The Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transitions of the six-state clock model on the square lattice are investigated by means of the corner-transfer matrix renormalization group method. A classical analog of the entanglement entropy $S( L, T )$ is calculated for $L times L$ square system up to $L = 129$, as a function of temperature $T$. The entropy exhibits a peak at $T = T^*_{~}( L )$, where the temperature depends on both $L$ and the boundary conditions. Applying the finite-size scaling to $T^*_{~}( L )$ and assuming presence of the BKT transitions, the two distinct phase-transition temperatures are estimated to be $T_1^{~} = 0.70$ and $T_2^{~} = 0.88$. The results are in agreement with earlier studies. It should be noted that no thermodynamic functions have been used in this study.

We numerically study quenches from a fully ordered state to the ferromagnetic regime of the chiral $mathbb{Z}_3$ clock model, where the physics can be understood in terms of sparse domain walls of six flavors. As in the previously studied models, the spread of entangled domain wall pairs generated by the quench lead to a linear growth of entropy with time, upto a time $ell/2v_g$ in size-$ell$ subsystems in the bulk where $v_g$ is the maximal group velocity of domain walls. In small subsystems located in the bulk, the entropy continues to further grow towards $ln 3$, as domain walls traverse the subsystem and increment the population of the two oppositely ordered states, restoring the $mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry. The latter growth in entropy is seen also in small subsystems near an open boundary in a non-chiral clock model. In contrast to this, in the case of the chiral model, the entropy of small subsystems near an open boundary saturates. We rationalize the difference in behavior in terms of qualitatively different scattering properties of domain walls at the open boundary in the chiral model. We also present empirical results for entropy growth, correlation spread, and energies of longitudinal-field-induced bound states of domain wall pairs in the chiral model.
We accurately simulate the phase diagram and critical behavior of the $q$-state clock model on the square lattice by using the state-of-the-art loop optimization for tensor network renormalzation(loop-TNR) algorithm. The two phase transition points f or $q geq 5$ are determined with very high accuracy. Furthermore, by computing the conformal scaling dimensions, we are able to accurately determine the compactification radius $R$ of the compactified boson theories at both phase transition points. In particular, the compactification radius $R$ at high-temperature critical point is precisely the same as the predicted $R$ for Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition. Moreover, we find that the fixed point tensors at high-temperature critical point also converge(up to numerical errors) to the same one for large enough $q$ and the corresponding operator product expansion(OPE) coefficient of the compactified boson theory can also be read out directly from the fixed point tensor.
We explore a class of random tensor network models with ``stabilizer local tensors which we name Random Stabilizer Tensor Networks (RSTNs). For RSTNs defined on a two-dimensional square lattice, we perform extensive numerical studies of entanglement phase transitions between volume-law and area-law entangled phases of the one-dimensional boundary states. These transitions occur when either (a) the bond dimension $D$ of the constituent tensors is varied, or (b) the tensor network is subject to random breaking of bulk bonds, implemented by forced measurements. In the absence of broken bonds, we find that the RSTN supports a volume-law entangled boundary state with bond dimension $Dgeq3$ where $D$ is a prime number, and an area-law entangled boundary state for $D=2$. Upon breaking bonds at random in the bulk with probability $p$, there exists a critical measurement rate $p_c$ for each $Dgeq 3$ above which the boundary state becomes area-law entangled. To explore the conformal invariance at these entanglement transitions for different prime $D$, we consider tensor networks on a finite rectangular geometry with a variety of boundary conditions, and extract universal operator scaling dimensions via extensive numerical calculations of the entanglement entropy, mutual information and mutual negativity at their respective critical points. Our results at large $D$ approach known universal data of percolation conformal field theory, while showing clear discrepancies at smaller $D$, suggesting a distinct entanglement transition universality class for each prime $D$. We further study universal entanglement properties in the volume-law phase and demonstrate quantitative agreement with the recently proposed description in terms of a directed polymer in a random environment.
We study the behavior of bipartite entanglement at fixed von Neumann entropy. We look at the distribution of the entanglement spectrum, that is the eigenvalues of the reduced density matrix of a quantum system in a pure state. We report the presence of two continuous phase transitions, characterized by different entanglement spectra, which are deformations of classical eigenvalue distributions.
The statistical mechanics of a two-state Ising spin-glass model with finite random connectivity, in which each site is connected to a finite number of other sites, is extended in this work within the replica technique to study the phase transitions i n the three-state Ghatak-Sherrington (or random Blume-Capel) model of a spin glass with a crystal field term. The replica symmetry ansatz for the order function is expressed in terms of a two-dimensional effective-field distribution which is determined numerically by means of a population dynamics procedure. Phase diagrams are obtained exhibiting phase boundaries which have a reentrance with both a continuous and a genuine first-order transition with a discontinuity in the entropy. This may be seen as inverse freezing, which has been studied extensively lately, as a process either with or without exchange of latent heat.
