In this paper the elementary moves of the BFACF-algorithm for lattice polygons are generalised to elementary moves of BFACF-style algorithms for lattice polygons in the body-centred (BCC) and face-centred (FCC) cubic lattices. We prove that the ergodicity classes of these new elementary moves coincide with the knot types of unrooted polygons in the BCC and FCC lattices and so expand a similar result for the cubic lattice. Implementations of these algorithms for knotted polygons using the GAS algorithm produce estimates of the minimal length of knotted polygons in the BCC and FCC lattices.

It is often computationally advantageous to model space as a discrete set of points forming a lattice grid. This technique is particularly useful for computationally difficult problems such as quantum many-body systems. For reasons of simplicity and familiarity, nearly all quantum many-body calculations have been performed on simple cubic lattices. Since the removal of lattice artifacts is often an important concern, it would be useful to perform calculations using more than one lattice geometry. In this work we show how to perform quantum many-body calculations using auxiliary-field Monte Carlo simulations on a three-dimensional body-centered cubic (BCC) lattice. As a benchmark test we compute the ground state energy of 33 spin-up and 33 spin-down fermions in the unitary limit, which is an idealized limit where the interaction range is zero and scattering length is infinite. As a fraction of the free Fermi gas energy $E_{rm FG}$, we find that the ground state energy is $E_0/E_{rm FG}= 0.369(2), 0.371(2),$ using two different definitions of the finite-system energy ratio. This is in excellent agreement with recent results obtained on a cubic lattice cite{He:2019ipt}. We find that the computational effort and performance on a BCC lattice is approximately the same as that for a cubic lattice with the same number of lattice points. We discuss how the lattice simulations with different geometries can be used to constrain the size lattice artifacts in simulations of continuum quantum many-body systems.

Recent results for the Ising model with first ($J_1$) and second ($J_2$) neighbour interactions on the body-centered cubic (bcc) lattice suggest that this model can host signatures of strong frustration, including Schottky anomalies and residual entr opy, as well as, a spin-liquid-like phase [E. Jurv{c}iv{s}inova and M. Jurv{c}iv{s}in, Phys. Rev. B, 101 214443 (2020)]. Motivated by these findings, we investigate phase transitions and thermodynamics of this model using a cluster mean-field approach. In this lattice, tuning $g=J_2/J_1$ leads to a ground-state transition between antiferromagnetic (AF) and superantiferromagnetic (SAF) phases at the frustration maximum $g=2/3$. Although the ordering temperature is reduced as $g to 2/3$, our findings suggest the absence of any Schottky anomaly and residual entropy, in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. We also find a direct transition between AF and SAF phases, ruling out the presence of the spin-liquid-like state. Furthermore, the cluster mean-field outcomes support a scenario with only continuous phase transitions between the paramagnetic state and the low-temperature long-range orders. Therefore, our results indicate the absence of strong frustration effects in the thermodynamics and in the nature of phase transitions, which can be ascribed to the higher dimensionality of the bcc lattice.
An implementation of BFACF-style algorithms on knotted polygons in the simple cubic, face centered cubic and body centered cubic lattice is used to estimate the statistics and writhe of minimal length knotted polygons in each of the lattices. Data ar e collected and analysed on minimal length knotted polygons, their entropy, and their lattice curvature and writhe.

By means of ab initio calculations within the density functional theory, we have found that B80 fullerenes can condense to form stable face-centered-cubic fcc solids. It is shown that when forming a crystal, B80 cages are geometrically distorted, the Ih symmetry is lowered to Th, and four boron-boron chemical bonds are formed between every two nearest neighbor B80 cages. The cohesive energy of B80 fcc solid is 0.23 eV/atom with respect to the isolated B80 fullerene. The calculated electronic structure reveals that the fcc B80 solid is a metal. The predicted solid phase would constitute a form of pure boron and might have diverse implications. In addition, a simple electron counting rule is proposed, which could explain the stability of B80 fullerene and the recently predicted stable boron sheet.
We discuss the role of quantum fluctuations in Heisenberg antiferromagnets on face-centered cubic lattice with small dipolar interaction in which the next-nearest-neighbor exchange coupling dominates over the nearest-neighbor one. It is well known th at a collinear magnetic structure which contains (111) ferromagnetic planes arranged antiferromagnetically along one of the space diagonals of the cube is stabilized in this model via order-by-disorder mechanism. On the mean-field level, the dipolar interaction forces spins to lie within (111) planes. By considering 1/S - corrections to the ground state energy, we demonstrate that quantum fluctuations lead to an anisotropy within (111) planes favoring three equivalent directions for the staggered magnetization (e.g., $[11overline{2}]$, $[1overline{2}1]$, and $[overline{2}11]$ directions for (111) plane). Such in-plane anisotropy was obtained experimentally in related materials MnO, $alpha$-MnS, $alpha$-MnSe, EuTe, and EuSe. We find that the order-by-disorder mechanism can contribute significantly to the value of the in-plane anisotropy in EuTe. Magnon spectrum is also derived in the first order in 1/S.
