<p>Large systems of interacting objects can give rise to a rich array of emergent behaviours. Make those objects quantum and the possibilities only expand. Interacting quantum many-body systems, as such systems are called, include essentially all physical systems. Luckily, we don’t usually need to consider this full quantum many-body description. The world at the human scale is essentially classical (not quantum), while at the microscopic scale of condensed matter physics we can often get by without interactions. Some systems, however, do require the full description. These are known as strongly correlated materials. Some of the most exciting topics in modern condensed matter fall under this umbrella: the spin liquids, the fractional quantum Hall effect, high temperature superconductivity and much more. Unfortunately, strongly correlated materials are notoriously difficult to study, defying many of the established theoretical techniques within the field. Enter <em>exactly solvable models</em>, these are interacting quantum many-body systems with extensively many local symmetries. The symmetries give rise to conserved charges which essentially break the model up into many non-interacting quantum systems which are more amenable to standard theoretical techniques. This thesis will focus on two such exactly solvable models.</p>

<p>The second, the Kitaev Honeycomb (KH) model, was the first solvable 2D model with a Quantum Spin Liquid (QSL) ground state. QSLs are generally expected to arise from Mott insulators when frustration prevents magnetic ordering all the way to zero temperature. The QSL state defies the traditional Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm of phases being defined by local order parameters. It is instead a topologically ordered phase. Recent work generalising non-interacting topological insulator phases to amorphous lattices raises the question of whether interacting phases like the QSLs can be similarly generalised. We extend the KH model to random lattices with fixed coordination number three generated by Voronoi partitions of the plane. We show that this model remains solvable and hosts a chiral amorphous QSL ground state. The presence of plaquettes with an odd number of sides leads to a spontaneous breaking of time reversal symmetry. We unearth a rich phase diagram displaying Abelian as well as a non-Abelian QSL phases with a remarkably simple ground state flux pattern. Furthermore, we show that the system undergoes a phase transition to a conducting thermal metal state and discuss possible experimental realisations.</p>

<p>Turning to the other key topic of this thesis, we have already discussed the AFM ordering of local moments in the Mott insulating state. Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson theory characterises phases of matter as inextricably linked to the emergence of long-range order via a spontaneously broken symmetry. Within this paradigm, we would not expect any interesting phases of matter not associated with AFM or other long-range order. However, Anderson first proposed in 1973 <span class="citation" data-cites="andersonResonatingValenceBonds1973"> [<a href="#ref-andersonResonatingValenceBonds1973" role="doc-biblioref">49</a>]</span> that, if long-range order is suppressed by some mechanism, it might lead to a liquid-like state even at zero temperature: a QSL.</p>

Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson theory characterises phases of matter as inextricably linked to the emergence of long-range order via a spontaneously broken symmetry. Within this paradigm, we would not expect any interesting phases of matter not associated with AFM or other long-range order. However, Anderson first proposed in 1973 <span class="citation" data-cites="Anderson1973"> [<a href="#ref-Anderson1973" role="doc-biblioref">49</a>]</span> that, if long-range order is suppressed by some mechanism, it might lead to a liquid-like state even at zero temperature: a QSL.</p>

<p>This QSL state would exist at zero or very low temperatures. Therefore, we would expect quantum effects to be very strong, which will have far reaching consequences. It was the discovery of a different phase, however, that really kickstarted interest in the topic. The fractional quantum Hall state, discovered in the 1980s <span class="citation" data-cites="laughlinAnomalousQuantumHall1983"> [<a href="#ref-laughlinAnomalousQuantumHall1983" role="doc-biblioref">50</a>]</span> is an explicit example of an interacting electron system that falls outside of the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm<a href="#fn1" class="footnote-ref" id="fnref1" role="doc-noteref"><sup>1</sup></a>. It shares many phenomenological properties with the QSL state.

The many-body ground state of such systems acts as a complex and highly entangled vacuum. This vacuum can support quasiparticle excitations with properties unbound from that of the Dirac fermions of the standard model.</p>

<p>The Falicov-Kimball (FK) model is one of the simplest models of the correlated electron problem. It captures the essence of the interaction between itinerant and localised electrons. It was originally introduced to explain the metal-insulator transition in f-electron systems but in its long history it has been interpreted variously as a model of electrons and ions, binary alloys or of crystal formation <span class="citation" data-cites="hubbardj.ElectronCorrelationsNarrow1963 falicovSimpleModelSemiconductorMetal1969 gruberFalicovKimballModelReview1996 gruberFalicovKimballModel2006"> [<a href="#ref-hubbardj.ElectronCorrelationsNarrow1963" role="doc-biblioref">1</a>–<a href="#ref-gruberFalicovKimballModel2006" role="doc-biblioref">4</a>]</span>.

<p>The Falicov-Kimball (FK) model is one of the simplest models of the correlated electron problem. It captures the essence of the interaction between itinerant and localised electrons. It was originally introduced to explain the metal-insulator transition in f-electron systems. However, in its long history, the FK model has been interpreted variously as a model of electrons and ions, binary alloys or crystal formation <span class="citation" data-cites="hubbardj.ElectronCorrelationsNarrow1963 falicovSimpleModelSemiconductorMetal1969 gruberFalicovKimballModelReview1996 gruberFalicovKimballModel2006"> [<a href="#ref-hubbardj.ElectronCorrelationsNarrow1963" role="doc-biblioref">1</a>–<a href="#ref-gruberFalicovKimballModel2006" role="doc-biblioref">4</a>]</span>.

<p>Like other exactly solvable models <span class="citation" data-cites="smithDisorderFreeLocalization2017"> [<a href="#ref-smithDisorderFreeLocalization2017" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>, the FK model possesses extensively many conserved degrees of freedom <span class="math inline">\([d^\dagger_{i}d_{i}, H] = 0\)</span>. Similarly, the Kitaev model contains an extensive number of conserved fluxes. So in both models, the Hilbert space breaks up into a set of sectors in which these operators take a definite value. Crucially, this reduces the interaction terms in the model from being quartic in fermion operators to quadratic. This is what makes the two models exactly solvable, in contrast to the Hubbard model. For the FK model the interaction term <span class="math inline">\((d^\dagger_{i}d_{i} - \tfrac{1}{2})\;(c^\dagger_{i}c_{i} - \tfrac{1}{2})\)</span> becomes quadratic when <span class="math inline">\(d^\dagger_{i}d_{i}\)</span> is replaced with on of its eigenvalues <span class="math inline">\(\{0,1\}\)</span>.

