We have considered and alternating Heisenberg spin chain with nearest-neighbor ($J_1$), next-nearest neighbor ($J_2$) antiferromagnetic couplings along with z-component of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya(DM) ($D_z$) interactions. The Hamiltonian…
The magnetic ground state of the quasi-one-dimensional spin-1 antiferromagnetic chain is sensitive to the relative sizes of the single-ion anisotropy ($D$) and the intrachain ($J$) and interchain ($J'$) exchange interactions. The ratios…
Using an asymptotically exact real space renormalization procedure, we find that the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic spin-1 chain undergoes an impurity driven second order phase transition from the Haldane phase to the random singlet phase, as…
We perform a finite size scaling study of the three-dimensional Heisenberg spin glass in the presence of weak random anisotropic interactions, up to sizes L=32. Anisotropies have a major impact on the phase transition. The chiral-glass…
Kitaev's honeycomb-lattice spin-$1/2$ model has become a paradigmatic example for $\mathbb{Z}_2$ quantum spin liquids, both gapped and gapless. Here we study the fate of these spin-liquid phases in differently stacked bilayer versions of…
We perform a density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) study of the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice to identify the conjectured spin liquid ground state. Exploiting SU(2) spin symmetry, which allows us to keep up to…
We show that the best variational ground state of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Kagome antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with nearest-neighboring exchange coupling(NN-KAFH) is a $Z_{2}$ spin liquid state, rather than the widely believed $U(1)$…
Since strong quantum fluctuations are essential for the emergence of quantum spin liquids, there have been extensive exploration and identification of spin liquid candidates in spin-$1/2$ systems, while such activities are rare in higher…
The dynamical dimer structure factor is an observable probing spin-singlet excitations of quantum magnets distinct from those commonly studied by the spin structure factor. We report the dimer response for the extended spin-$1/2$…
We investigate the impact of the spin-phonon coupling on the S=1/2 Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice. For the pure spin model, there is increasing evidence that the low-energy properties can be correctly described by a Dirac spin…
We reanalyze transfer matrix and Monte Carlo results for the critical Binder cumulant U* of an anisotropic two-dimensional Ising model on a square lattice in a square geometry with periodic boundary conditions. Spins are coupled between…
The $J_1$-$J_2$ spin chain is one of the canonical models of quantum magnetism, and has long been known to host a critical antiferromagnetic phase with power-law decay of spin correlations. We show in this Letter that there are, in fact,…
Motivated by a recent first principles prediction of an anisotropic cubic Dirac semi-metal in a real material Tl(TeMo)$_3$, we study the behavior of electrons tunneling through a potential barrier in such systems. To clearly investigate…
The search for exotic quantum spin liquid states in simple yet realistic spin models remains a central challenge in the field of frustrated quantum magnetism. Here we consider the canonical nearest-neighbor kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet…
We study a generalized honeycomb lattice spin-1/2 Heisenberg model with nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic 2-spin exchange, and competing 4-spin interactions which serve to stabilize a staggered dimer state which breaks lattice rotational…
YbZn$_2$GaO$_5$ is a promising candidate for realizing a quantum spin liquid (QSL) state, particularly owing to its lack of significant site disorder. Pulsed-field magnetometry at 0.5 K shows magnetization saturating near 15 T, with a…
We study an anisotropic version of the $J_1-J_2$ model with S=1. We find a second order transition from a N\'eel $Q=(\pi,\pi)$ phase to a disordered phase with a spin gap.
We have studied the zero and low-temperature behavior of anisotropic alternating antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chains in a transverse magnetic field. Using the analytical spinless fermion approach, the thermodynamic…
We formulate a minimal ansatz for local stress distribution in a solid that includes the possibility of strongly anharmonic short-length motions. We discover a broken-symmetry metastable phase that exhibits an aperiodic, frozen-in stress…
We analyze the strong hexagonal warping of the Dirac cone of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ by angle-resolved photoemission. Along $\overline{\Gamma}$$\overline{\rm M}$, the dispersion deviates from a linear behavior meaning that the Dirac cone is warped…
