What is a quantum phase transition ?
Non-analyticity in ground state properties as a function of some control parameter g
E
g
True level crossing:
Usually a first-order transition
E
g
Avoided level crossing which becomes sharp in the infinite
volume limit:
second-order transition

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.
~ zcg g ν∆ −
Important property of ground state at g=gc : temporal and spatial scale invariance;
characteristic energy scale at other values of g:
• 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.
