We consider asymmetric spin-1/2 two-leg ladders with non-equal antiferromagnetic (AF) couplings J_|| and \kappa J_|| along legs (\kappa <= 1) and ferromagnetic rung coupling, J_\perp. This model is characterized by a gap \Delta in the…
The temperature dependence of the uniform susceptibility and the ground state energy of antiferromagnetic Heisenberg ladders with up to 6 legs has been calculated, using the Monte Carlo loop algorithm. The susceptibilities of…
The effects of non-magnetic impurities randomly doped into a two-leg Heisenberg spin ladder are investigated. Using the continuous time quantum Monte Carlo loop algorithm we calculate the uniform and staggered susceptibilities of such a…
We investigate the heat conductivity $\kappa$ of the Heisenberg spin-1/2 ladder at finite temperature covering the entire range of inter-chain coupling $J_\perp$, by using several numerical methods and perturbation theory within the…
A two-leg quenched random bond disordered antiferromagnetic spin$-1/2$ Heisenberg ladder system is investigated by means of stochastic series expansion (SSE) quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method. Thermal properties of the uniform and staggered…
We study antiferromagnetic spin--1/2 Heisenberg ladders, comprised of $n_c$ chains ($2 \leq n_c \leq 6$) with ratio $J_{\bot}/J_{\|}$ of inter-- to intra--chain couplings. From measurements of the correlation function we deduce the…
We present numerical results for the magnetic susceptibility of a Heisenberg antiferromagnetic spin ladder, as a function of temperature and the spin-spin interaction strengths $J_\perp$ and $J_{||}$. These are contrasted with new bulk…
We study the spin-1/2 trellis lattice Heisenberg model, a coupled spin ladder system, both by perturbation around the dimer limit and by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We discuss the influence of the inter-ladder coupling on the spin gap…
The properties of antiferromagnetic Heisenberg $S=\frac{1}{2}$ ladders with 2, 3, and 4 chains are expanded in the ratio of the intra- and interchain coupling constants. A simple mapping procedure is introduced to relate the 4 and 2-chain…
We study a model of two weakly coupled isotropic spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains with an antiferromagnetic coupling along the chains. It is shown that the system always has a spectral gap. For the case of identical chains the model in the…
We have carried out extensive series studies, at T=0 and at high temperatures, of 2-chain and 3-chain spin-half ladder systems with antiferromagnetic intrachain and both antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic interchain couplings. Our results…
The Heisenberg spin ladder is studied in the semiclassical limit, via a mapping to the nonlinear $\sigma$ model. Different treatments are needed if the inter-chain coupling $K$ is small, intermediate or large. For intermediate coupling a…
Spin gaps in coupled $t$-$J$ ladders are investigated by exact diagonalization of small clusters up to 4$\times$8 sites. At half-filling, the numerical results for the triplet excitation spectrum are in very good agreement with a second…
In this paper, we study the thermodynamic properties of spin-$1/2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg ladders by means of the stochastic series expansion quantum Monte Carlo technique. This includes the thermal properties of the specific heat,…
An effective low-energy description for multi-leg spin-1/2 Heisenberg ladders with an odd number of legs is proposed. Using a newly developed Monte Carlo loop algorithm and exact diagonalization techniques, the uniform and staggered…
We report a quantum Monte Carlo study of the thermodynamic properties of arrays of spin ladders with various widths ($n$), coupled via a weak inter-ladder exchange coupling $\alpha J$, where $J$ is the intra-ladder coupling both along and…
An S=1/2 anti-ferromagnetic spin chain is mapped to the two-flavor massless Schwinger model, which admits a gapless mode. In a spin ladder system rung interactions break the chiral invariance. These systems are solved by bosonization. If…
An interesting feature of spin-1/2 chains with a gap is that they undergo a commensurate-incommensurate transition in the presence of an external magnetic field $H$. The system is in a gapless incommensurate regime for all values of the…
We study two Heisenberg spin-1/2 chains coupled by a frustrating ``zigzag'' interaction. We are particularly interested in the regime of weak interchain coupling, which is difficult to analyse by either numerical or analytical methods.…
The $T=0$ spin stiffness $\rho _{s}$ and the transverse susceptibility $\chi _{\perp }$ of the square lattice half-filled Hubbard model are calculated as a function of the Hubbard parameter ratio $U/t$ by series expansions around the Ising…
