A two-dimensional lattice gas model is proposed. The ground state of this model with a fixed density is neither periodic nor quasi-periodic. It also depends on system size in an irregular manner. On the other hand, it is ordered in the sense that the entropy density is zero in the thermodynamic limit. The existence of a thermodynamic transition associated with such irregularly ordered ground states is conjectured from a duality relation for a thermodynamic function. This conjecture is supported by a phenomenological argument and numerical experiments.

The stationary critical properties of the isotropic majority vote model on random lattices with quenched connectivity disorder are calculated by using Monte Carlo simulations and finite size analysis. The critical exponents $gamma$ and $beta$ are fou nd to be different from those of the Ising and majority vote on the square lattice model and the critical noise parameter is found to be $q_{c}=0.117pm0.005$.
We investigate the ground state of the irrationally frustrated Josephson junction array with controlling anisotropy parameter lambda that is the ratio of the longitudinal Josephson coupling to the transverse one. We find that the ground state has one dimensional periodicity whose reciprocal lattice vector depends on lambda and is incommensurate with the substrate lattice. Approaching the isotropic point, lambda=1 the so called hull function of the ground state exhibits analyticity breaking similar to the Aubry transition in the Frenkel-Kontorova model. We find a scaling law for the harmonic spectrum of the hull functions, which suggests the existence of a characteristic length scale diverging at the isotropic point. This critical behavior is directly connected to the jamming transition previously observed in the current-voltage characteristics by a numerical simulation. On top of the ground state there is a gapless, continuous band of metastable states, which exhibit the same critical behavior as the ground state.

The present paper considers some classical ferromagnetic lattice--gas models, consisting of particles that carry $n$--component spins ($n=2,3$) and associated with a $D$--dimensional lattice ($D=2,3$); each site can host one particle at most, thus im plicitly allowing for hard--core repulsion; the pair interaction, restricted to nearest neighbors, is ferromagnetic, and site occupation is also controlled by the chemical potential $mu$. The models had previously been investigated by Mean Field and Two--Site Cluster treatments (when D=3), as well as Grand--Canonical Monte Carlo simulation in the case $mu=0$, for both D=2 and D=3; the obtained results showed the same kind of critical behaviour as the one known for their saturated lattice counterparts, corresponding to one particle per site. Here we addressed by Grand--Canonical Monte Carlo simulation the case where the chemical potential is negative and sufficiently large in magnitude; the value $mu=-D/2$ was chosen for each of the four previously investigated counterparts, together with $mu=-3D/4$ in an additional instance. We mostly found evidence of first order transitions, both for D=2 and D=3, and quantitatively characterized their behaviour. Comparisons are also made with recent experimental results.
The spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the pyrochlore lattice is an iconic frustrated three-dimensional spin system with a rich phase diagram. Besides hosting several ordered phases, the model is debated to possess a spin-liquid ground state when only near est-neighbor antiferromagnetic interactions are present. Here, we contest this hypothesis with an extensive numerical investigation using both exact diagonalization and complementary variational techniques. Specifically, we employ a RVB-like many-variable Monte Carlo ansatz and convolutional neural network quantum states for (variational) calculations with up to $4times 4^3$ and $4 times 3^3$ spins, respectively. We demonstrate that these techniques yield consistent results, allowing for reliable extrapolations to the thermodynamic limit. Our main results are (1) the determination of the phase transition between the putative spin-liquid phase and the neighboring magnetically ordered phase and (2) a careful characterization of the ground state in terms of symmetry-breaking tendencies. We find clear indications of spontaneously broken inversion and rotational symmetry, calling the scenario of a featureless quantum spin-liquid into question. Our work showcases how many-variable variational techniques can be used to make progress in answering challenging questions about three-dimensional frustrated quantum magnets.
We compare accuracy of two prime time evolution algorithms involving Matrix Product States - tDMRG (time-dependent density matrix renormalization group) and TDVP (time-dependent variational principle). The latter is supposed to be superior within a l imited and fixed auxiliary space dimension. Surprisingly, we find that the performance of algorithms depends on the model considered. In particular, many-body localized systems as well as the crossover regions between localized and delocalized phases are better described by tDMRG, contrary to the delocalized regime where TDVP indeed outperforms tDMRG in terms of accuracy and reliability. As an example, we study many-body localization transition in a large size Heisenberg chain. We discuss drawbacks of previous estimates [Phys. Rev. B 98, 174202 (2018)] of the critical disorder strength for large systems.
