Dirac Spin Liquid on the Spin- Triangular Heisenberg Antiferromagnet

S Hu, W Zhu, S Eggert, YC He - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We study the spin liquid candidate of the spin-1/2 J 1-J 2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the
triangular lattice by means of density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulations. By …

Unifying description of competing orders in two-dimensional quantum magnets

XY Song, C Wang, A Vishwanath, YC He - Nature communications, 2019 - nature.com
Quantum magnets provide the simplest example of strongly interacting quantum matter, yet
they continue to resist a comprehensive understanding above one spatial dimension. We …

Universal features of entanglement entropy in the honeycomb Hubbard model

J D'Emidio, R Orús, N Laflorencie, F De Juan - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
The entanglement entropy is a unique probe to reveal universal features of strongly
interacting many-body systems. In two or more dimensions these features are subtle, and …

From spinon band topology to the symmetry quantum numbers of monopoles in Dirac spin liquids

XY Song, YC He, A Vishwanath, C Wang - Physical Review X, 2020 - APS
The interplay of symmetry and topology has been at the forefront of recent progress in
quantum matter. Here, we uncover an unexpected connection between band topology and …

Variational Monte Carlo Study of the -Magnetization Plateau in Kagome Antiferromagnets

LW He, SL Yu, JX Li - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
Motivated by very recent experimental observations of the 1/9-magnetization plateaus in
YCu 3 (OH) 6+ x Br 3-x and YCu 3 (OD) 6+ x Br 3-x, our study delves into the magnetic-field …

Pinch-points to half-moons and up in the stars: The kagome skymap

D Kiese, F Ferrari, N Astrakhantsev, N Niggemann… - Physical Review …, 2023 - APS
Pinch point singularities, associated with flat band magnetic excitations, are tell-tale

Spin thermal Hall conductivity of a kagome antiferromagnet

H Doki, M Akazawa, HY Lee, JH Han, K Sugii… - Physical review …, 2018 - APS
A clear thermal Hall signal (κ xy) was observed in the spin-liquid phase of the S= 1/2
kagome antiferromagnet Ca kapellasite [CaCu 3 (OH) 6 Cl 2· 0.6 H 2 O]. We found that κ xy …

Gapless spin liquid behavior in a kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet with randomly distributed hexagons of alternate bonds

J Liu, L Yuan, X Li, B Li, K Zhao, H Liao, Y Li - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
We demonstrate that the single crystal of YCu 3 [OH (D)] 6.5 Br 2.5 (YCOB) is a kagome
Heisenberg antiferromagnet without evident orphan spins (≪ 0.8%). The site mixing …

Dimerization tendencies of the pyrochlore Heisenberg antiferromagnet: A functional renormalization group perspective