<p>Following Peierls’ argument, consider the difference in free energy <span class="math inline">\(\Delta F = \Delta E - T\Delta S\)</span> between an ordered state and a state with single domain wall as in fig. <a href="#fig:ising_model_domain_wall">3</a>. If this value is negative it implies that the ordered state is unstable with respect to domain wall defects, and they will thus proliferate, destroying the ordered phase. If we consider the scaling of the two terms with system size <span class="math inline">\(L\)</span> we see that short range interactions produce a constant energy penalty <span class="math inline">\(\Delta E\)</span> for a domain wall. In contrast, the number of such single domain wall states scales linearly with system size so the entropy is <span class="math inline">\(\propto \ln L\)</span>. Thus the entropic contribution dominates (eventually) in the thermodynamic limit and no finite temperature order is possible. In 2D and above, the energy penalty of a large domain wall scales like <span class="math inline">\(L^{d-1}\)</span> which is why they can support ordered phases. This argument does not quite apply to the FK model because of the aforementioned RKKY interaction. Instead this argument will give us insight into how to recover an ordered phase in the 1D FK model.</p>

<p>In contrast the LRI model <span class="math inline">\(H_{\mathrm{LRI}}\)</span> can have an FTPT in 1D.</p>
|

<p><span class="math display">\[H_{\mathrm{LRI}} = \sum_{ij} J(|i-j|) S_i S_j = J \sum_{i\neq j} |i - j|^{-\alpha} S_i S_j\]</span></p>

<p>Renormalisation group analyses show that the LRI model has an ordered phase in 1D for <span class="math inline">\(1 < \alpha < 2\)</span> <span class="citation" data-cites="dysonExistencePhasetransitionOnedimensional1969"> [<a href="#ref-dysonExistencePhasetransitionOnedimensional1969" role="doc-biblioref">37</a>]</span>.

Again considering the energy difference between the ordered state <span class="math inline">\(|\ldots\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow\ldots\rangle\)</span> and a domain wall state <span class="math inline">\(|\ldots\uparrow\uparrow\downarrow\downarrow\ldots\rangle\)</span>. In the case of the LRI model, careful counting shows that this energy penalty is <span id="eq:bg-dw-penalty"><span class="math display">\[\Delta E \propto \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} n J(n)\qquad{(1)}\]</span></span></p>
|
|
||||||
<p>because each interaction between spins separated across the domain by a bond length <span class="math inline">\(n\)</span> can be drawn between <span class="math inline">\(n\)</span> equivalent pairs of sites. The behaviour then depends crucially on how eq. <a href="#eq:bg-dw-penalty">1</a> scales with system size. Ruelle proved rigorously for a very general class of 1D systems that if <span class="math inline">\(\Delta E\)</span> or its many-body generalisation converges to a constant in the thermodynamic limit then the free energy is analytic <span class="citation" data-cites="ruelleStatisticalMechanicsOnedimensional1968"> [<a href="#ref-ruelleStatisticalMechanicsOnedimensional1968" role="doc-biblioref">38</a>]</span>. This rules out a finite order phase transition, though not one of the Kosterlitz-Thouless type. Dyson also proves this though with a slightly different condition on <span class="math inline">\(J(n)\)</span> <span class="citation" data-cites="dysonExistencePhasetransitionOnedimensional1969"> [<a href="#ref-dysonExistencePhasetransitionOnedimensional1969" role="doc-biblioref">37</a>]</span>.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>With a power law form for <span class="math inline">\(J(n)\)</span>, there are a few cases to consider:</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>For <span class="math inline">\(\alpha = 0\)</span> i.e infinite range interactions, the Ising model is exactly solvable and mean field theory is exact <span class="citation" data-cites="lipkinValidityManybodyApproximation1965"> [<a href="#ref-lipkinValidityManybodyApproximation1965" role="doc-biblioref">39</a>]</span>. This limit is the same as the infinite dimensional limit.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>For <span class="math inline">\(\alpha \leq 1\)</span> we have very slowly decaying interactions. <span class="math inline">\(\Delta E\)</span> does not converge as a function of system size so the Hamiltonian is non-extensive, a topic not without some considerable controversy <span class="citation" data-cites="grossNonextensiveHamiltonianSystems2002 lutskoQuestioningValidityNonextensive2011 wangCommentNonextensiveHamiltonian2003"> [<a href="#ref-grossNonextensiveHamiltonianSystems2002" role="doc-biblioref">40</a>–<a href="#ref-wangCommentNonextensiveHamiltonian2003" role="doc-biblioref">42</a>]</span> that we will not consider further here.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>For <span class="math inline">\(1 < \alpha < 2\)</span>, we get a phase transition to an ordered state at a finite temperature, this is what we want!</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>For <span class="math inline">\(\alpha = 2\)</span>, the energy of domain walls diverges logarithmically, and this turns out to be a Kostelitz-Thouless transition <span class="citation" data-cites="thoulessLongRangeOrderOneDimensional1969"> [<a href="#ref-thoulessLongRangeOrderOneDimensional1969" role="doc-biblioref">32</a>]</span>.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>Finally, for <span class="math inline">\(2 < \alpha\)</span> we have very quickly decaying interactions and domain walls again have a finite energy penalty, hence Peirels’ argument holds and there is no phase transition.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>One final complexity is that for <span class="math inline">\(\tfrac{3}{2} < \alpha < 2\)</span> renormalisation group methods show that the critical point has non-universal critical exponents that depend on <span class="math inline">\(\alpha\)</span> <span class="citation" data-cites="fisherCriticalExponentsLongRange1972"> [<a href="#ref-fisherCriticalExponentsLongRange1972" role="doc-biblioref">43</a>]</span>. To avoid this potential confounding factors we will park ourselves at <span class="math inline">\(\alpha = 1.25\)</span> when we apply these ideas to the FK model.</p>
|
|
||||||
<p>Were we to extend this to arbitrary dimension <span class="math inline">\(d\)</span> we would find that thermodynamics properties generally both <span class="math inline">\(d\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(\alpha\)</span>, long-range interactions can modify the ‘effective dimension’ of thermodynamic systems <span class="citation" data-cites="angeliniRelationsShortrangeLongrange2014"> [<a href="#ref-angeliniRelationsShortrangeLongrange2014" role="doc-biblioref">44</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>The KH can arise as the result of strong spin-orbit couplings in, for example, the transition metal based compounds <span class="citation" data-cites="Jackeli2009 HerrmannsAnRev2018 Winter2017 TrebstPhysRep2022 Takagi2019"> [<a href="#ref-Jackeli2009" role="doc-biblioref">2</a>–<a href="#ref-Takagi2019" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>. The model is highly frustrated: each spin would like to align along a different direction with each of its three neighbours but this cannot be achieved even classically <span class="citation" data-cites="chandraClassicalHeisenbergSpins2010 selaOrderbydisorderSpinorbitalLiquids2014"> [<a href="#ref-chandraClassicalHeisenbergSpins2010" role="doc-biblioref">7</a>,<a href="#ref-selaOrderbydisorderSpinorbitalLiquids2014" role="doc-biblioref">8</a>]</span>. This frustration leads the model to have a Quantum Sping Liquid (QSL) ground state, a complex many-body state with a high degree of entanglement but no long-range magnetic order even at zero temperature. While the possibility of a QSL ground state was suggested much earlier <span class="citation" data-cites="andersonResonatingValenceBonds1973"> [<a href="#ref-andersonResonatingValenceBonds1973" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>]</span>, the KH model was the first exactly solvable models of the QSL state.

<p>As with the Falicov-Kimball model, the KH model has a extensive number of conserved quantities, the fluxes. So again we will work in the simultaneous eigenbasis of the fluxes and the Hamiltonian so that we can treat the fluxes like a classical degree of freedom. This is part of what makes the model tractable. We will find that the ground state of the model corresponds to some particular choice of fluxes. We will refer to local excitations away from the flux ground state as <em>vortices</em>. In order to fully solve the model however, we must first move to a Majorana picture.</p>

We’ve seen that products of <span class="math inline">\(\phi_i\)</span> can be used to construct the flux associated with arbitrary contractible loops.

