Abstract

We consider the spin-JJ XXZ-Hamiltonian on general graphs G\mathcal{G} and show its equivalence to a direct sum of discrete many-particle Schr\"odinger type operators on what we call "NN-particle graphs with maximal local occupation number MM", where the kinetic term is described by a weighted Laplacian. Generalizing previous results for the spin-1/21/2 case, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of spectral gaps above the low-lying droplet band when the underlying graph G\mathcal{G} is (i) the chain and (ii) a strip of width LL.
