Theory of deconfined pseudocriticality

R Ma, C Wang - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
It has been proposed that the deconfined criticality in (2+ 1) d—the quantum phase transition
between a Néel antiferromagnet and a valence-bond solid (VBS)—may actually be …

Note on Wess-Zumino-Witten models and quasiuniversality in dimensions

A Nahum - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We suggest the possibility that the two-dimensional SU (2) k Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW)
theory, which has global SO (4) symmetry, can be continued to 2+ ε dimensions by enlarging …

Landau-forbidden quantum criticality in Rydberg quantum simulators

JY Lee, J Ramette, MA Metlitski, V Vuletić, WW Ho… - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
The Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson theory of phase transitions precludes a continuous transition
between two phases that spontaneously break distinct symmetries. However, quantum …

Scaling of the disorder operator at deconfined quantum criticality

YC Wang, N Ma, M Cheng, ZY Meng - SciPost Physics, 2022 - scipost.org
We study scaling behavior of the disorder parameter, defined as the expectation value of a
symmetry transformation applied to a finite region, at the deconfined quantum critical point in …

Emergent self-duality in a long-range critical spin chain: From deconfined criticality to first-order transition

S Yang, Z Pan, DC Lu, XJ Yu - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Over the past few decades, tremendous efforts have been devoted to understanding self-
