We introduce a kinetically constrained spin model with a local softness parameter, such that spin flips can violate the kinetic constraint with an (annealed) site-dependent rate. We show that adding MC swap moves to this model can dramatically accele...

© 2019 American Physical Society. We study a class of spin-1/2 quantum ladder models with generalized plaquette interactions in the presence of a transverse field. We show that in certain parameter regimes, these models have strong zero modes respons... Read More about Strong zero modes in a class of generalized Ising spin ladders with plaquette interactions.
