Low-dimensional quantum systems host a variety of exotic states, such as symmetry-protected topological ground states in spin-1 Haldane chains. Real-world realizations of such states could serve as practical quantum simulators for quantum…
We ask whether a local Hamiltonian with a featureless (fully gapped and nondegenerate) ground state could exist in certain quantum spin systems. We address this question by mapping the vicinity of certain quantum critical point (or gapless…

We show the existence of intrinsic localized spins in mesoscopic high-mobility GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures. Non-equilibrium transport spectroscopy reveals a quasi-regular distribution of the spins, and indicates that the spins interact…
Based on a result by Yarotsky (J. Stat. Phys. 118, 2005), we prove that localized but otherwise arbitrary perturbations of weakly interacting quantum spin systems with uniformly gapped on-site terms change the ground state of such a system…
The von Neumann entanglement entropy of exact valence-bond ground states is studied in two frustrated one-dimensional spin chains: the spin-1/2 Majumdar-Ghosh (MG) model and the spin-3/2 J1-J2-J3 chain in its fully dimerized (FD) and…
A quantum jammed state can be seen as a state where the phase space available to particles shrinks to zero, an interpretation quite accurate in integrable systems, where stable quasiparticles scatter elastically. We consider the integrable…
We consider quantum spin systems defined on finite sets $V$ equipped with a metric. In typical examples, $V$ is a large, but finite subset of Z^d. For finite range Hamiltonians with uniformly bounded interaction terms and a unique, gapped…
The Lieb-Shultz-Mattis theorem is extended to Heisenberg chains with long-range interactions. We prove that the half-integer spin chain has no gap, if it possesses unique ground state and the exchange decays faster than the inverse-square…
An exact mechanism is written down to guarantee extensive residual ground state entropy and spin liquidity in spin-1/2 lattice models with bond-dependent couplings. It is based on the presence of extensively large and mutually non-commuting…
