Sweeping cluster algorithm for quantum spin systems with strong geometric restrictions

Abstract: Quantum spin systems with strong geometric restrictions give rise to rich quantum phases such as valence bond solids and spin liquid states. However, the geometric restrictions often hamper the application of sophisticated numerical approaches. Based on the stochastic series expansion method, we develop an efficient and exact quantum Monte Carlo "sweeping cluster" algorithm which automatically satisfies the geometrical restrictions. Here we use the quantum dimer model as a benchmark to demonstrate the reliabil… Show more

“…The distinction between first order transition and RK-type transition is that at the first order transition point, the Z 6 angular dependence pertains, whereas at the RK point, the angular dependence of the Z 6 peaks gradually fade away, and a 𝑈 (1) symmetry emerges, characterised by a ring in the histogram (Fig. S6b) [41]. This can be seen clearly numerically that when we go along the transition line from the first order end to the RK point, the Z 6 feature gradually disappears and the six peaks connect into one ring, and after crossing the RK point, the 𝑈 (1) symmetry is broken (Fig.…”

“…( 1). This term counts the overall number of flippable plaquettes, which involves unrealistic multiple spin interactions [27,41,42] in the spin representation. Therefore it is greatly appreciated to substitute the 𝑣 term with pairwise spin interactions realistic in nature.…”

“…By choosing clusters to update based on the flippable plaquettes in the expected ground state, we increase the likelihood of having segments with classically flippable clusters, and thus p α = 1. We have yet to investigate applying other cluster based update moves to the cluster selection stage, though some candidates exist such as the sweeping cluster update 34 .…”

“…As shown in Fig. 3(b), the constraint (triangle rule) will restrict the Hilbert space so that the TFIM is equivalent to a dual honeycomb lattice dimer model [47][48][49][50][51][52] by mapping two parallel spins to one dimer on the dual lattice. Then, the triangle rule is translated to dimer counterpart that each dual site belongs to one and only one dimer.…”
