The validity of the Haldane's conjecture entails that the mass gap of the 2-dimensional O(3) non-linear sigma model with a $\theta$-term must tend to zero as $\theta$ approaches the value $\pi$ by following a precise law. In the present…

By analytic continuation to real theta of data obtained from numerical simulation at imaginary theta we study the Haldane conjecture and show that the O(3) non-linear sigma model with a theta term in 2 dimensions becomes massless at…

Twelve years ago, Haldane formulated his famous conjecture for 1-d antiferromagnetic quantum spin chains. In the context of the 2-d O(3) model with a \theta term, it predicts a phase transition at \theta = \pi, which has not yet been…

This work studies the appearance of a Haldane gap in quasi one-dimensional antiferromagnets in the long wavelength limit, via the nonlinear $\sigma$-model. The mapping from the three-dimensional, integer spin Heisenberg model to the…

We calculate the Haldane gap of the $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ spin $[3~0~0]$ Heisenberg model using variational uniform fully symmetric $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ matrix product states, and find that the minimal gap $\Delta /J = 0.0263 $ is obtained in the…

Working in and out of equilibrium and using state-of-the-art techniques we have computed the dynamic critical exponent of the three dimensional Heisenberg model. By computing the integrated autocorrelation time at equilibrium, for lattice…

Although there is now a good measure of agreement between Monte Carlo and high-temperature series expansion estimates for Ising ($n=1$) models, published results for the critical temperature from series expansions up to 12{\em th} order for…

This letter investigates the application of Haldane's statistical correlation theory in classical systems. A modified statistical correlation theory has been proposed by including non-linearity in the form of an exponent into the original…

The 2d Heisenberg model --- or 2d O(3) model --- is popular in condensed matter physics, and in particle physics as a toy model for QCD. Along with other analogies, it shares with 4d Yang-Mills theories, and with QCD, the property that the…

We investigate numerically the transverse and longitudinal correlation lengths of the three-dimensional O(4) model as a function of the external field H. From our data we calculate the scaling function of the transverse correlation length,…

The low energy dynamics of the anti-ferromagnetic Heisenberg spin $S$ chain in the semiclassical limit $S\to\infty$ is known to map onto the O(3) nonlinear $\sigma$ model with a $\theta$ term in 1+1 dimension. Guided by the underlying dual…

String correlations are investigated in an infinite-size XXZ spin-1 chain. By using the infinite matrix product state representation, we calculate a long-range string order. In the XY phase, the string correlations decay within a relatively…
