Constructing Landau framework for topological order: quantum chains and ladders
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We studied quantum phase transitions in the antiferromagnetic dimerized spin- 1 2 XY chain and two-leg ladders. From analysis of several spin models we present our main result: the framework to deal with topological orders and hidden symmetries within the Landau paradigm. After mapping of the spin Hamiltonians onto the tight-binding models with Dirac or Majorana fermions and, when necessary, the mean-field approximation, the analysis can be done analytically. By utilizing duality transformations the calculation of nonlocal string order parameters is mapped onto the local order problem in some dual representation and done without further approximations. Calculated phase diagrams, phase boundaries, order parameters and their symmetries for each of the phases provide a comprehensive quantitative Landau description of the quantum critical properties of the models considered. Complementarily, the phases with hidden orders can also be distinguished by the Pontryagin (winding) numbers which we have calculated as well. This unified framework can be straightforwardly applied for various spin chains and ladders, topological insulators and superconductors. Applications to other systems are under way.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
