As opposed to zero-temperature quantum phase transitions, the total correlations are not maximal at the phase transition, but reach a maximum in the high temperature paramagnetic phase. The Shannon and Renyi mutual information in both Ising and Potts models in 2 dimensions are calculated numerically by combining matrix product states algorithms and Monte Carlo sampling techniques.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2010-11-29T14:35:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mutual information", "classical spin models", "combining matrix product states algorithms", "finite temperature classical spin systems", "zero-temperature quantum phase transitions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment", "year": 2011, "month": "Oct", "volume": 2011, "number": 10, "pages": 10011 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011JSMTE..10..011W" } } }
