What is a quantum phase transition ?Non-analyticity in ground state properties as a function of some control parameter g
T Quantum-critical
Why study quantum phase transitions ?
ggc• Theory for a quantum system with strong correlations: describe phases on either side of gc by expanding in deviation from the quantum critical point. • Critical point is a novel state of matter without quasiparticle excitations
• Critical excitations control dynamics in the wide quantum-critical region at non-zero temperatures.
