We construct the singlet Hilbert space associated with addition of SU(3) generators. This corresponds to the solution of Gauss law in lattice QCD. The normalized basis states are explicitly constructed using Schwinger Bosons. Further, we…
In the framework of the Schwinger boson representation for the su(2)-algebra, the closed form is derived for the total spin eigenstates which result from the coupling of n su(2)-spins. In order to demonstrate its usefulness, the orthogonal…
We study two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnets with additional multi-spin interactions which can drive the system into a valence-bond solid state. For standard SU(2) spins, we consider both four- and six-spin interactions. We find…
We consider the valence-bond-solid ground state of the q-deformed higher-spin AKLT model (q-VBS state). We investigate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix (G matrix), which is constructed from the matrix product representation of…

Computing the entanglement of formation of a bipartite state is generally difficult, but special symmetries of a state can simplify the problem. For instance, this allows one to determine the entanglement of formation of Werner states and…
We introduce a variational state for one-dimensional two-orbital Hubbard models that intuitively explains the recent computational discovery of pairing in these systems when hole doped. Our Ansatz is an optimized linear superposition of…
We study generalizations of the singlet-sector amplitude-product (AP) states in the valence-bond basis of S=1/2 quantum spin systems. In the standard AP states, the weight of a tiling of the system into valence bonds (singlets of two spins)…
We propose a general necessary condition for a spin chain with SO(3) spin-rotation symmetry to be gapped. Specifically, we prove that the ground state(s) of an SO(3)-symmetric gapped spin chain must be spin singlet(s), and the expectation…
A generalized model of Heisenberg quantum antiferromagnet on an arbitrary graph is constructed so that the VBS is the unique ground state. The norm of the base state and equal time multi point correlation functions are computed in terms of…
Given a countable set of sites and a collection of flip rates at each site, we give a sufficient condition on the long-range dependancies of the flip rates ensuring the well-definedness of the corresponding spin system. This hypothesis has…
We present a valence bond theory of the spin-S quantum Heisenberg model. For nonfrustracting, local exchange and dimension d > 1, it predicts a resonating ground state with bond amplitudes h(r) ~ (a^2+r^2)^(-p/2) and decay exponent p=d+1.…
The qualitative difference in low-energy properties of spin $S$ quantum antiferromagnetic chains with integer $S$ and half-odd-integer $S$ discovered by Haldane can be intuitively understood in terms of the valence-bond picture proposed by…
We calculate spin correlation functions using IBM quantum processors, accessed online. We demonstrate the rotational invariance of the singlet state, interesting properties of the triplet states, and surprising features of a state of three…
Quantum spin-lattice systems in low dimensions exhibit a variety of interesting zero-temperature phases, some of which show non-classical (i.e., non-magnetic) long-range orders, such as dimer or trimer valence-bond order. These…
We construct a class of projected entangled pair states (PEPS) which is exactly the resonating valence bond (RVB) wavefunctions endowed with both short range and long range valence bonds. With an energetically preferred RVB pattern, the…
We give the derivation of the previously announced analytic expression for the correlation function of three heavy non-BPS operators in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory at weak coupling. The three operators belong to three different su(2)…
We report on the controlled creation of a valence bond state of delocalized effective-spin singlet and triplet dimers by means of a bichromatic optical superlattice. We demonstrate a coherent coupling between the singlet and triplet states…
The O(n) spin model in two dimensions may equivalently be formulated as a loop model, and then mapped to a height model which is conjectured to flow under the renormalization group to a conformal field theory (CFT). At the critical point,…
We investigate entanglement properties in the ground state of the open/periodic SU($n$) generalized valence-bond-solid state consisting of representations of SU($n$). We obtain exact expression for the reduced density matrix of a block of…
