We carefully investigate the comprehensive impact of atom-cavity interaction and artificial magnetic fields on quantum phase transitions of anti-Jaynes-Cummings triangle model in the infinite frequency limit. We discover that ground states of the optical field can be a gapped normal phase (NP) or three kinds of gapless superradiant phases with infinite degeneracy. When the atom-cavity coupling is weak, the optical field is in a NP, which is a vacuum with no photons. Otherwise, it will stay at one of the superradiant phases: a normal superradiant phase without photon currents and another two chiral superradiant phases with opposite photon currents. The former only breaks the continuous U (1) symmetry and its gapless excitations are normal Goldstone modes. Nevertheless, the latter, mainly induced by an external synthetic gauge field, break both the continuous U (1) symmetry and chiral symmetry, thereby corresponding gapless excitations are chiral Goldstone modes. In addition, we also propose a detecting scheme to distinguish these superradiant phases. |