At first glance it may seem this would not have much relevance to physical realisations of the Kitaev model that will likely have a planar geometry with open boundary conditions.

<p>To discuss different ground state phases of the KH model we must first review the topic of anyons and topology. The standard argument for the existence of Fermions and Bosons goes like this: the quantum state of a system must pick up a factor of <span class="math inline">\(\pm1\)</span> if two identical particles are swapped. Only <span class="math inline">\(\pm1\)</span> are allowed since swapping twice must correspond to the identity. This argument works in 3D for states without topological degeneracy, which seems to be true of the real world, but condensed matter systems are subject to no such constraints.</p>

<p>First we realise that in 2D, swapping identical particles twice is not topologically equivalent to the identity, see fig. <a href="#fig:braiding">7</a>. Instead it corresponds to encircling one particle around the other. This means we can in general pick up any complex phase <span class="math inline">\(e^{i\theta}\)</span> upon exchange, hence the name <strong>any</strong>-ons. These are known as Abelian anyons because complex multiplication commutes and hence the group of braiding operations forms an Abelian group.</p>

<p>Both many-body localisation and Anderson localisation depend crucially on the presence of <em>quenched</em> disorder. Quenched disorder takes the form a static background field drawn from an arbitrary probability distribution to which the model is coupled.

This has led to ongoing interest in the possibility of disorder-free localisation where the disorder is instead <em>annealed</em>.

<p>True disorder-free localisation does occur in exactly solvable models with extensively many conserved quantities <span class="citation" data-cites="smithDisorderFreeLocalization2017"> [<a href="#ref-smithDisorderFreeLocalization2017" role="doc-biblioref">18</a>]</span>. As conserved quantities have no time dynamics this can be thought of as taking the separation of timescales to the infinite limit. The localisation phenomena present in the Falicov-Kimball model are instead the result of annealed disorder. A strong separation of timescales means that the heavy species is approximated as immobile with respect to the lighter itinerant species. At finite temperature the heavy species acts as a disorder potential for the lighter one. However, in contrast to quenched disorder, the probability distribution of annealed disorder is entirely determined by the thermodynamics of the Hamiltonian. In the 2D FK model this leads to multiple phases where localisation effects are relevant. At low temperatures the heavy species orders to a symmetry broken CDW phase, leading to a traditional band gap insulator. At higher temperatures however thermal disorder causes the light species to localise. At weak coupling, the localisation length can be very large, so finite sized systems may still conduct, an effect known as weak localisation <span class="citation" data-cites="antipovInteractionTunedAndersonMott2016"> [<a href="#ref-antipovInteractionTunedAndersonMott2016" role="doc-biblioref">19</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>The most direct method would be to fit a function of the form <span class="math inline">\(\psi(x) = f(x) e^{-|x-x_0|/\lambda}\)</span> to each single particle wavefunction to extract the localisation length <span class="math inline">\(\lambda\)</span>. This method is little used in practice since it requires storing and processing full wavefunctions which quickly becomes expensive for large systems.</p>

<p>For low dimensional systems with quenched disorder, transfer matrix methods can be used to directly extract the localisation length. These work by turning the time independent Schrödinger equation <span class="math inline">\(\hat{H}|\psi\rangle = E|\psi\rangle\)</span> into a matrix equation linking the amplitude of <span class="math inline">\(\psi\)</span> on each <span class="math inline">\(d-1\)</span> dimensional slice of the system to the next and looking at average properties of this transmission matrix. This method is less useful for systems like the FK model where the disorder as a whole must be sampled from the thermodynamic ensemble.</p>

<h3>Chapter Summary</h3>
|
||||||
<p>In this chapter we have covered the Falicov-Kimball model, the Kitaev Honeycomb model and the theory of disorder and localisation. We saw that the FK model is one of immobile species (spins) interacting with an itinerant quantum species (electrons). While the KH model is specified in terms of spins on a honeycomb lattice interacting via a highly anisotropic Ising coupling, it can be transformed into one of Majorana fermions interacting with a classical gauge field that supports immobile flux excitations. In each case it is the immobile species that makes each model exactly solvable. Both models have rich ground state and thermodynamic phase diagrams. The last part of this chapter dealt with disorder and how it almost inevitably leads to localisation. Both the FK and KH models are effectively disordered at finite temperatures by their immobile species. In the next chapter we will look at a version of the FK model in 1D augmented with long-range interactions in order to retain its ordered phase. The model is translation invariant but we will see that it exhibits disorder-free localisation. After that we will look at the KH model defined on an amorphous lattice with vertex degree <span class="math inline">\(z=3\)</span>.</p>

<p>For the model parameters used, we find that with our new scheme the matrix diagonalisation is skipped around 30% of the time at <span class="math inline">\(T = 2.5\)</span> and up to 80% at <span class="math inline">\(T = 1.5\)</span>. We observe that for <span class="math inline">\(N = 50\)</span>, the matrix diagonalisation, if it occurs, occupies around 60% of the total computation time for a single step. This rises to 90% at N = 300 and further increases for larger N. We therefore get the greatest speedup for large system sizes at low temperature where many prospective transitions are rejected at the classical stage and the matrix computation takes up the greatest fraction of the total computation time. The upshot is that we find a speedup of up to a factor of 10 at the cost of very little extra algorithmic complexity.</p>

<p>Our two-step method should be distinguished from the more common method for speeding up MCMC which is to add asymmetry to the proposal distribution to make it as similar as possible to <span class="math inline">\(\min\left(1, e^{-\beta \Delta E}\right)\)</span>. This reduces the number of rejected states, which brings the algorithm closer in efficiency to a direct sampling method. However it comes at the expense of requiring a way to directly sample from this complex distribution, a problem which MCMC was employed to solve in the first place. For example, recent work trains restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) to generate samples for the proposal distribution of the FK model <span class="citation" data-cites="huangAcceleratedMonteCarlo2017"> [<a href="#ref-huangAcceleratedMonteCarlo2017" role="doc-biblioref">11</a>]</span>. The RBMs are chosen as a parametrisation of the proposal distribution that can be efficiently sampled from while offering sufficient flexibility that they can be adjusted to match the target distribution. Our proposed method is considerably simpler and does not require training while still reaping some of the benefits of reduced computation.</p>

We explore the localisation properties of the fermionic sector and find that the localisation lengths vary dramatically across the phases and for different energies. Although moderate system sizes indicate the coexistence of localised and delocalised states within the CDW phase, we find quantitatively similar behaviour in a model of uncorrelated binary disorder on a CDW background. For large system sizes, i.e. for our 1D disorder model we can treat linear sizes of several thousand sites, we find that all states are eventually localised with a localisation length which diverges towards zero temperature.</p>

We explore the localisation properties of the fermionic sector and find that the localisation lengths vary dramatically across the phases and for different energies. The results at moderate system sizes indicate the coexistence of localised and delocalised states within the CDW phase. We then introduce a model of uncorrelated binary disorder on a CDW background. This disorder model gives quantitatively similar behaviour to the LRFK model but we are able to simulate it on much larger systems. For these larger system sizes, we find that all states are eventually localised with a localisation length which diverges towards zero temperature indicating that the results at moderate system size suggestive of coexistence were due to weak localisation effects.</p>

