Factorization and Criticality in the Anisotropic XY Chain via Correlations

Abstract: In this review, we discuss the zero and finite temperature behavior of various bipartite quantum and total correlation measures, the skew information-based quantum coherence, and the local quantum uncertainty in the thermal ground state of the one-dimensional anisotropic XY model in transverse magnetic field. We compare the ability of considered measures to correctly detect or estimate the quantum critical point and the non-trivial factorization point possessed by the spin chain.
