We extract the critical exponents $\\nu$ and $\\beta$ as a function of the decay exponent of the long-range interactions. For ferromagnetic Ising interactions, we resolve the limiting regimes known from field theory, ranging from the nearest-neighbor Ising to the long-range Gaussian universality classes, as well as the intermediate regime with continuously varying critical exponents. In the long-range Gaussian regime, we treat the effect of dangerous irrelevant variables on finite-size scaling forms. For antiferromagnetic and therefore competing Ising interactions, the stochastic series expansion algorithm displays growing auto-correlation times leading to a reduced performance. Nevertheless, our results are consistent with the nearest-neighbor Ising universality for all investigated interaction ranges both on the linear chain and the square lattice.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-03-17T07:00:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum monte carlo simulations", "long-range transverse-field ising model", "quantum-critical properties", "growing auto-correlation times", "series expansion algorithm displays" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