<p>The scaling of the IPR with system size <span class="math inline">\(\mathrm{IPR} \propto N^{-\tau}\)</span> depends on the localisation properties of states at that energy. For delocalised states, e.g. Bloch waves, <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span> is the physical dimension. For fully localised states <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span> goes to zero in the thermodynamic limit. However, for special types of disorder such as binary disorder, the localisation lengths can be large comparable to the system size at hand, which can make it difficult to extract the correct scaling. An additional complication arises from the fact that the scaling exponent may display intermediate behaviours for correlated disorder and in the vicinity of a localisation-delocalisation transition <span class="citation" data-cites="kramerLocalizationTheoryExperiment1993 eversAndersonTransitions2008"> [<a href="#ref-kramerLocalizationTheoryExperiment1993" role="doc-biblioref">5</a>,<a href="#ref-eversAndersonTransitions2008" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>. The thermal defects of the CDW phase lead to a binary disorder potential with a finite correlation length, which in principle could result in delocalised eigenstates.</p>

|
||||||
<p>The key question for our system is then: How is the <span class="math inline">\(T=0\)</span> CDW phase with fully delocalised fermionic states connected to the fully localised phase at high temperatures?</p>
|

<p>For a representative set of parameters covering all three phases fig. <a href="#fig:DOS">2</a> shows the density of states as function of energy while fig. <a href="#fig:IPR_scaling">3</a> shows <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span>, the scaling exponent of the IPR with system size, The DOS is symmetric about <span class="math inline">\(0\)</span> because of the particle hole symmetry of the model. At high temperatures, all of the eigenstates are localised in both the Mott and Anderson phases (with <span class="math inline">\(\tau \leq 0.07\)</span> for our system sizes). We also checked that the states are localised by direct inspection. Note that there are in-gap states for instance at <span class="math inline">\(\omega_0\)</span>, below the upper band which are localised and smoothly connected across the phase transition.</p>

<p>In the CDW phases at <span class="math inline">\(U=2\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(U=5\)</span>, we find for the states within the gapped CDW bands, e.g. at <span class="math inline">\(\omega_1\)</span>, scaling exponents <span class="math inline">\(\tau = 0.30\pm0.03\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(\tau = 0.15\pm0.05\)</span>, respectively. This surprising finding suggests that the CDW bands are partially delocalised with multi-fractal behaviour of the wavefunctions <span class="citation" data-cites="eversAndersonTransitions2008"> [<a href="#ref-eversAndersonTransitions2008" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>. This phenomenon would be unexpected in a 1D model as they generally do not support delocalisation in the presence of disorder except as the result of correlations in the emergent disorder potential <span class="citation" data-cites="croyAndersonLocalization1D2011 goldshteinPurePointSpectrum1977"> [<a href="#ref-croyAndersonLocalization1D2011" role="doc-biblioref">7</a>,<a href="#ref-goldshteinPurePointSpectrum1977" role="doc-biblioref">8</a>]</span>. However, we later show by comparison to an uncorrelated Anderson model that these nonzero exponents are a finite size effect and the states are localised with a finite <span class="math inline">\(\xi\)</span> similar to the system size, an example of weak localisation. As a result, the IPR does not scale correctly until the system size has grown much larger than <span class="math inline">\(\xi\)</span>. fig. <a href="#fig:DM_IPR_scaling">7</a> shows that the scaling of the IPR in the CDW phase does flatten out eventually.</p>

<p>Next, we use the DOS and the scaling exponent <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span> to explore the localisation properties over the energy-temperature plane in fig. <a href="#fig:gap_opening_U2">5</a> and fig. <a href="#fig:gap_opening_U5">4</a>. Gapped areas are shown in white, which highlights the distinction between the gapped Mott phase and the ungapped Anderson phase. In-gap states appear just below the critical point, smoothly filling the bandgap in the Anderson phase and forming islands in the Mott phase. As in the finite <span class="citation" data-cites="zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019"> [<a href="#ref-zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>]</span> and infinite dimensional <span class="citation" data-cites="hassanSpectralPropertiesChargedensitywave2007"> [<a href="#ref-hassanSpectralPropertiesChargedensitywave2007" role="doc-biblioref">10</a>]</span> cases, the in-gap states merge and are pushed to lower energy for decreasing U as the <span class="math inline">\(T=0\)</span> CDW gap closes. Intuitively, the presence of in-gap states can be understood as a result of domain wall fluctuations away from the AFM ordered background. These domain walls act as local potentials for impurity-like bound states <span class="citation" data-cites="zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019"> [<a href="#ref-zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>In order to understand the localisation properties we can compare the behaviour of our model with that of a simpler Anderson disorder model in which the spins are replaced by a CDW background with uncorrelated binary defect potentials. This is defined by replacing the spin degree of freedom in the FK model <span class="math inline">\(S_i = \pm \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> with a disorder potential <span class="math inline">\(d_i = \pm \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> controlled by a defect density <span class="math inline">\(\rho\)</span> such that <span class="math inline">\(d_i = -\tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> with probability <span class="math inline">\(\rho/2\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(d_i = \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> otherwise. <span class="math inline">\(\rho/2\)</span> is used rather than <span class="math inline">\(\rho\)</span> so that the disorder potential takes on the zero temperature CDW ground state at <span class="math inline">\(\rho = 0\)</span> and becomes a random choice over spin states at <span class="math inline">\(\rho = 1\)</span> i.e the infinite temperature limit.</p>

<p>As we can sample directly from the disorder model, rather than through MCMC, the samples are uncorrelated. Hence we can evaluate much larger system sizes with the disorder model which enables us to pin down the correct localisation effects. In particular, what appear to be delocalised states for small system sizes eventually turn out to be states with large localisation length. The localisation length diverges towards the ordered zero temperature CDW state. The interplay of interactions, which here produce as peculiar binary potential, and localisation can be very intricate and the added advantage of a 1D model is that we can explore very large system sizes.</p>

<p>For a representative set of parameters covering all three phases, fig. <a href="#fig:DOS">2</a> shows the density of states as function of energy while fig. <a href="#fig:IPR_scaling">3</a> shows <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span>, the scaling exponent of the IPR with system size. The DOS is symmetric about <span class="math inline">\(0\)</span> because of the particle hole symmetry of the model. At high temperatures, all of the eigenstates are localised in both the Mott and Anderson phases (with <span class="math inline">\(\tau \leq 0.07\)</span> for our system sizes). We also checked that the states are localised by direct inspection. Note that there are in-gap states, for instance at <span class="math inline">\(\omega_0\)</span>, below the upper band which are localised and smoothly connected across the phase transition.</p>

