Phase transition and critical properties of Ising-like spin-orbital interacting systems in 2-dimensional triangular lattice are investigated. We first show that the ground state of the system is a composite spin-orbital ferro-ordered phase. Though Landau effective field theory predicts the second-order phase transition of the composite spin-orbital order, however, the critical exponents obtained by the renormalization group approach demonstrate that the spin-orbital order-disorder transition is far from the second-order, rather, it is more close to the first-order, implying that the widely observed first-order transition in many transition-metal oxides may be intrinsic. The unusual critical behavior near the transition point is attributed to the fractionalization of the composite order parameter.

We study the effect of perpendicular single-ion anisotropy, $-As_{text{z}}^2$, on the ground-state structure and finite-temperature properties of a two-dimensional magnetic nanodot in presence of a dipolar interaction of strength $D$. By a simulated annealing Monte Carlo method, we show that in the ground state a vortex core perpendicular to the nanodot plane emerges already in the range of moderate anisotropy values above a certain threshold level. In the giant-anisotropy regime the vortex structure is superseded by a stripe domain structure with stripes of alternate domains perpendicular to the surface of the sample. We have also observed an intermediate stage between the vortex and stripe structures, with satellite regions of tilted nonzero perpendicular magnetization around the core. At finite temperatures, at small $A$, we show by Monte Carlo simulations that there is a transition from the the in-plane vortex phase to the disordered phase characterized by a peak in the specific heat and the vanishing vortex order parameter. At stronger $A$, we observe a discontinuous transition with a large latent heat from the in-plane vortex phase to perpendicular stripe ordering phase before a total disordering at higher temperatures. In the regime of perpendicular stripe domains, namely with giant $A$, there is no phase transition at finite $T$: the stripe domains are progressively disordered with increasing $T$. Finite-size effects are shown and discussed.

We study magnetic fluctuations in a system of interacting spins on a lattice at high temperatures and in the presence of a spatially varying magnetic field. Starting from a microscopic Hamiltonian we derive effective equations of motion for the spins and solve these equations self-consistently. We find that the spin fluctuations can be described by an effective diffusion equation with a diffusion coefficient which strongly depends on the ratio of the magnetic field gradient to the strength of spin-spin interactions. We also extend our studies to account for external noise and find that the relaxation times and the diffusion coefficient are mutually dependent.
Recently, generative machine-learning models have gained popularity in physics, driven by the goal of improving the efficiency of Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques and of exploring their potential in capturing experimental data distributions. Motivated by their ability to generate images that look realistic to the human eye, we here study generative adversarial networks (GANs) as tools to learn the distribution of spin configurations and to generate samples, conditioned on external tuning parameters, such as temperature. We propose ways to efficiently represent the physical states, e.g., by exploiting symmetries, and to minimize the correlations between generated samples. We present a detailed evaluation of the various modifications, using the two-dimensional XY model as an example, and find considerable improvements in our proposed implicit generative model. It is also shown that the model can reliably generate samples in the vicinity of the phase transition, even when it has not been trained in the critical region. On top of using the samples generated by the model to capture the phase transition via evaluation of observables, we show how the model itself can be employed as an unsupervised indicator of transitions, by constructing measures of the models susceptibility to changes in tuning parameters.
Contrary to the conventional wisdom in Hermitian systems, a continuous quantum phase transition between gapped phases is shown to occur without closing the energy gap $Delta$ in non-Hermitian quantum many-body systems. Here, the relevant length scale $xi simeq v_{rm LR}/Delta$ diverges because of the breakdown of the Lieb-Robinson bound on the velocity (i.e., unboundedness of $v_{rm LR}$) rather than vanishing of the energy gap $Delta$. The susceptibility to a change in the system parameter exhibits a singularity due to nonorthogonality of eigenstates. As an illustrative example, we present an exactly solvable model by generalizing Kitaevs toric-code model to a non-Hermitian regime.
We present a microscopic theory of the second order phase transition in an interacting Bose gas that allows one to describe formation of an ordered condensate phase from a disordered phase across an entire critical region continuously. We derive the exact fundamental equations for a condensate wave function and the Green functions, which are valid both inside and outside the critical region. They are reduced to the usual Gross-Pitaevskii and Beliaev-Popov equations in a low-temperature limit outside the critical region. The theory is readily extendable to other phase transitions, in particular, in the physics of condensed matter and quantum fields.
