We study the ground state energy E_G(n) of N classical n-vector spins with the hamiltonian H = - sum_{i>j} J_ij S_i.S_j where S_i and S_j are n-vectors and the coupling constants J_ij are arbitrary. We prove that E_G(n) is independent of n for all n > n_{max}(N) = floor((sqrt(8N+1)-1) / 2) . We show that this bound is the best possible. We also derive an upper bound for E_G(m) in terms of E_G(n), for m<n. We obtain an upper bound on the frustration in the system, as measured by F(n), which is defined to be (sum_{i>j} |J_ij| + E_G(n)) / (sum_{i>j} |J_ij|). We describe a procedure for constructing a set of J_ijs such that an arbitrary given state, {S_i}, is the ground state.

We construct clusters of classical Heisenberg spins with two-spin $vec{S}_i.vec{S}_j$-type interactions for which the ground state manifold consists of disconnected pieces. We extend the construction to lattices and couplings for which the ground state manifold splits into an exponentially large number of disconnected pieces at a sharp point as the interaction strengths are varied with respect to each other. In one such lattice we construct, the number of disconnected pieces in the ground state manifold can be counted exactly.
We revisit the effects of short-ranged random quenched disorder on the universal scaling properties of the classical $N$-vector model with cubic anisotropy. We set up the nonconserved relaxational dynamics of the model, and study the universal dynamic scaling near the second order phase transition. We extract the critical exponents and the dynamic exponent in a one-loop dynamic renormalisation group calculation with short-ranged isotropic disorder. We show that the dynamics near a critical point is generically slower when the quenched disorder is relevant than when it is not, independent of whether the pure model is isotropic or cubic anisotropic. We demonstrate the surprising thresholdless instability of the associated universality class due to perturbations from rotational invariance breaking quenched disorder-order parameter coupling, indicating breakdown of dynamic scaling. We speculate that this may imply a novel first order transition in the model, induced by a symmetry-breaking disorder.
Typical of modern quantum technologies employing nanomechanical oscillators is to demand few mechanical quantum excitations, for instance, to prolong coherence times of a particular task or, to engineer a specific non-classical state. For this reason, we devoted the present work to exhibit how to bring an initial thermalized nanomechanical oscillator near to its ground state. Particularly, we focus on extending the novel results of D. D. B. Rao textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. textbf{117}, 077203 (2016), where a mechanical object can be heated up, squeezed, or cooled down near to its ground state through conditioned single-spin measurements. In our work, we study a similar iterative spin-mechanical system when $N$ spins interact with the mechanical oscillator. Here, we have also found that the postselection procedure acts as a discarding process, i.e., we steer the mechanics to the ground state by dynamically filtering its vibrational modes. We show that when considering symmetric collective spin postselection, the inclusion of $N$ spins into the quantum dynamics results highly beneficial. In particular, decreasing the total number of iterations to achieve the ground-state, with a success rate of probability comparable with the one obtained from the single-spin case.
We consider the calculation of ground-state expectation values for the non-Hermitian Z(N) spin chain described by free parafermions. For N=2 the model reduces to the quantum Ising chain in a transverse field with open boundary conditions. Use is made of the Hellmann-Feynman theorem to obtain exact results for particular single site and nearest-neighbour ground-state expectation values for general N which are valid for sites deep inside the chain. These results are tested numerically for N=3, along with how they change as a function of distance from the boundary.
When noninteracting fermions are confined in a $D$-dimensional region of volume $mathrm{O}(L^D)$ and subjected to a continuous (or piecewise continuous) potential $V$ which decays sufficiently fast with distance, in the thermodynamic limit, the ground state energy of the system does not depend on $V$. Here, we discuss this theorem from several perspectives and derive a proof for radially symmetric potentials valid in $D$ dimensions. We find that this universality property holds under a quite mild condition on $V$, with or without bounded states, and extends to thermal states. Moreover, it leads to an interesting analogy between Andersons orthogonality catastrophe and first-order quantum phase transitions.
