We study a one-dimensional electron liquid embedded in a 2D antiferromagnetic insulator, and coupled to it via a weak antiferromagnetic spin exchange interaction. We argue that this model may qualitatively capture the physics of a single…

We study the ground-state properties of frustrated Heisenberg ferrimagnetic ladders with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions and two types of alternating sublattice spins. In the limit of strong rung couplings, we show that the mixed…
An effective low energy field theory is developed for a system of two chains. The main novelty of the approach is that it allows to treat generic intrachain repulsive interactions of arbitrary strength. The chains are coupled by a direct…
The low-energy charge excitations of a doped antiferromagnetic ladder are modeled by a system of interacting spinless fermions that live on the same ladder. A relatively large spin gap is assumed to ``freeze out'' all spin fluctuations. We…
Motivated by the co-existing charge and spin order found in strongly correlated ladder systems, we study an effective pseudospin model on a coupled two-leg ladder. A bosonisation analysis yields a rich phase diagram showing Wigner/Peierls…

We study the ground-state spin correlations in the gapless incommensurate regime of a S=1/2 XXZ chain and a two-leg antiferromagnetic ladder under a magnetic field, in which the gapless excitations form a Tomonaga-Luttinger (TL) liquid. We…
The ground state property of the alternating spin ladder is studied in the case that the system involves an antiferromagnetic intra-chain interaction as well as two kinds of inter-chain interactions; one is between spins of the same…
The antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin systems on the three-leg ladder are investigated. Periodic boundary condition is imposed in the rung direction. The system has an excitation gap for all antiferromagnetic inter-chain coupling…
Many one--dimensional quantum systems, in particular interacting electron and spin systems, can be described a Luttinger liquids. Here, some basic ideas of this picture of one--dimensional systems are briefly reviewed. I then discuss the…

We construct frustrated antiferromagnetic spin ladders with m chains for which the exact ground state can be determined in a particular parameter regime. The excitation spectrum is shown rigorously to be gapless ( with gap ) for odd ( even…
The interplay of spin and motional degrees of freedom forms a key element in explaining stripe formation accompanied by sublattice reversal of local antiferromagnetic ordering in interacting fermionic models. A long-standing question aims…
