摘要
We introduce a one-dimensional XZ model with alternating sigma(z)(i)sigma(z)(i+1) and sigma(x)(i)sigma(x)(i+1), interactions on even/odd bonds, interpolating between the Ising model and the quantum compass model. We present two ways of its exact solution by: (i) mapping to the quantum Ising models, and (ii) using fermions with spin 1/2. In certain cases the nearest neighbor pseudospin correlations change discontinuously at the quantum phase transition, where one finds highly degenerate ground state of the 1D compass model.
