Reexamination of entanglement and the quantum phase transition

Reexamination of entanglement and the quantum phase transition

We show that, for an exactly solvable quantum spin model, a discontinuity in the first derivative of the ground-state concurrence appears in the absence of a quantum phase transition. It is opposed to the popular belief that the nonanalyticity property of ground-state concurrence can be used to determine quantum phase …
