Investigation of the Behavior of Quantum Coherence in Quantum Phase Transitions of Two-Dimensional XY and Ising Models (2208.00158v1)

Abstract: We investigate the behavior of quantum coherence of the ground states of 2D Heisenberg XY model and 2D Ising model with transverse field on square lattices, by using the method of Quantum Renormalization Group (QRG). We show that the non-analytic behavior of quantum coherence near the critical point, can detect quantum phase transition (QPT) of these models. We also use the scaling behavior of maximum derivative of quantum coherence, with system size, to find the critical exponent of coherence for both models and also the length exponent of the Ising model. The results are in close agreement with the ones obtained from entanglement analysis, that is while quantum coherence needs less computational calculations in comparison to entanglement approaches.
