Shape of cross-over between mean-field and asymptotic critical behavior three-dimensional Ising lattice

1999

Abstract Recent numerical studies of the susceptibility of the three-dimensional Ising model with various interaction ranges have been analyzed with a cross-over model based on renormalization-group matching theory. It is shown that the model yields an accurate description of the cross-over function for the susceptibility.

Explicitly correlated coupled-cluster theory using cusp conditions. I. Perturbation analysis of coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD-F12)

2010

Geminal functions based on Slater-type correlation factors and fixed expansion coefficients, determined by cusp conditions, have in recent years been forwarded as an efficient and numerically stable method for introducing explicit electron correlation into coupled-cluster theory. In this work, we analyze the equations of explicitly correlated coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD-F12) theory and introduce an ordering scheme based on perturbation theory which can be used to characterize and understand the various approximations found in the literature. Numerical results for a test set of 29 molecules support our analysis and give additional insight. In particular, our results help ration…

Ising Spins on 3D Random Lattices

1999

We perform single-cluster Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model on three-dimensional Poissonian random lattices of Voronoi/Delaunay type with up to 128 000 sites. For each lattice size quenched averages are computed over 96 realizations. From a finite-size scaling analysis we obtain strong evidence that the critical exponents coincide with those on regular cubic lattices.

Proposal of a Computational Approach for Simulating Thermal Bosonic Fields in Phase Space

2019

When a quantum field is in contact with a thermal bath, the vacuum state of the field may be generalized to a thermal vacuum state, which takes into account the thermal noise. In thermo field dynamics, this is realized by doubling the dimensionality of the Fock space of the system. Interestingly, the representation of thermal noise by means of an augmented space is also found in a distinctly different approach based on the Wigner transform of both the field operators and density matrix, which we pursue here. Specifically, the thermal noise is introduced by augmenting the classical-like Wigner phase space by means of Nos&eacute

Limits in the characteristic function description of non-Lindblad-type open quantum systems

2005

In this paper I investigate the usability of the characteristic functions for the description of the dynamics of open quantum systems focussing on non-Lindblad-type master equations. I consider, as an example, a non-Markovian generalized master equation containing a memory kernel which may lead to nonphysical time evolutions characterized by negative values of the density matrix diagonal elements [S.M. Barnett and S. Stenholm, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 64}, 033808 (2001)]. The main result of the paper is to demonstrate that there exist situations in which the symmetrically ordered characteristic function is perfectly well defined while the corresponding density matrix loses positivity. Therefore no…

Dynamical Ising-like model for the two-step spin-crossover systems

2003

In order to reproduce the two-step relaxation observed experimentally in spin-crossover systems, we investigate analytically the static and the dynamic properties of a two-sublattice Ising-like Hamiltonian. The formalism is based on a stochastic master equation approach. It is solved in the mean-field approximation, and yields two coupled differential equations that correspond to the HS fractions of the sublattices A and B. Virginie.Niel@uv.es ; Jose.A.Real@uv.es

Dynamic heterogeneities in the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of simple spherical spin models.

2003

The response of spherical two-spin interaction models, the spherical ferromagnet (s-FM) and the spherical Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (s-SK) model, is calculated for the protocol of the so-called nonresonant hole burning experiment (NHB) for temperatures below the respective critical temperatures. It is shown that it is possible to select dynamic features in the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of both models, one of the hallmarks of dynamic heterogeneities. The behavior of the s-SK model and the s-FM in three dimensions is very similar, showing dynamic heterogeneities in the long time behavior, i.e. in the aging regime. The appearence of dynamic heterogeneities in the s-SK model explicitly demonstr…

Heavy-tail properties of relaxation time distributions underlying the Havriliak–Negami and the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts relaxation patterns

2007

Abstract A detailed discussion of asymptotic properties of the Havriliak–Negami and the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts relaxation time distributions is presented. The heavy-tail property of the Havriliak–Negami relaxation time distribution, leading to the infinite mean relaxation time, is discussed. In contrast, the existence of the finite mean relaxation time for the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watts response is shown. The discussion of the Cole–Davidson and the Cole–Cole cases is also included. Using the Tauberian theorems we show that these properties are determined directly by the asymptotic behavior of the considered empirical functions.

Continuous variable quantum teleportation with non-Gaussian resources

2007

We investigate continuous variable quantum teleportation using non-Gaussian states of the radiation field as entangled resources. We compare the performance of different classes of degaussified resources, including two-mode photon-added and two-mode photon-subtracted squeezed states. We then introduce a class of two-mode squeezed Bell-like states with one-parameter dependence for optimization. These states interpolate between and include as subcases different classes of degaussified resources. We show that optimized squeezed Bell-like resources yield a remarkable improvement in the fidelity of teleportation both for coherent and nonclassical input states. The investigation reveals that the …
