Abstract
The staggered magnetization of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet in two dimensions can be systematically approximated by a 1/N expansion. Cancellation between self energy diagrams leads to a Luttinger-like theorem for the ground state. We prove (for a smooth enough self energy) that the long range order of mean field theory (=) survives corrections to all orders of 1/N. Divergences of this series provides a new route to the disordered phases of quantum antiferromagnets.
