Transition from a Dirac spin liquid to an antiferromagnet: Monopoles in a QED3 -Gross-Neveu theory

Abstract: We study the quantum phase transition from a Dirac spin liquid to an antiferromagnet driven by condensing monopoles with spin quantum numbers. We describe the transition in field theory by tuning a fermion interaction to condense a spin-Hall mass, which in turn allows the appropriate monopole operators to proliferate and confine the fermions. We compute various critical exponents at the quantum critical point (QCP), including the scaling dimensions of monopole operators by using the state-operator corresponden… Show more

“…Looking forward, better algorithm in QMC simulations would certainly be desirable to access larger system sizes and lower temperatures. In particular, the critical properties of the U1D-VBS transition, that of the QED 3 -GN types, have already been discussed in the high-order perturbative RG calculations [42][43][44][45], but the system sizes in this work is too small to extract accurate values of the critical exponents. Further developments, in terms of algorithm improvement and more focus close to the QED 3 -GN critical points, are on-going.…”

“…The gapless excitation close to (π, 0) are the critical fluctuations associated with the QED 3 -GN transition. With larger system sizes and lower temperature in the future QMC studies, one will be able to measure the anomalous dimension exponent η from the momentum and frequency dependence of such critical fluctuation, and could compare with the predictions of QED 3 -GN transitions from the recent perturbative RG calculations [42][43][44][45].…”

“…So far, most computations focussed on the prediction for the scaling dimension of the lightest charged operator. This has been verified in Monte-Carlo simulations of the O(2) [55] and O(4) [56] model and perturbatively for Monopole operators [59,60,61,62,63], to order O(N 0 ) in the CP N model [57] and at leading order in the number of flavors in QED 3 and the gauged Gross-Neveu model [58]. Relatedly, large charge states have been studied in AdS/CFT in the context of holographic superconductors [64,65,66].…”

“…The continuous confined transitions from U1D to AFM or VBS we found should be described by QED 3 -Gross-Neveu O (2) or O(3) universality, depending on the symmetry group that the fermion bilinears break in the confined phase, and further carefully study of the critical properties of these transitions via QMC simulations and analytical calculations is certainly worthwhile [93]. Recently perturbative renormalization group calculations to higher orders have been carried out in attempt to accquire the critical properties of the deconfinement to confinement transition in form of QED 3 -Gross-Neveu universality classes [120][121][122][123][124][125] and to address the relevance or irrelevance of the monopole operators to the stability of the U1D phase [126][127][128], show substantial interests and great ongoing efforts along this direction.…”
