Twenty-five years after the first proposal, the question whether the ground state of a frustrated spin-half system is well described by a spin-liquid Resonating Valence Bond (RVB) wave function is still controversial. A physically…
The Resonating Valence Bond (RVB) theory for two-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets is shown to be the correct paradigm for large enough ``quantum frustration''. This scenario, proposed long time ago but never confirmed by microscopic…
