Monte Carlo simulations of the SU(2)-symmetric deconfined critical point action reveal strong violations of scale invariance for the deconfinement transition. We find compelling evidence that the generic runaway renormalization flow of the gauge coupling is to a weak first order transition, similar to the case of U(1)$times$U(1) symmetry. Our results imply that recent numeric studies of the N`{e}el antiferromagnet to valence bond solid quantum phase transition in SU(2)-symmetric models were not accurate enough in determining the nature of the transition.

Quantum electrodynamics in 2+1 dimensions is an effective gauge theory for the so called algebraic quantum liquids. A new type of such a liquid, the algebraic charge liquid, has been proposed recently in the context of deconfined quantum critical poi
nts [R. K. Kaul {it et al.}, Nature Physics {bf 4}, 28 (2008)]. In this context, we show by using the renormalization group in $d=4-epsilon$ spacetime dimensions, that a deconfined quantum critical point occurs in a SU(2) system provided the number of Dirac fermion species $N_fgeq 4$. The calculations are done in a representation where the Dirac fermions are given by four-component spinors. The critical exponents are calculated for several values of $N_f$. In particular, for $N_f=4$ and $epsilon=1$ ($d=2+1$) the anomalous dimension of the Neel field is given by $eta_N=1/3$, with a correlation length exponent $ u=1/2$. These values change considerably for $N_f>4$. For instance, for $N_f=6$ we find $eta_Napprox 0.75191$ and $ uapprox 0.66009$. We also investigate the effect of chiral symmetry breaking and analyze the scaling behavior of the chiral holon susceptibility, $G_chi(x)equiv<bar psi(x)psi(x)bar psi(0)psi(0)>$.
It has been proposed that the deconfined criticality in $(2+1)d$ -- the quantum phase transition between a Neel anti-ferromagnet and a valence-bond-solid (VBS) -- may actually be pseudo-critical, in the sense that it is a weakly first-order transitio
n with a generically long correlation length. The underlying field theory of the transition would be a slightly complex (non-unitary) fixed point as a result of fixed points annihilation. This proposal was motivated by existing numerical results from large scale Monte-Carlo simulations as well as conformal bootstrap. However, an actual theory of such complex fixed point, incorporating key features of the transition such as the emergent $SO(5)$ symmetry, is so far absent. Here we propose a Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) nonlinear sigma model with level $k=1$, defined in $2+epsilon$ dimensions, with target space $S^{3+epsilon}$ and global symmetry $SO(4+epsilon)$. This gives a formal interpolation between the deconfined criticality at $d=3$ and the $SU(2)_1$ WZW theory at $d=2$ describing the spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg chain. The theory can be formally controlled, at least to leading order, in terms of the inverse of the WZW level $1/k$. We show that at leading order, there is a fixed point annihilation at $d^*approx2.77$, with complex fixed points above this dimension including the physical $d=3$ case. The pseudo-critical properties such as correlation length, scaling dimensions and the drifts of scaling dimensions as the system size increases, calculated crudely to leading order, are qualitatively consistent with existing numerics.
We describe characteristic physical properties of the recently introduced class of deconfined quantum critical points. Using some simple models, we highlight observables which clearly distinguish such critical points from those described by the conve
ntional Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson framework: such a distinction can be made quite precisely even though both classes of critical points are strongly coupled, and neither has sharp quasiparticle excitations. We also contrast our classification from proposals by Bernevig et al. (cond-mat/0004291) and Yoshioka et al. (cond-mat/0404427).
Using a sample of $2.25times 10^8$ $J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for the $J/psi$ semi-leptonic weak decay $J/psi to D^{-}_{s} e^{+} u_{e}+c.c.$ with a much higher sensitivity than previous searche
s. We also perform the first search for $J/psi to D^{*-}_{s} e^{+} u_{e}+c.c.$ No significant excess of a signal above background is observed in either channel. At the $90%$ confidence level, the upper limits are determined to be $mathcal{B}(J/psi to D^{-}_{s}e^{+} u_{e}+c.c.)<1.3times10^{-6}$ and $mathcal{B}(J/psi to {D^{*}_{s}}^{-}e^{+} u_{e}+c.c.)<1.8times10^{-6}$, respectively. Both are consistent with Standard Model predictions.
There is a number of contradictory findings with regard to whether the theory describing easy-plane quantum antiferromagnets undergoes a second-order phase transition. The traditional Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson approach suggests a first-order phase trans
ition, as there are two different competing order parameters. On the other hand, it is known that the theory has the property of self-duality which has been connected to the existence of a deconfined quantum critical point. The latter regime suggests that order parameters are not the elementary building blocks of the theory, but rather consist of fractionalized particles that are confined in both phases of the transition and only appear - deconfine - at the critical point. Nevertheless, numerical Monte Carlo simulations disagree with the claim of deconfined quantum criticality in the system, indicating instead a first-order phase transition. Here these contradictions are resolved by demonstrating via a duality transformation that a new critical regime exists analogous to the zero temperature limit of a certain classical statistical mechanics system. Because of this analogy, we dub this critical regime frozen. A renormalization group analysis bolsters this claim, allowing us to go beyond it and align previous numerical predictions of the first-order phase transition with the deconfined criticality in a consistent framework.
