We study an anisotropic version of the $J_1-J_2$ model with S=1. We find a second order transition from a N\'eel $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ phase to a disordered phase with a spin gap.
We analyze the stability of the spontaneously dimerized spin-liquid phase of the frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnet - the J1-J2 model. The lowest triplet excitation, corresponding to breaking of a singlet bond, is found to be stable in…
We study a frustrated 3D antiferromagnet of stacked $J_1 - J_2$ layers. The intermediate 'quantum spin liquid' phase, present in the 2D case, narrows with increasing interlayer coupling and vanishes at a triple point. Beyond this there is a…
Recent numerical studies of the $J_1$-$J_2$ model on a square lattice suggest a possible continuous phase transition between the N\'eel state and a gapped spin-liquid state with Z$_2$ topological order. We show that such a phase transition…

We study a two-dimensional (2D) spin-half Heisenberg model related to the quasi 2D antiferromagnets (Ba,Sr)2Cu3O4Cl2 by means of exact diagonalization and spin-wave theory. The model consists of two inequivalent interpenetrating…

We examine the phase diagram of the spin-$1$ $J_1-J_2-J_3$ ferromagnetic Heisenberg model with an easy-plane crystal field on the cubic lattice, in which $J_1$ is the ferromagnetic exchange interaction between nearest neighbors, $J_2$ is…
The $J_1$-$J_2$ spin chain is one of the canonical models of quantum magnetism, and has long been known to host a critical antiferromagnetic phase with power-law decay of spin correlations. We show in this Letter that there are, in fact,…
We investigate the quantum phases of the frustrated spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ Heisenberg model on the square lattice with ferromagnetic $J_1$ and antiferromagnetic $J_2$ and $J_3$ interactions. Using the pseudo-fermion functional…

We study the quantum phase diagram of the spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg model on the kagom\'e lattice with first-, second-, and third-neighbor interactions $J_1$, $J_2$, and $J_3$ by means of density matrix renormalization group. For small $J_2$…
We study the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice with nearest-neighbor and plaquette four-spin exchanges (introduced by A.W. Sandvik, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 227202 (2007).) This model undergoes a quantum phase…
We develop a novel renormalization approach for frustrated quantum antiferromagnets. It is designed to consistently treat spin-wave interactions all over the magnetic Brillouin zone, including high-energy modes in outer regions as well as…
We study the competition between antiferromagnetic order and valence bond solid formation in a two-dimensional frustrated spin-1/2 model. The J1-J2 model on the square lattice is further frustrated by introducing products of three-spin…
We study the phase diagram of the 2D $J_1$-$J_1'$-$J_2$ spin-1/2 Heisenberg model by means of the coupled cluster method. The effect of the coupling $J_1'$ on the Neel and stripe states is investigated. We find that the quantum critical…
We provide strong evidence of the spin-nematic state in a paradigmatic ferro-antiferromagnetic $J_1$--$J_2$ model using analytical and density-matrix renormalization group methods. In zero field, the attraction of spin-flip pairs leads to a…
We present the zero temperature phase diagram of a Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a frustrated triangular lattice with nearest neighbor ($J_1$) and next nearest neighbor ($J_2$) interactions, in a magnetic field. We show that the classical…
The magnetic properties of the two-dimensional $J_{1}-J_{2}$ model with both exchanges $J_{1}$ and $J_{2}$ being antiferromagnetic and a single-ion anisotropy at nonzero temperature are investigated. As $J_{2}/J_{1}<1/2$ ($>1/2$), only the…
Previous studies of the $S=1/2$ triangular-lattice $J_1$--$J_2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet have inferred the existence of a non-magnetic ground-state phase for an intermediate range of $J_2$, but disagree concerning whether it is a gapped…
