Monte-Carlo simulations of the dissipative random transverse-field Ising chain (1307.7166v1)

Published 26 Jul 2013 in cond-mat.str-el and cond-mat.dis-nn

Abstract: We study the influence of Ohmic dissipation on the random transverse-field Ising chain by means of large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations. To this end, we first map the Hamiltonian onto a classical Ising model with long-range $1/\tau2$ interaction in the time-like direction. We then apply the highly efficient cluster algorithm proposed by Luijten and Bl\"ote for system with long-range interactions. Our simulations show that Ohmic dissipation destroys the infinite-randomness quantum critical point of the dissipationless system. Instead, the quantum phase transition between the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases is smeared. We compare our results to recent predictions of a strong-disorder renormalization group approach, and we discuss generalizations to higher dimensions as well as experiments.
