abstract

We find all the exact eigenstates and eigenvalues of a spin-1/2 model on square lattice: $H=16g \sum_i S^y_i S^x_{i+x} S^y_{i+x+y} S^x_{i+y}$. We show that the ground states for $g<0$ and $g>0$ have different quantum orders described by Z2A and Z2B projective symmetry groups. The phase transition at $g=0$ represents a new kind of phase transitions that changes quantum orders but not symmetry. Both the Z2A and Z2B states are described by $Z_2$ lattice gauge theories at low energies. They have robust topologically degenerate ground states and gapless edge excitations.

  1. Self-dual $S_3$ gauge theory in 2+1d: lattice model and topological phase transitions

    cond-mat.str-el 2026-08 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A new sign-problem-free lattice Hamiltonian realizes the S3 quantum double with electric-magnetic duality as translation, yielding a tetracritical Ising boundary and three predicted topological transitions.

  2. Higher Gauging and Non-invertible Condensation Defects

    hep-th 2022-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Higher gauging of 1-form symmetries on surfaces in 2+1d QFT yields condensation defects whose fusion rules involve 1+1d TQFTs and realizes every 0-form symmetry in TQFTs.
