Quantum Ising Phases and Transitions in Transverse Ising Models

by Bikas K. Chakrabarti, Jun-Ichi Inoue, Sei Suzuki

Quantum phase transitions, driven by quantum fluctuations, exhibit intriguing features offering the possibility of potentially new applications, e.g. in quantum information sciences. Major advances have been made in both theoretical and experimental investigations of the nature and behavior of quantum phases and transitions in cooperatively interacting many-body quantum systems.

For modeling purposes, most of the current innovative and...
