Abstract

For arbitrary space dimension d, we investigate the quantum phase transitions of two paradigmatic spin models defined on a hypercubic lattice, the coupled-dimer Heisenberg model and the transverse-field Ising model. To this end, high-order linked-cluster expansions for the ground-state energy and the one-particle gap are performed up to order 9 about the decoupled-dimer and high-field limits, respectively. Extrapolations of the high-order series yield the location of the quantum phase transition and the correlation-length exponent \ensuremathν as a function of space dimension d. The results are complemented by 1/d expansions to next-to-leading order of observables across the phase diagrams. Remarkably, our analysis of the extrapolated linked-cluster expansion allows to extract the coefficients of the full 1/d expansion for the phase-boundary location in both models exactly in leading order and quantitatively for subleading corrections.
