Abstract
Quantum phase transitions are a fascinating area of condensed matter physics.The extension through com-plexification not only broadens the scope of this field but also offers a new framework for understanding criti-cality and its statistical implications.This mini review provides a concise overview of recent developments in complexification,primarily covering finite temperature and equilibrium quantum phase transitions,as well as their connection with dynamical quantum phase transitions and non-Hermitian physics,with a particular focus on the significance of Fisher zeros.Starting from the newly discovered self-similarity phenomenon associated with complex partition functions,we further discuss research on self-similar systems briefly.Finally,we offer a perspective on these aspects.
