We study the phase diagram, ground state properties, and excitation gaps of a frustrated spin-Peierls chain, i.e. a spin-Peierls chain with both nearest neighbor exchange $J_1$ and next nearest neighbor exchange $J_2$. The phase diagram is…
We study the spin-$1\over2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet with an antiferromagnetic $J_3$ (third nearest neighbor) interaction on a square lattice. We numerically diagonalize this ``$J_1$-$J_3$'' model on clusters up to 32-sites and search for…
