The transverse-field Ising model on the Sierpinski fractal, which is characterized by the fractal dimension $log_2^{~} 3 approx 1.585$, is studied by a tensor-network method, the Higher-Order Tensor Renormalization Group. We analyze the ground-state energy and the spontaneous magnetization in the thermodynamic limit. The system exhibits the second-order phase transition at the critical transverse field $h_{rm c}^{~} = 1.865$. The critical exponents $beta approx 0.198$ and $delta approx 8.7$ are obtained. Complementary to the tensor-network method, we make use of the real-space renormalization group and improved mean-field approximations for comparison.

One of the challenging problems in the condensed matter physics is to understand the quantum many-body systems, especially, their physical mechanisms behind. Since there are only a few complete analytical solutions of these systems, several numerical simulation methods have been proposed in recent years. Amongst all of them, the Tensor Network algorithms have become increasingly popular in recent years, especially for their adaptability to simulate strongly correlated systems. The current work focuses on the generalization of such Tensor-Network-based algorithms, which are sufficiently robust to describe critical phenomena and phase transitions of multistate spin Hamiltonians in the thermodynamic limit. We have chosen two algorithms: the Corner Transfer Matrix Renormalization Group and the Higher-Order Tensor Renormalization Group. This work, based on tensor-network analysis, opens doors for the understanding of phase transition and entanglement of the interacting systems on the non-Euclidean geometries. We focus on three main topics: A new thermodynamic model of social influence, free energy is analyzed to classify the phase transitions on an infinite set of the negatively curved geometries where a relation between the free energy and the Gaussian radius of the curvature is conjectured, a unique tensor-based algorithm is proposed to study the phase transition on fractal structures.

Phase transition of the Ising model is investigated on a planar lattice that has a fractal structure. On the lattice, the number of bonds that cross the border of a finite area is doubled when the linear size of the area is extended by a factor of four. The free energy and the spontaneous magnetization of the system are obtained by means of the higher-order tensor renormalization group method. The system exhibits the order-disorder phase transition, where the critical indices are different from that of the square-lattice Ising model. An exponential decay is observed in the density matrix spectrum even at the critical point. It is possible to interpret that the system is less entangled because of the fractal geometry.
We generalize a tensor-network algorithm to study thermodynamic properties of self-similar spin lattices constructed on a square-lattice frame with two types of couplings, $J_{1}^{}$ and $J_{2}^{}$, chosen to transform a regular square lattice ($J_{1}^{} = J_{2}^{}$) onto a fractal lattice if decreasing $J_{2}^{}$ to zero (the fractal fully reconstructs when $J_{2}^{} = 0$). We modified the Higher-Order Tensor Renormalization Group (HOTRG) algorithm for this purpose. Single-site measurements are performed by means of so-called impurity tensors. So far, only a single local tensor and uniform extension-contraction relations have been considered in HOTRG. We introduce ten independent local tensors, each being extended and contracted by fifteen different recursion relations. We applied the Ising model to the $J_{1}^{}-J_{2}^{}$ planar fractal whose Hausdorff dimension at $J_{2}^{} = 0$ is $d^{(H)} = ln 12 / ln 4 approx 1.792$. The generalized tensor-network algorithm is applicable to a wide range of fractal patterns and is suitable for models without translational invariance.
Phase transition of the two- and three-state quantum Potts models on the Sierpinski pyramid are studied by means of a tensor network framework, the higher-order tensor renormalization group method. Critical values of the transverse magnetic field and the magnetic exponent $beta$ are evaluated. Despite the fact that the Hausdorff dimension of the Sierpinski pyramid is exactly two $( = log_2^{~} 4)$, the obtained critical properties show that the effective dimension is lower than two.
We demonstrate that with appropriate quantum correlation function, a real-space network model can be constructed to study the phase transitions in quantum systems. For the three-dimensional bosonic system, the single-particle density matrix is adopted to construct the adjacency matrix. We show that the Bose-Einstein condensate transition can be interpreted as the transition into a small-world network, which is accurately captured by the small-world coefficient. For the one-dimensional disordered system, using the electron diffusion operator to build the adjacency matrix, we find that the Anderson localized states create many weakly-linked subgraphs, which significantly reduces the clustering coefficient and lengthens the shortest path. We show that the crossover from delocalized to localized regimes as a function of the disorder strength can be identified as the loss of global connection, which is revealed by the small-world coefficient as well as other independent measures like the robustness, the efficiency, and the algebraic connectivity. Our results suggest that the quantum phase transitions can be visualized in real space and characterized by the network analysis with suitable choices of quantum correlation functions.
