• Abstract: The O(2) model in Euclidean space-time is the zero-gauge-coupling limit of the compact scalar quantum electrodynamics. We obtain a dual representation of it called the charge representation. We study the quantum phase transition in the charge representation with a truncation to ``spin $S$," where the quantum numbers have an absolute value less than or equal to $S$. The charge representation preserves the gapless-to-gapped phase transition even for the smallest spin truncation $S = 1$. The phase transition for $S = 1$ is an infinite-order Gaussian transition with the same critical exponents $\delta$ and $\eta$ as the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition, while there are true BKT transitions for $S \ge 2$. The essential singularity in the correlation length for $S = 1$ is different from that for $S \ge 2$. The exponential convergence of the phase-transition point is studied in both Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations. We discuss the effects of replacing the truncated $\hat{U}^{\pm} = \exp(\pm i \hat{\theta})$ operators by the spin ladder operators $\hat{S}^{\pm}$ in the Hamiltonian. The marginal operators vanish at the Gaussian transition point for $S = 1$, which allows us to extract the $\eta$ exponent with high accuracy.

  A quantum system governed by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian may exhibit zero temperature phase transitions driven by interactions. We show that when the $mathcalPT$ symmetry is broken, and time-evolution becomes non-unitary, a scaling behavior similar to the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition ensues.

  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

  We study the fidelity and the entanglement entropy for the ground states of quantum systems that have infinite-order quantum phase transitions. In particular, we consider the quantum O(2) model with a spin-$S$ truncation, where there is an infinite-order Gaussian (IOG) transition for $S = 1$. We show that the height of the peak in the fidelity susceptibility ($chi_F$) converges to a finite thermodynamic value as a power law of $1/L$ for the IOG transition and as $1/ln(L)$ for BKT transitions.
