Metallic quantum critical ferromagnets: a quantum Monte Carlo calculation of Non-Fermi liquid exponents

ORAL

Abstract

We study a lattice field theory describing the quantum ferromagnetic transition of a metal in two spatial dimensions, using a sign-problem free quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. We provide evidence for the continuous nature of the transition, and calculate universal critical exponents that indicate non-Fermi liquid behaviour at the critical point.
