Abstract:

Topological Quantum Field Theory or TQFT is a quantum field theory that calculates topological invariance in measurement theory and mathematical physics. In recent years, several attempts have been made to find efficient observations to determine the TQFT of quasiparticle properties. In this paper, we propose a different and very effective way to detect the critical points of TQFT by considering the system functions. We suggest the C-Function as a novel probe that is accurate for detecting the location of critical points on topological quantum. The C-function uses a holographic model to show a topological quantum phase transition between a simple topological isolation phase and a gapless Weyl semimetal. The quantum tipping point displays a strong Lifshitz-like anisotropy in the spatial direction, and a quantum phase transition that does not follow the standard Landau paradigm. The C-function precisely shows the global features of quantum criticality and distinguishes very accurately between two separate zero-temperature phases. Considering the C-function relationship with entanglement entropy can detect quantum phase transitions and can be applied outside the holographic framework.
