The parton approach for quantum spin liquids gives a transparent description of low-energy elementary excitations, e.g., spinons and emergent gauge-field fluctuations. The latter ones are directly coupled to the hopping/pairing of spinons.…

We propose an SU(3) symmetric Hamiltonian with short-range interactions on the Kagome lattice and show that it hosts an Abelian chiral spin liquid (CSL) state. We provide numerical evidence based on exact diagonalization to show that this…

We theoretically investigate, within the Schwinger-Boson mean-field theory, the transition from a gapped $Z_{2}$ quantum spin-liquid, in a $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg spin-1/2 system in a honeycomb lattice, to a chiral $Z_2$ spin liquid phase…
