density of states of one-dimensional and two-dimensional quantum disordered systems with long-range interactions. We consider a interactio…

Effects of many-electron jumps in relaxation and conductivity of Coulomb glasses

J. Bergli, A. M. Somoza, ans M. Ortuno

A numerical study of the energy relaxation and conductivity of the Coulomb glass is presented. The role of many-electron transitions is studied by two complementary methods: a kine…

Spin quantum Hall effect and plateau transitions in multilayer network models

J. T. Chalker, M. Ortuño, A. M. Somoza

We study the spin quantum Hall effect and transitions between Hall plateaus in quasi two-dimensional network models consisting of several coupled layers. Systems exhibiting the spi…

Crossover from diffusive to strongly localized regime in two-dimensional systems

A. M. Somoza, J. Prior, M. Ortuno +1

We have studied the conductance distribution function of two-dimensional disordered noninteracting systems in the crossover regime between the diffusive and the localized phases. T…

Random Walks and Anderson Localisation in a Three-Dimensional Class C Network Model

M. Ortuño, A. M. Somoza, J. T. Chalker

We study the disorder-induced localisation transition in a three-dimensional network model that belongs to symmetry class C. The model represents quasiparticle dynamics in a gaples…

Fluctuations of the correlation dimension at metal-insulator transitions

E. Cuevas, M. Ortuno, V. Gasparian +1

We investigate numerically the inverse participation ratio, , of the 3D Anderson model and of the power-law random banded matrix (PRBM) model at criticality. We found that the…

Anomalously large critical regions in power-law random matrix ensembles

E. Cuevas, V. Gasparian, M. Ortuno

We investigate numerically the power-law random matrix ensembles. Wavefunctions are fractal up to a characteristic length whose logarithm diverges asymmetrically with different exp…

Non-ergodic effects in the Coulomb glass: specific heat

A. Díaz-Sánchez, A. Möbius, M. Ortuño +2

We present a numerical method for the investigation of non-ergodic effects in the Coulomb glass. For that, an almost complete set of low-energy many-particle states is obtained by…

Dielectric susceptibility of the Coulomb-glass

A. Diaz-Sanchez, M. Ortuno, M. Pollak +2

We derive a microscopic expression for the dielectric susceptibility of a Coulomb glass, which corresponds to the definition used in classical electrodynamics, the derivative o…
