A quantum magnetic analogue to the critical point of water

Mohamed Zayed, Ludger Weber, Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Julio Antonio Larrea Jiménez, Kazimierz Conder, Ellen Fogh, Christian Rüegg

At the liquid-gas phase transition in water, the density has a discontinuity at atmospheric pressure; however, the line of these first-order transitions defined by increasing the applied pressure terminates at the critical point(1), a concept ubiquitous in ...

Time-reversal symmetry breaking Abelian chiral spin liquid in Mott phases of three-component fermions on the triangular lattice

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Pierre Marcel Nataf, Carolin Boos, Miklos Lajko

We provide numerical evidence in favor of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and the concomitant appearance of an Abelian chiral spin liquid for three-component fermions on the triangular lattice described by an SU(3) symmetric Hubbard model with hopping ...

Floating, critical, and dimerized phases in a frustrated spin-3/2 chain

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

We study spontaneous dimerization and emergent criticality in a spin-3/2 chain with antiferromagnetic nearestneighbor J(1), next-nearest-neighbor J(2), and three-site J(3) interactions. In the absence of three-site interaction J(3), we provide evidence tha ...

Multiple Magnetic Bilayers and Unconventional Criticality without Frustration in BaCuSi2O6

Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand, Nicolas Laflorencie, Gregory Scott Tucker, Christian Rüegg

The dimerized quantum magnet BaCuSi2O6 was proposed as an example of "dimensional reduction" arising near the magnetic-field-induced quantum critical point (QCP) due to perfect geometrical frustration of its interbilayer interactions. We demonstrate by hig ...

Perturbative approach to tunneling and quantum interferences in spin clusters

Frédéric Mila, Ivo Aguiar Maceira

Collective tunneling is a ubiquitous phenomenon in finite-size spin clusters that shows up in systems as diverse as molecular magnets or spin clusters adsorbed at surfaces. The basic problem we explore is to understand how small flipping terms can cooperat ...

Spin-1/2 kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet with strong breathing anisotropy

Frédéric Mila, Seyed Saeed Soyouf Jahromi

We study the zero-temperature phase diagram of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model with breathing anisotropy (i.e., with different coupling strength on the upward and downward triangles) on the kagome lattice. Our study relies on large scale tensor network simul ...

Haldane Gap of the Three-Box Symmetric SU(3) Chain

Frédéric Mila, Samuel Gozel, Pierre Marcel Nataf

Motivated by the recent generalization of the Haldane conjecture to SU(3) chains [Lajko et al., Nucl. Phys. B924, 508 (2017)] according to which a Haldane gap should be present for symmetric representations if the number of boxes in the Young diagram is a ...

SrCu2(BO3)(2) under pressure: A first-principles study

Frédéric Mila

Using density-functional theory (DFT) band-structure calculations, we study the crystal structure, lattice dynamics, and magnetic interactions in the Shastry-Sutherland magnet SrCu2(BO3)(2) under pressure, concentrating on experimentally relevant pressures ...

Spinon confinement and deconfinement in spin-1 chains

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga, Elisabeth Wybo

Motivated by the rich phase diagrams recently unveiled in frustrated spin-1 chains with competing next-nearest-neighbor and four-spin interactions, we investigate the nature of the elementary excitations of spin-1 chains in the vicinity of phase transition ...

Generalization of the Haldane conjecture to SU(n) chains

Frédéric Mila, Miklos Lajko

Recently, SU(3) chains in the symmetric and self-conjugate representations have been studied using field theory techniques. For certain representations, namely rank-psymmetric ones with pnot a multiple of 3, it was argued that the ground state exhibits gap ...

Magnetic-Field-Induced Bound States in Spin-1/2 Ladders

Frédéric Mila, Mithilesh Nayak

Motivated by the recently observed intriguing mode splittings in a magnetic field with inelastic neutron scattering in the spin ladder compound (C5H12N)(2) CuBr4 (BPCB), we investigate the nature of the spin ladder excitations using a density matrix renorm ...

Reduction of the sign problem near T=0 in quantum Monte Carlo simulations

Frédéric Mila, Jonathan D'Emidio

Building on a recent investigation of the Shastry-Sutherland model [S. Wessel et al., Phys. Rev. B 98, 174432 (2018)], we develop a general strategy to eliminate the Monte Carlo sign problem near the zero-temperature limit in frustrated quantum spin models ...

Novel families of SU(N) AKLT states with arbitrary self-conjugate edge states

Frédéric Mila, Samuel Gozel

Using the Matrix Product State framework, we generalize the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) construction to one-dimensional spin liquids with global color SU(N) symmetry, finite correlation lengths, and edge states that can belong to any self-conjugate ...

Emergent bound states and impurity pairs in chemically doped Shastry-Sutherland system

Frédéric Mila

Impurities often play a defining role in the ground states of frustrated quantum magnets. Studies of their effects are crucial in understanding of the phase diagram in these materials. SrCu2(BO3)(2), an experimental realization of the Shastry-Sutherland (S ...

Exploring the Kondo Effect of an Extended Impurity with Chains of Co Adatoms in a Magnetic Field

Frédéric Mila

Motivated by recent STM experiments, we explore the magnetic field induced Kondo effect that takes place at symmetry protected level crossings in finite Co adatom chains. We argue that the effective two-level system realized at a level crossing acts as an ...

Self-conjugate representation SU(3) chains

Frédéric Mila, Francisco Hyunkyu Kim, Miklos Lajko

It was recently argued that SU(3) chains in the p-box symmetric irreducible representation (irrep) exhibit a "Haldane gap" when p is a multiple of 3 and are otherwise gapless [Nucl. Phys. B 924, 508 (2017)]. We extend this argument to the self-conjugate ir ...

Dimerization and effective decoupling in two spin-1 generalizations of the spin-1/2 Majumdar-Ghosh chain

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

We perform a systematic DMRG investigation of the two natural spin-1 generalizations of the spin-1/2 Majumdar-Ghosh chain, the spin-1 J(1)-J(2) Heisenberg chain, where J(2) is a next-nearest-neighbor Heisenberg coupling, and the spin-1 J(1)-J(3) model, whe ...

Dimensional crossover in the SU(4) Heisenberg model in the six-dimensional antisymmetric self-conjugate representation revealed by quantum Monte Carlo and linear flavor-wave theory

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Francisco Hyunkyu Kim

Using linear flavor-wave theory (LFWT) and auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), we investigate the properties of the SU(4) Heisenberg model on the anisotropic square lattice in the fully antisymmetric six-dimensional irreducible representation, a mod ...

DMRG investigation of constrained models: from quantum dimer and quantum loop ladders to hard-boson and Fibonacci anyon chains

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

Motivated by the presence of Ising transitions that take place entirely in the singlet sector of frustrated spin-1/2 ladders and spin-1 chains, we study two types of effective dimer models on ladders, a quantum dimer model and a quantum loop model. Buildin ...

Competition between intermediate plaquette phases in SrCu2(BO3)(2) under pressure

Frédéric Mila, Carolin Boos

Building on the growing evidence based on NMR, magnetization, neutron scattering, electron spin resonance, and specific heat that, under pressure, SrCu2(BO3)(2) has an intermediate phase between the dimer and the Neel phase, we study the competition betwee ...
