This is a review of ground-state features of the s=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on two-dimensional lattices. A central issue is the interplay of lattice topology (e.g. coordination number, non-equivalent nearest-neighbor bonds, geometric…
We study the spin-$1\over2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet with an antiferromagnetic $J_3$ (third nearest neighbor) interaction on a square lattice. We numerically diagonalize this ``$J_1$-$J_3$'' model on clusters up to 32-sites and search for…
How does magnetism behave when the physical dimension is reduced to the size of nanostructures? The multiplicity of magnetic states in these systems can be very rich, in that their properties depend on the atomic species, the cluster size,…
