We study the 1D quantum Heisenberg chain with randomly ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic couplings (a model previously studied by approximate strong-disorder RG). We find that, at least for sufficiently large spin $S$, the ground state has…
We analyze the effects of a trimerized modulation in a quantum spin $S=\frac12$ zig-zag ladder at the magnetization plateau $M=1/3$. Such periodicity is argued to be stemmed from lattice deformations by phonons. The interplay between…

The static structure factor S(q) of frustrated spin-1/2 chains with isotropic exchange and a singlet ground state (GS) diverges at wave vector q_m when the GS has quasi-long-range order (QLRO) with periodicity 2\pi/q_m but S(q_m) is finite…
We explore the ground-state physics of two-dimensional spin-$1/2$ $U(1)$ quantum link models, one of the simplest non-trivial lattice gauge theories with fermionic matter within experimental reach for quantum simulations. Whereas in the…
We determine the phase diagram of the half-filled two-leg ladder both at weak and strong coupling, taking into account the Cu d_{x^2-y^2} and the O p_x and p_y orbitals. At weak coupling, renormalization group flows are interpreted with the…
We report density-matrix renormalization group calculations of spin gaps in the quarter-filled correlated two-leg rectangular ladder with bond-dimerization along the legs of the ladder. In the small rung-coupling region, dimerization along…
