Spin squeezing protocols successfully generate entangled many-body quantum states, the key pillars of the second quantum revolution. In our recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 090403 (2022)] we showed that spin squeezing described by the…
The fundamental excitations in an antiferromagnetic chain of spins-1/2 are spinons, de-confined fractional quasiparticles that when combined in pairs, form a triplet excitation continuum. In an Ising-like spin chain the continuum is gapped…
Combining quantum Monte Carlo simulations with the maximum entropy method, we study the dynamical structure factor $S(k,\omega)$ of spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with various random bond distributions. We emphasize the…
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…
The antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin chain with integer spin has short-range magnetic order and an excitation energy gap above the ground state. This so-called Haldane gap is proportional to the exchange coupling $J$ of the Heisenberg…
We analyse the ground-state energy and correlation energy of the Heisenberg model as a function of spin, both in the ferromagnetic and in the antiferromagnetic case, and in one, two and three dimensions. First, we present a comparative…
We study Heisenberg spin-1/2 and spin-1 chains with alternating ferromagnetic ($J_1^F$) and antiferromagnetic ($J_1^A$) nearest-neighbor interactions and a ferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor interaction ($J_2^F$). In this model frustration…
The Heisenberg model for S=1/2 describes the interacting spins of electrons localized on lattice sites due to strong repulsion. It is the simplest strong-coupling model in condensed matter physics with wide-spread applications. Its…
We study the magnetic excitation spectrum of the S=1 quantum Heisenberg spin chain with Hamiltonian : H = sum_i cos(theta) S_i S_i+1 + sin(theta) (S_i S_i+1)^2. We focus on the range -pi/4 < theta < +pi/4 where the spin chain is in the…
Observing constituent particles with fractional quantum numbers in confined and deconfined states is an interesting and challenging problem in quantum many-body physics. Here we further explore a computational scheme [Y. Tang and A. W.…
We present the theory of the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect between a Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain and a conductor. The effect consists of the generation of a spin current across the spin chain-conductor interface in response to the…
We predict that spin-waves in an ordered square quantum antiferromagnet in a transverse magnetic field (h) may demonstrate three modes of spin excitations. Starting from the self-consistent rotation-invariant Green's function method, a new…
Spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chains are excellent one-dimensional platforms for exploring quantum magnetic states and quasiparticle fractionalization. Understanding its quantum magnetism and quasiparticle excitation at the atomic…
The ground state of a spinor Bose liquid is ferromagnetic, while the softest excitation above the ground state is the magnon mode. The dispersion relation of the magnon in a one-dimensional liquid is periodic in the wavenumber q with the…
We explore the physics of a spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain with Kondo interaction, $J_k$, to a two-dimensional electron gas. At weak $J_k$ the problem maps onto a Heisenberg chain locally coupled to a dissipative Ohmic bath. At the decoupled…
An anisotropic integrable spin chain, consisting of spins $s=1$ and $s=\frac{1}{2}$, is investigated \cite{devega}. It is characterized by two real parameters $\bar{c}$ and $\tilde{c}$, the coupling constants of the spin interactions. For…
A variational approach for constructing an effective particle description of the low-energy physics of one-dimensional quantum spin chains is presented. Based on the matrix product state formalism, we compute the one- and two-particle…
We derive the representation of the two-spinon wavefunction for the Haldane-Shastry model in terms of the spinon coordinates. This result allows us to rigorously analyze spinon interaction and its physical effects. We show that spinons…
We have investigated the spin dynamics in the strongly correlated chain copper oxide SrCuO$_2$ for energies up to $\gtrsim 0.6$ eV using inelastic neutron scattering. We observe an acoustic band of magnetic excitations which is well…
We consider the highly anisotropic ferromagnetic spin 1/2 Heisenberg chain with periodic boundary conditions. In each sector of constant total z component of the spin, we develop convergent expansions for the lowest band of eigenvalues and…
