Quantum Monte Carlo simulation for the conductance of one-dimensional quantum spin systems — •Kim Louis und Claudius Gros — Universität des Saarlandes

Recently, the stochastic series expansion (SSE) has been proposed as a powerful MC-method, which allows simulations at low T for quantum-spin systems. We show that the SSE allows to compute the magnetic conductance for various one-dimensional spin systems without further approximations. We consider various modifications of the anisotropic Heisenberg chain. We recover the Kane-Fisher scaling for one impurity in a Luttinger-liquid and study the influence of non-interacting leads for the conductance of an interacting system.
