Computational Research on Quantum Many-Body Systems<\/strong><\/p>\n My research specializes in computational research on interacting quantum many-body systems, in particular quantum spin systems. This contains has two interrelated themes; (i) developing algorithms for simulations of complex model systems and (ii) using those methods to study collective phenomena such as quantum phase transitions.<\/p>\n \u201cDuality between the Deconfined Quantum-Critical Point and the Bosonic Topological Transition\u201d, Yan Qi Qin, Yuan-Yao He, Yi-Zhuang You, Zhong-Yi Lu, Arnab Sen, Anders W.
