Abstract: We study the zero temperature quenching dynamics of various extensions of the transverse Ising model (TIM) when the transverse field is linearly quenched from infty to +infty (or zero) at a finite and uniform rate. The rate of quenching is dictated by a characteristic scale given by au. The density of kinks produced in these extended models while crossing the quantum critical points during the quenching process is calculated using a many body generalization of the Landau-Zener transition theory. The density of kinks in the final state is found to decay as au1/2. In the first model considered here, the transverse Ising Hamiltonian includes an additional ferromagnetic three spin interaction term of strength J3. For J3<0.5, the kink density is found to increase monotonically with J3 whereas it decreases with J3 for J3>0.5. The point J3=0.5 and the transverse field h=0.5is multicritical where the density shows a slower decay given by au1/6. We also study the effect of ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic next nearest neighbor (NNN) interactions on the dynamics of TIM under the same quenching scheme. In a mean field approximation, the transverse Ising Hamiltonians with NNN interactions are identical to the three spin Hamiltonian. The NNN interactions non-trivially modifies the dynamical behavior, for example an antiferromagnetic NNN interactions results to a larger number of kinks in the final state in comparison to the case when the NNN interaction is ferromagnetic.
