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…

The entanglement entropy of a free scalar field in its ground state is dominated by an area law term. It is noteworthy, however, that the study of entanglement in scalar field theory has not advanced far beyond the ground state. In this…

Resonating Valence Bond states are quantum spin liquids, having low energy spin-half (spinon) or spin-1 excitations. Although spins are `disordered', they posses subtle topological orders and some times chiral orders. RVB states are easily…
