The hallmark of highly frustrated systems is the presence of many states close in energy to the ground state. Fluctuations between these states can preclude the emergence of any form of order and lead to the appearance of spin liquids. Even…

We evaluate vertex corrections to $T_c$ on the basis of the antiferromagnetic spin-fluctuation model of the high-$T_c$ superconductivity. It is found that the corrections are attractive in the $d_{x^2-y^2}$ channel, and they become…
In recent work, we argued that a particular algebraic spin liquid (ASL) may be the ground state of the S = 1/2 kagome lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet. This state, which lacks a spin gap, is appealing in light of recent experiments on…

Electrical and magnetic properties of underdoped cuprates in the spin gap phase, a precursor to high Tc superconducting state, is riddled with puzzles. We propose a novel reference state to study this phase, where each hole dopant adds one…
Many low dimensional spin systems with a dimerized or ladder-like antiferromagnetic exchange coupling have a gapped excitation spectrum with magnetic bound states within the spin gap. For spin ladders with an even number of legs the…
