Abstract

The Lipkin model is a popular toy model, first used in nuclear physics, to understand quantum phase transitions including symmetry breaking. However, the thermodynamic limit, that is the limit of large particle numbers, appears rather elusive. The pattern of the exceptional points of the model, in particular their behavior with increasing particle numbers, is presented. They may give a clue as to the properties of the Lipkin Hamiltonian in the thermodynamic limit.
