The BerezinskiiKosterlitzThouless (BKT) transition [][] is very well understood in terms of its physical mechanism of vortexantivortex unbinding.The field-theoretical formulation of this two-dimensional (2D) problem of a U(1) symmetric order parameter gives a rigorous quantitative characterization of the transition into the critical Quasi 2-dimensional superconductivity: First, we discuss why BKT theory is applicable to heavy fermion superlattices. WebWe employ the theory of topological phase transitions, of the Berezinski-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) type, in order to investigate orientational ordering in four spatial dimensions that is In the usual two-fluid picture, the exponent =44\alpha=4italic_ = 4. M.Chand, The power spectral density of the resistance fluctuations was seen to deviate from 1/f as transition temperature is approached. The XY model is a two-dimensional vector spin model that possesses U(1) or circular symmetry.

Thus the vortex core energy is significantly reduced due to magnetic fluctuations. 2D XY-model was extensively studied to capture the nature of BKT transition in these systems. Salkola, Phys. However, this is not the case due to the singular nature of vortices.

Davis, T WebThe BerezinskiiKosterlitzThouless transition (BKT transition) is a phase transition of the two-dimensional (2-D) XY model in statistical physics. Our results show that both the anisotropic gas and the stripe phases follow the BKT scaling laws.

Lett. [Mondal etal., 2011]). 60 63 The two BKT correlation scales account for the emergent granularity observed around the transition. Further, the existence of a decoherence-free subspace as well as of both classical and quantum (first-order and Kosterlitz-Thouless type) phase transitions, in the Omhic regime, is brought to light.
