I introduce two continuous transformations between the $S=1$ Heisenberg chain and the antiferromagnetic $S=1/2$ Heisenberg ladder. Both transformations couple diagonally situated {\it next nearest neighbor} $S=1/2$'s to form each $S=1$.…

We present an antiferromagnetic quantum spin-1/2 model on honeycomb lattice. It has two parts, one of which is the usual nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model. The other part is a certain multiple spin interaction term, introduced by us, which…

We investigate the build-up of quasi-long-range order in the XX chain with transverse magnetic field at finite size. As the field is varied, the ground state of the system displays multiple level crossings producing a sequence of…

The isotropic limit of spin systems with orbital degeneracy is shown to have global SU(4) symmetry. On many 2D lattices, the ground state does not posses long range order, which may explain the observed spin liquid properties of $LiNiO_2$.…

We consider a two-chain, spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin ladder in an external magnetic field H. The spin ladder is known to undergo second order quantum phase transitions (QPTs) at two critical values, Hc1 and Hc2, of the…

Disorder in magnetic systems typically suppresses long-range order, promoting short-range states such as spin glasses and magnetic clusters. This is particularly prominent in high-entropy materials, characterized by the random distributions…
