A recently derived general formula and older numerical results are combined to deduce the behavior of the transverse correlation exponent for the spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain in an applied magnetic field: eta = 1/2 - (2.0)m…
We study a generalized quantum spin ladder with staggered long range interactions that decay as a power-law with exponent $\alpha$. Using large scale quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) and density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations, we…
Spin nematic (SN) is a magnetic analog of classical liquid crystals, a fourth state of matter exhibiting characteristics of both liquid and solid. Particularly intriguing is a valence-bond SN, in which spins are quantum entangled to form a…
We study the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain with both dimerization and frustration. The classical ground state has three phases: a Neel phase, a spiral phase and a colinear phase. In each phase, we discuss a non-linear sigma model field…
We examine the ground state and the excitations of an one-dimensional Heisenberg spin 1/2 antiferromagnet with alternating dimers and four-spin plaquettes (dimer-plaquette chain). The properties of the system depend on the competing dimer…
We investigate the low-temperature properties of the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with bond-alternation by the quantum Monte Carlo method (loop algorithm). The strength of bond-alternation at the gapless point is estimated as…
The two-dimensional antiferromagnetic S=1/2 Heisenberg model with random bond dilution is studied using quantum Monte Carlo simulation at the percolation threshold (50% of the bonds removed). Finite-size scaling of the staggered structure…
The critical behaviour of anisotropic Heisenberg models with two kinds of antiferromagnetically exchange-coupled centers are studied numerically by using finite-size calculations and conformal invariance. These models exhibit the…
We use linked-cluster series expansions, both at T=0 and high temperature, to analyse the phase structure of the spin-$\half$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet with competing first and second-neighbor interactions on the 3-dimensional…
We study the $T=0$ phase diagrams of models of bilayers of $S=1/2$ square lattices antiferromagnets with SU(2) Heisenberg symmetry that have 2, 4, and 6 spin exchanges. We study two families of bilayer models with distinct internal…
We study the zero-temperature phase diagram of a square-lattice $S=1/2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet with two types of regularly distributed nearest-neighbor exchange constants, $J_1>0$ (antiferromagnetic) and $-\infty < J_2 < \infty $, using…
We resolve the nature of the quantum phase transition between a N\'eel antiferromagnet and a valence-bond solid in two-dimensional spin-1/2 magnets. We study a class of $J$-$Q$ models, in which Heisenberg exchange $J$ competes with…
The ground-state phase diagram of $S=2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with coexisting uniform and alternating single-site anisotropies is investigated by the numerical exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group…
We explore the quantum phase transitions between two ordered states in the infinite dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model at half filling. Our study is based on the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) combined with the numerical renormalization…
Boson mapping techniques are developed to describe valence bond correlations in quantum spin chains. Applying the method to the alternating bond hamiltonian for a generic spin chain, we derive an analytic expression for the transition…
We study the ground-state properties of weakly frustrated Heisenberg ferrimagnetic chains with nearest and next-nearest neighbor antiferromagnetic exchange interactions and two types of alternating sublattice spins S_1 > S_2, using 1/S…
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…
A novel approach for studying phase transitions in systems with quantum degrees of freedom is discussed. Starting from the microscopic hamiltonian of a quantum model, we first derive a set of exact differential equations for the free energy…
We study phenomenologically on the basis of two bilinearly coupled Heisen- berg models the phase diagram of some ferrimagnetic substances. Calculations are performed with the help of Landau energy obtained through applying the…
Bond-dilution effects on spin-1/2 spin-gapped Heisenberg antiferromagnets of coupled alternating chains on a square lattice are investigated by means of the quantum Monte Carlo method. It is found that, in contrast with the site-diluted…