<p>In the CDW phases, at <span class="math inline">\(U=2\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(U=5\)</span>, we find that states within the gapped CDW bands, e.g. at <span class="math inline">\(\omega_1\)</span>, have scaling exponents <span class="math inline">\(\tau = 0.30\pm0.03\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(\tau = 0.15\pm0.05\)</span>, respectively. This surprising finding suggests that the CDW bands are partially delocalised with multi-fractal behaviour of the wavefunctions <span class="citation" data-cites="eversAndersonTransitions2008"> [<a href="#ref-eversAndersonTransitions2008" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>. This phenomenon would be unexpected in a 1D model as they generally do not support delocalisation in the presence of disorder except as the result of correlations in the emergent disorder potential <span class="citation" data-cites="croyAndersonLocalization1D2011 goldshteinPurePointSpectrum1977"> [<a href="#ref-croyAndersonLocalization1D2011" role="doc-biblioref">7</a>,<a href="#ref-goldshteinPurePointSpectrum1977" role="doc-biblioref">8</a>]</span>. However, we show later, by comparison to an uncorrelated Anderson model, that these nonzero exponents are a finite size effect and the states are localised with a finite <span class="math inline">\(\xi\)</span> similar to the system size. This is an example of weak localisation. As a result, the IPR does not scale correctly until the system size has grown much larger than <span class="math inline">\(\xi\)</span>. Fig. <a href="#fig:DM_IPR_scaling">7</a> shows that the scaling of the IPR in the CDW phase does flatten out eventually.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Next, we use the DOS and the scaling exponent <span class="math inline">\(\tau\)</span> to explore the localisation properties over the energy-temperature plane in fig. <a href="#fig:gap_opening_U2">5</a> and fig. <a href="#fig:gap_opening_U5">4</a>. Gapped areas are shown in white, which highlights the distinction between the gapped Mott phase and the ungapped Anderson phase. In-gap states appear just below the critical point, smoothly filling the bandgap in the Anderson phase and forming islands in the Mott phase. As in the finite <span class="citation" data-cites="zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019"> [<a href="#ref-zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>]</span> and infinite dimensional <span class="citation" data-cites="hassanSpectralPropertiesChargedensitywave2007"> [<a href="#ref-hassanSpectralPropertiesChargedensitywave2007" role="doc-biblioref">10</a>]</span> cases, the in-gap states merge and are pushed to lower energy for decreasing U as the <span class="math inline">\(T=0\)</span> CDW gap closes. Intuitively, the presence of in-gap states can be understood as a result of domain wall fluctuations away from the AFM ordered background. These domain walls act as local potentials for impurity-like bound states <span class="citation" data-cites="zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019"> [<a href="#ref-zondaGaplessRegimeCharge2019" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>]</span>.</p>

|
<p>To understand the localisation properties we can compare the behaviour of our model with that of a simpler Anderson disorder model in which the spins are replaced by a CDW background with uncorrelated binary defect potentials. This is defined by replacing the spin degree of freedom in the FK model <span class="math inline">\(S_i = \pm \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> with a disorder potential <span class="math inline">\(d_i = \pm \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> controlled by a defect density <span class="math inline">\(\rho\)</span> such that <span class="math inline">\(d_i = -\tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> with probability <span class="math inline">\(\rho/2\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(d_i = \tfrac{1}{2}\)</span> otherwise. <span class="math inline">\(\rho/2\)</span> is used rather than <span class="math inline">\(\rho\)</span> so that the disorder potential takes on the zero temperature CDW ground state at <span class="math inline">\(\rho = 0\)</span> and becomes a random choice over spin states at <span class="math inline">\(\rho = 1\)</span> i.e the infinite temperature limit.</p>

<p>Our MCMC approach emphasises the presence of a disorder-free localisation mechanism within the translationally invariant system. Further, it gives a significant speed up over the naive method. We show that the LRFK model retains much of the rich phase diagram of its higher dimensional cousins. Careful scaling analysis indicates that all the single particle eigenstates eventually localise at non-zero temperature albeit only for very large system sizes of several thousand.</p>

<p>This chapter raises a number of interesting questions for future research. A straightforward but numerically challenging problem is to pin down the LRFK model’s behaviour closer to the critical point where correlations in the spin sector would become significant. This would lead to a long-range correlated effective disorder potential for the fermions. Would this modify the localisation behaviour? It has been shown that Anderson models with long-range correlated disorder potentials can have complex localisation behaviour not normally seen in 1D <span class="citation" data-cites="aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980 shimasakiAnomalousLocalizationMultifractality2022"> [<a href="#ref-aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980" role="doc-biblioref">11</a>,<a href="#ref-shimasakiAnomalousLocalizationMultifractality2022" role="doc-biblioref">12</a>]</span> so this seems like a promising line of research.

<p>In a broader context, we envisage that long-range interactions can also be used to gain a deeper understanding of the temperature evolution of topological phases. One example would be a LRFK version of the celebrated Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model where one could explore the interplay of topological bound states and thermal domain wall defects. Finally, the rich physics of our model should be realisable in systems with long-range interactions, such as trapped ion quantum simulators, where one can also explore the fully interacting regime with a dynamical background field.</p>

<p>Amorphous lattices are characterised by local constraints but no long-range order.

<p>The KH model is solvable on any lattice which satisfies two properties: it must be trivalent and it must three-edge-colourable.

<p>The second constraint required for the Kitaev model to remain solvable is that we must be able to assign labels to each bond <span class="math inline">\(\{x,y,z\}\)</span> such that each no two edges with the same label meet at a vertex. Such an assignment is is known as a three-edge-colouring. For translation invariant models we need only find a solution for the unit cell. This problem is usually small enough that this can be done by hand or using symmetry. For amorphous lattices, the difficulty is that, to the best of my knowledge, the problem of edge-colouring these lattices in general is in NP. To find colourings in practice, we will employ a standard method from the computer science literature for finding solutions of NP problems called a SAT solver, this is discussed in more detail in the <a href="../4_Amorphous_Kitaev_Model/4.2_AMK_Methods.html#amk-methods">methods secton</a>.</p>

<p>Luckily, some problems are easier in practice. Three-edge-colouring cubic toroidal graphs appears to be one of those things.

<p>Whether graph colouring problems are in NP or P seems to depend delicately on the class of graphs considered, the maximum degree and the number of colours used. It is therefore possible that a polynomial time algorithm may exist for our problem. However using a SAT solver turns out to be fast enough in practice that it is by no means the rate limiting step for generating and solving instances of the AK model. In <a href="../6_Appendices/A.3_Lattice_Generation.html#app-lattice-generation">appendix A.3</a> I detail the specifics of how I mapped edge-colouring problems to SAT instances and show a breakdown of where the computational effort is spent, the majority being on diagonalisation.</p>

<p>The second part of the argument is to show that the energetic effect of introducing periodicity scales away as we go to larger system sizes and has already diminished to a small enough value at 16 plaquettes, which is indeed what we find. From this we argue that the results for small periodic systems generalise to large amorphous systems. In the isotropic case (<span class="math inline">\(J^\alpha = 1\)</span>), Lieb’s theorem correctly predicts the ground state flux sector for all of the lattices we tested. For the toric code phase (<span class="math inline">\(J^x = J^y = 0.25, J^z = 1\)</span>) all but around (<span class="math inline">\(\sim 0.5 \%\)</span>) lattices had ground states conforming to our conjecture. In these cases, the energy difference between the true ground state and our prediction was on the order of <span class="math inline">\(10^{-6} J\)</span>.</p>

<p>The spin Kitaev Hamiltonian is real and therefore has time reversal symmetry. However in the ground state the flux <span class="math inline">\(\phi_p\)</span> through any plaquette with an odd number of sides has imaginary eigenvalues <span class="math inline">\(\pm i\)</span>. Thus, states with a fixed flux sector spontaneously break time reversal symmetry.

