摘要

Analytical expressions are derived for the fidelity and for the quantum Loschmidt echo in the broken phase of the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model for large particle number N. A detailed comparison is given between this model and some other models for the decaying behaviors of the two quantities in the neighborhood of critical points. The two quantities show qualitatively different decaying behaviors on the two sides of the critical point. Specifically, in the broken phase they behave in a way similar to those in models such as the one-dimensional Ising chain in a transverse field. In contrast, in the symmetric phase, the similarity is to those in models such as the Dicke model.
