We investigate the ground state of the $J_1$-$J_2$ spin-1/2 chain with $J_1<0$ and $J_2>0$ in the case that the nearest-neighbor $J_1$ interaction in the $z$-direction has a weak anisotropy as $J_1 (1-\alpha)$. We perform a perturbational…

We consider the ground states of the ferromagnetic XXZ chain with spin up boundary conditions in sectors with a fixed number of down spins. This forces the existence of a droplet of down spins in the system. We find the exact energy and the…

We construct the exact ground state for an antiferromagnetic spin-3/2 model on the two-leg ladder as an optimum ground state. The ground state contains a discrete parameter "sigma"=+/-1 and a continuous parameter "a" which controls z-axis…