<p>So we have flux sectors that come in degenerate pairs, where time reversal is equivalent to inverting the flux through every odd plaquette, a general feature for lattices with odd plaquettes <span class="citation" data-cites="yaoExactChiralSpin2007 Peri2020"> [<a href="#ref-yaoExactChiralSpin2007" role="doc-biblioref">3</a>,<a href="#ref-Peri2020" role="doc-biblioref">4</a>]</span>.

<p>Similar to the KH model with a magnetic field, we find that the amorphous model is only gapless along critical lines, see fig. <a href="#fig:phase_diagram">1</a> (Left). Interestingly, in finite size systems the gap closing exists in only one of the four topological sectors though the sectors become degenerate in the thermodynamic limit. Nevertheless this could be a useful way to define the (0, 0) topological flux sector for the amorphous model which otherwise has no natural way to choose it.</p>

We showed numerically that the ground state flux sector of the model is given by a simple extension of Lieb’s theorem. The model has two gapped QSL phases.

The AK model is an exactly solvable model of the chiral QSL state, one of the first models to exhibit a topologically non-trivial quantum many-body phase on an amorphous lattice. As such this study provides a number of future lines of research.</p>

<p>Given the lack of unambiguous signatures of the QSL state, it can be hard to distinguish the effects of the QSL state from the effect of disorder. So introducing topological disorder may only increase the experimental challenges. That being said, the presence of topological disorder may suppress competing interactions that would otherwise induce magnetic ordering at zero temperature potentially widening the class of materials that could host a QSL ground state. Alternatively, 3D realisations of the AK model could get around this issue of confusing a QSL with disorder because 3D would be expected to have a true Finite-Temperature Phase Transition (FTPT) to the thermal metal state that could be a useful experimental signature <span class="citation" data-cites="eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020 OBrienPRB2016"> [<a href="#ref-eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020" role="doc-biblioref">54</a>,<a href="#ref-OBrienPRB2016" role="doc-biblioref">55</a>]</span>. 3D Kitaev systems can also support CSL ground states <span class="citation" data-cites="mishchenkoChiralSpinLiquids2020"> [<a href="#ref-mishchenkoChiralSpinLiquids2020" role="doc-biblioref">56</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>We found a small number of lattices for which Lieb’s theorem did not correctly predict the true ground state flux sector. I see two possibilities for what could cause this. Firstly it could be a a finite size effect that is amplified by certain rare lattice configurations. It would be interesting to try to elucidate what lattice features are present when Lieb’s theorem fails. Alternatively, it might be telling that the ground state conjecture failed in the toric code A phase where the couplings are anisotropic. We showed that the colouring does not matter in the B phase. However an avenue that I did not explore was whether the particular choice of colouring for a lattice affects the physical properties in the toric code A phase. It is possible that some property of the particular colouring chosen is what leads to these rare failures of Lieb’s theorem.</p>

<p>This thesis has focussed on two strongly correlated systems. As is the case with many strongly correlated systems, their many-body ground states can be complex and often cannot be reduced to or even adiabatically connected to a product state. In this work, we looked at the Falicov-Kimball (FK) model and the Kitaev Honeycomb (KH) model and defined extensions to them: the Long-Range Falicov-Kimball (LRFK) and amorphous Kitaev (AK) models.</p>

<p>These models are all exactly solvable. They contain extensively many conserved charges which allow their Hamiltonians, and crucially, the interaction terms within them, to be written in quadratic form. This allows them to be solved using the theoretical machinery of non-interacting systems. In the case of the FK and LRFK models, this solvability arises from what is essentially a separation of timescales. The heavy particles move so slowly that they can be treated as stationary. In the KH and AK models, on the other hand, the origin of the conserved degrees of freedom is more complex. Here, the algebra of the Pauli matrices interacts with the trivalent lattices on which the models are defined, to give rise to an emergent <span class="math inline">\(\mathbb{Z}_2\)</span> gauge field whose fluxes are conserved. This latter case is a beautiful example of emergence at play in condensed matter. The gauge and Majorana physics of the Kitaev models seem to arise spontaneously from nothing. Though, of course, this physics was hidden within the structure and local symmetries of the spin Hamiltonian all along.</p>

<p>At first glance, exactly solvable models can seem a little too fine tuned to be particularly relevant to the real world. Surely these models don’t spontaneously arise in nature? The models studied here provide two different ways to answer this. As we saw, the FK model arises quite naturally as a limit of the Hubbard model which is not exactly solvable. In fact, the FK model has been used as a way to understand more about the behaviour of the Hubbard model itself and of the Mott insulating state. We’ve also seen that it can provide insight into other phenomena such as disorder-free localisation. The KH model was not originally proposed as a model of any particular physical system. It was nevertheless a plausible microscopic Hamiltonian and, given its remarkable properties, it is little wonder that material candidates for Kitaev physics were quickly found. In neither case is the model expected to be a perfect description of any material, indeed more realistic corrections to each model are likely to break their integrability. Despite this, exactly solvable models, by virtue of being solvable, can provide important insights into the diverse physics of strongly correlated materials.</p>

<p>In <a href="../3_Long_Range_Falicov_Kimball/3.1_LRFK_Model.html">chapter 3</a>, we looked at a generalised FK model in 1D, the LRFK model. Metal-insulator transitions are a key theme of work on the FK model and our 1D extension to it was no exception. With the addition of long-range interactions, the model showed a similarly rich phase diagram as its higher dimensional cousins, allowing us to look at transitions between metallic states and, band, Anderson and Mott insulators. We also looked at thermodynamics in 1D and how thermal fluctuations of the conserved charges can lead to disorder-free localisation in the FK and LRFK models. Though the initial surprising results suggested the presence of a mobility edge in 1D it turned out to be a weak localisation effect present in finite sized systems. We propose that a topological variant of the LRFK model akin to the SSH model could be interesting as a point for further study. It could also be an interesting target for cold atom experiments that can naturally generate long-range interactions <span class="citation" data-cites="lepersLongrangeInteractionsUltracold2017"> [<a href="#ref-lepersLongrangeInteractionsUltracold2017" role="doc-biblioref">1</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>That the Mott insulating state is a key part of the work on the LRFK model is fitting because Mott insulators are the main route to the formation of Quantum Spin Liquid (QSL) states which are themselves a primary driver of interest in the KH model and our extension, the AK model. In <a href="../4_Amorphous_Kitaev_Model/4.1_AMK_Model.html">chapter 4</a>, we addressed the question of whether frustrated magnetic interactions on amorphous lattices can give rise to quantum phases such as the QSL state and found that indeed they can. The AK model, a generalisation of the KH model to random lattices with fixed coordination number three, supports a kind of symmetry broken QSL state called a chiral spin liquid. We showed numerically that the ground state of the model follows a simple generalisation of Lieb’s theorem <span class="citation" data-cites="lieb_flux_1994 OBrienPRB2016 eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020"> [<a href="#ref-lieb_flux_1994" role="doc-biblioref">2</a>–<a href="#ref-eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020" role="doc-biblioref">4</a>]</span>. As with other extensions of the KH model <span class="citation" data-cites="yaoExactChiralSpin2007"> [<a href="#ref-yaoExactChiralSpin2007" role="doc-biblioref">5</a>]</span>, we found that removing the chiral symmetry of the lattice allows the model to support a gapped phase with non-Abelian anyon excitations. The broken lattice symmetry plays the role of the external magnetic field in the original KH model.

