The complete phase diagram of detailed-balanced Gibbs samplers for the mean-field Heisenberg model
Abstract
We study the spectral gap of recently discovered families of KMS-detailed-balanced Gibbs-sampler Lindbladians for the mean-field Heisenberg model on $n$ spins. We show that the spectral gaps of these natural families of Lindbladians admit the same phase diagram: the gap is constant above the critical temperature (i.e., in the disordered phase), scales as $1/\sqrt{n}$ at the critical temperature, and as $1/n$ below the critical temperature (i.e., in the ordered phase). Our result builds on and ex...
Description / Details
We study the spectral gap of recently discovered families of KMS-detailed-balanced Gibbs-sampler Lindbladians for the mean-field Heisenberg model on spins. We show that the spectral gaps of these natural families of Lindbladians admit the same phase diagram: the gap is constant above the critical temperature (i.e., in the disordered phase), scales as at the critical temperature, and as below the critical temperature (i.e., in the ordered phase). Our result builds on and extends the recent work of Basso et al.~(2026) which characterized this phase diagram for the GNS-detailed-balanced Davies generator, but only partially resolved the gap scaling at the critical temperature.
