A general procedure for thermomechanical calibration of nano/micro-mechanical resonators
TL;DR: In this paper, a general procedure to calibrate the detection of a nano/micro-mechanical resonator's displacement as it undergoes thermal Brownian motion is described, followed by a detailed derivation of the corresponding power spectral density (PSD) function, which is identical in all situations aside from a system-dependent effective mass value.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-precision finite-size scaling analysis of the quantum-critical point of S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic bilayers
TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum critical points of two Heisenberg antiferromagnets in two dimensions were studied using quantum Monte Carlo (stochastic series expansion) and finite-size scaling, and it was shown that at the critical point the Binder ratio has a universal value and the product of the spin stiffness and the long-wavelength susceptibility scales as $1∕{L}^{2} with a universal prefactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliable Padé analytical continuation method based on a high-accuracy symbolic computation algorithm
TL;DR: A systematic analysis of the effects of error in the input points on the analytic continuation leads to a procedure to test quantitatively the reliability of the resulting continuation, thus eliminating the black-magic label frequently attached to this procedure.

Identifying the maximum entropy method as a special limit of stochastic analytic continuation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employ a mapping between the analytic continuation problem and a system of interacting classical fields, and show that the maximum entropy method is a special limit of the stochastic analytic continuation method introduced by Sandvik.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct a generating function for spin correlation functions of arbitrary order and show that all nonvanishing contributions arise from configurations that are topologically irreducible.