<p>Unlike the 2D FK model and 1D LRFK models, the KH and AK models don’t have a Finite-Temperature Phase Transition (FTPT). They immediately disorder at any finite temperature <span class="citation" data-cites="eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020"> [<a href="#ref-eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020" role="doc-biblioref">4</a>]</span>. However, generalisations of the KH model to 3D do in general have an FTPT. Indeed, the role of dimensionality has been a key theme in this work. Both localisation and thermodynamic phenomena depend crucially on dimensionality, with thermodynamic order generally suppressed and localisation effects strengthened in low dimensions. The graph theory that underpins the KH and AK models itself also changes strongly with dimension. Voronisation in 2D produces trivalent lattices, on which the spin-<span class="math inline">\(1/2\)</span> AK model is exactly solvable. Meanwhile in 3D, Voronisation gives us <span class="math inline">\(z=4\)</span> lattices upon which a spin-<span class="math inline">\(3/2\)</span> generalisation to the KH model is exactly solvable <span class="citation" data-cites="yaoAlgebraicSpinLiquid2009 wenQuantumOrderStringnet2003 ryuThreedimensionalTopologicalPhase2009"> [<a href="#ref-yaoAlgebraicSpinLiquid2009" role="doc-biblioref">9</a>–<a href="#ref-ryuThreedimensionalTopologicalPhase2009" role="doc-biblioref">11</a>]</span>. Similarly, planar graphs are a uniquely 2D construct. Satisfying planarity imposes constraints on the connectivity of planar graphs leading amorphous planar graphs to have strong anti-correlations which can violate otherwise robust bounds like the Harris criterion <span class="citation" data-cites="harrisEffectRandomDefects1974"> [<a href="#ref-harrisEffectRandomDefects1974" role="doc-biblioref">12</a>]</span>.

<p>Xiao-Gang Wen makes the case that one of the primary reasons to study QSLs is as a stepping stone to understanding the High-<span class="math inline">\(T_c\)</span> superconductors <span class="citation" data-cites="wenQuantumOrdersSymmetric2002"> [<a href="#ref-wenQuantumOrdersSymmetric2002" role="doc-biblioref">19</a>]</span>. His logic is that since the High-<span class="math inline">\(T_c\)</span> superconductors are believed to arise from doped Mott insulators, the QSLs, which arise from undoped Mott insulators, make a good jumping off point. This is where exactly solvable models like the FK and KH models shine. The FK model provides a tractable means to study superconductor like states in doped Mott insulators <span class="citation" data-cites="caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016"> [<a href="#ref-caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016" role="doc-biblioref">20</a>]</span>, while the KH model gives us a tangible QSL state to play with. The extensions introduced in this work serve to explore how far we can push these models. Overall, I believe that the results presented here show that exactly solvable models can be a useful theoretical tool for understanding the behaviour of generic strongly correlated materials.</p>

<p>Unlike the 2D FK model and 1D LRFK models, the KH and AK models don’t have a Finite-Temperature Phase Transition (FTPT). They immediately disorder at any finite temperature <span class="citation" data-cites="eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020"> [<a href="#ref-eschmannThermodynamicClassificationThreedimensional2020" role="doc-biblioref">3</a>]</span>. However, generalisations of the KH model to 3D do in general have an FTPT. Indeed, the role of dimensionality has been a key theme in this work. Both localisation and thermodynamic phenomena depend crucially on dimensionality, with thermodynamic order generally suppressed and localisation effects strengthened in low dimensions. The graph theory that underpins the KH and AK models itself also changes strongly with dimension. Voronisation in 2D produces trivalent lattices, on which the spin-<span class="math inline">\(1/2\)</span> AK model is exactly solvable. Meanwhile in 3D, voronisation gives us <span class="math inline">\(z=4\)</span> lattices upon which a spin-<span class="math inline">\(3/2\)</span> generalisation to the KH model is exactly solvable <span class="citation" data-cites="yaoAlgebraicSpinLiquid2009 wenQuantumOrderStringnet2003 ryuThreedimensionalTopologicalPhase2009"> [<a href="#ref-yaoAlgebraicSpinLiquid2009" role="doc-biblioref">8</a>–<a href="#ref-ryuThreedimensionalTopologicalPhase2009" role="doc-biblioref">10</a>]</span>. Similarly, planar and toroidal graphs are a uniquely 2D construct. Satisfying planarity imposes constraints on the connectivity of planar graphs. This leads amorphous planar graphs to have strong anti-correlations which can violate otherwise robust bounds like the Harris criterion <span class="citation" data-cites="harrisEffectRandomDefects1974"> [<a href="#ref-harrisEffectRandomDefects1974" role="doc-biblioref">11</a>]</span>. Contrast this with Anderson localisation in 1D where only longer range correlations in the disorder can produce surprising effects <span class="citation" data-cites="aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980 dassarmaLocalizationMobilityEdges1990 dunlapAbsenceLocalizationRandomdimer1990 izrailevLocalizationMobilityEdge1999 croyAndersonLocalization1D2011 izrailevAnomalousLocalizationLowDimensional2012"> [<a href="#ref-aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980" role="doc-biblioref">12</a>–<a href="#ref-izrailevAnomalousLocalizationLowDimensional2012" role="doc-biblioref">17</a>]</span>.</p>

