contents From the perspective of low-lying excited states, we study the deconfined quantum critical point (DQCP) in a one-dimensional quantum spin chain by means of the entanglement entropy and fidelity. Our results show that there is a close connection between the reconstruction of low-lying excitation spectra and the DQCP. The precise position of the critical point and its continuous nature is indicated by the singular behavior of the entanglement and fidelity of the first-excited state. Furthermore, compared with the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless type phase transitions, which also go beyond the scope of Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm, we attempt to reveal the essence of different types of symmetries on both sides of the DQPT from different manifestations of entanglement singularity.