<p>Looking towards future work, the LRFK model provides multiple possible routes. One interesting idea is to park the model at a thermal critical point. This would generate a scale-free disorder potential, which could potentially lead to complex localisation physics not often seen in 1D <span class="citation" data-cites="aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980 shimasakiAnomalousLocalizationMultifractality2022"> [<a href="#ref-aubryAnalyticityBreakingAnderson1980" role="doc-biblioref">12</a>,<a href="#ref-shimasakiAnomalousLocalizationMultifractality2022" role="doc-biblioref">18</a>]</span>. Like other solvable models of disorder-free localisation, the LRFK model should also exhibit intriguing out-of-equilibrium physics, such as slow entanglement dynamics. This could be used to help understand these phenomena in more generic interacting systems <span class="citation" data-cites="hartLogarithmicEntanglementGrowth2021"> [<a href="#ref-hartLogarithmicEntanglementGrowth2021" role="doc-biblioref">19</a>]</span>. There is also the rich ground state phenomenology of the FK model as a function of filling <span class="citation" data-cites="gruberGroundStatesSpinless1990"> [<a href="#ref-gruberGroundStatesSpinless1990" role="doc-biblioref">20</a>]</span>, such as the devil’s staircase <span class="citation" data-cites="michelettiCompleteDevilStaircase1997"> [<a href="#ref-michelettiCompleteDevilStaircase1997" role="doc-biblioref">21</a>]</span> as well as superconductor like states <span class="citation" data-cites="caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016"> [<a href="#ref-caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016" role="doc-biblioref">22</a>]</span>. Could the LRFK model stabilise these at finite temperature? Finally, a topological variant of the LRFK model akin to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model could be an interesting way to probe the interplay of topological bound states and thermal domain wall defects.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Looking at the AK model, we discussed whether its physics might be realisable in amorphous versions of known KH candidate materials <span class="citation" data-cites="TrebstPhysRep2022"> [<a href="#ref-TrebstPhysRep2022" role="doc-biblioref">23</a>]</span>. Alternatively, we might be able to engineer them in synthetic materials, such as Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs). Work on MOFs has already explored the possibility of both Kitaev-like interactions and amorphous lattices <span class="citation" data-cites="yamadaDesigningKitaevSpin2017 bennett2014amorphous"> [<a href="#ref-yamadaDesigningKitaevSpin2017" role="doc-biblioref">5</a>,<a href="#ref-bennett2014amorphous" role="doc-biblioref">6</a>]</span>. It is an open question whether the superexchange couplings that generate Kitaev interactions could survive the transition to an amorphous lattice. If the interactions do survive, there will likely be many defects of different kinds present in the resulting material. These might take the form of dangling bonds, vertex degree <span class="math inline">\(> 3\)</span> or violations of the colouring conditions. I therefore hope that future work examines how robust the QSL and CSL states of the AK model are to these kinds of disorder. This is a difficult task, as many of these classes of defects would break the integrability of the AK model that we relied on to make the work computationally feasible <span class="citation" data-cites="Rau2014 Chaloupka2010 Chaloupka2013 Chaloupka2015 Winter2016"> [<a href="#ref-Rau2014" role="doc-biblioref">24</a>–<a href="#ref-Winter2016" role="doc-biblioref">28</a>]</span>. While we are considering models with defects, we might consider alternate lattice construction techniques <span class="citation" data-cites="agarwala2019topological christRandomLatticeField1982"> [<a href="#ref-agarwala2019topological" role="doc-biblioref">29</a>,<a href="#ref-christRandomLatticeField1982" role="doc-biblioref">30</a>]</span>. Lattices constructed using these methods would have defects but may have other desirable properties when compared to Voronoi lattices.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>In terms of experimental signatures, we discussed the quantised thermal Hall effect <span class="citation" data-cites="Kasahara2018 Yokoi2021 Yamashita2020 Bruin2022"> [<a href="#ref-Kasahara2018" role="doc-biblioref">31</a>–<a href="#ref-Bruin2022" role="doc-biblioref">34</a>]</span>, local probes such as spin-polarised scanning tunnelling microscopy <span class="citation" data-cites="Feldmeier2020 Konig2020 Udagawa2021"> [<a href="#ref-Feldmeier2020" role="doc-biblioref">35</a>–<a href="#ref-Udagawa2021" role="doc-biblioref">37</a>]</span>, and longitudinal heat transport signatures <span class="citation" data-cites="Beenakker2013"> [<a href="#ref-Beenakker2013" role="doc-biblioref">38</a>]</span>. One possible difficulty is that the introduction of topological disorder may dilute some of these signatures. On the brighter side, topological disorder may also suppress competing interactions that would otherwise induce magnetic ordering. This could potentially widen the class of materials that could host a QSL or CSL ground state.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Both the LRFK and AK models could be interesting targets for quantum simulation. Cold atom experiments can naturally generate long-range interactions which would be well suited to simulations of the LRFK model <span class="citation" data-cites="lepersLongrangeInteractionsUltracold2017"> [<a href="#ref-lepersLongrangeInteractionsUltracold2017" role="doc-biblioref">39</a>]</span>. Optical lattice experiments are capable of supporting both Kitaev interactions <span class="citation" data-cites="duanControllingSpinExchange2003 micheliToolboxLatticespinModels2006"> [<a href="#ref-duanControllingSpinExchange2003" role="doc-biblioref">40</a>,<a href="#ref-micheliToolboxLatticespinModels2006" role="doc-biblioref">41</a>]</span> and amorphous lattices <span class="citation" data-cites="sadeghiAmorphousTwodimensionalOptical2005"> [<a href="#ref-sadeghiAmorphousTwodimensionalOptical2005" role="doc-biblioref">42</a>]</span> so it is natural to ask whether they could simulate the AK model too.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>Xiao-Gang Wen makes the case that one of the primary reasons to study QSLs is as a stepping stone to understanding the high-<span class="math inline">\(T_c\)</span> superconductors <span class="citation" data-cites="wenQuantumOrdersSymmetric2002"> [<a href="#ref-wenQuantumOrdersSymmetric2002" role="doc-biblioref">43</a>]</span>. His logic is that since the high-<span class="math inline">\(T_c\)</span> superconductors are believed to arise from doped Mott insulators, the QSLs, which arise from undoped Mott insulators, make a good jumping off point. This is where exactly solvable models like the FK and KH model shine. The FK model provides a tractable means to study superconductor like states in doped Mott insulators <span class="citation" data-cites="caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016"> [<a href="#ref-caiVisualizingEvolutionMott2016" role="doc-biblioref">22</a>]</span>, while the KH model gives us a tangible QSL state to play with. The extensions introduced in this work serve to explore how far we can push these models. To what extent they are a useful theoretical tool for understanding the behaviour of generic strongly correlated materials remains to be seen. Either way, I hope that this works spurs more interest in amorphous quantum many-body phases and strongly correlated materials.</p>

<p>Now we can discuss how to minimise the auto-correlations. The general principle is that one must balance the proposal distribution between two extremes. Choose overlay small steps, like flipping only a single spin and the acceptance rate will be high because <span class="math inline">\(\Delta F\)</span> will usually be small, but each state will be very similar to the previous and the auto-correlations will be high too, making sampling inefficient. On the other hand, overlay large steps, like randomising a large portion of the spins each step, will result in very frequent rejections, especially at low temperatures.</p>

<p>The solution presented here works well enough for our purposes. It does not take up a substantial fraction of the overall computation time, see +fig:times but other approaches could likely work.</p>

<p>When translating problems to CNF form, there is often some flexibility. For instance, we used three boolean variables to encode the colour of each edge and, then, additional constraints to require that only one of these variables be true. An alternative method which we did not try would be to encode the label of each edge using two variables, yielding four states per edge, and then add a constraint that one of the states, say (true, true) is disallowed. This would, however, have added some complexity to the encoding of the constraint that no adjacent edges can have the same colour.</p>

<p>The popular <em>Networkx</em> Python library uses a greedy graph colouring algorithm. It simply iterates over the vertices/edges/faces of a graph and assigns them a colour that is not already disallowed. This does not work for our purposes because it is not designed to look for a particular n-colouring. However, it does include the option of using a heuristic function that determine the order in which vertices will be coloured <span class="citation" data-cites="kosowski2004classical matulaSmallestlastOrderingClustering1983"> [<a href="#ref-kosowski2004classical" role="doc-biblioref">2</a>,<a href="#ref-matulaSmallestlastOrderingClustering1983" role="doc-biblioref">3</a>]</span>.
