Computational studies of quantum spin systems

AW Sandvik - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010 - pubs.aip.org
These lecture notes introduce quantum spin systems and several computational methods for
studying their ground‐state and finite‐temperature properties. Symmetry‐breaking and …

Plaquette Ordered Phase and Quantum Phase Diagram in the Spin- Square Heisenberg Model

SS Gong, W Zhu, DN Sheng, OI Motrunich… - Physical review letters, 2014 - APS
We study the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the square lattice with first-and second-
neighbor antiferromagnetic interactions J 1 and J 2, which possesses a nonmagnetic region …

Gapless quantum spin liquid and global phase diagram of the spin-1/2 J1-J2 square antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model

WY Liu, SS Gong, YB Li, D Poilblanc, WQ Chen, ZC Gu - Science bulletin, 2022 - Elsevier
The nature of the zero-temperature phase diagram of the spin-1/2 J 1-J 2 Heisenberg model
on a square lattice has been debated in the past three decades, and it remains one of the …

The spin-1/2 J1–J2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice: Exact diagonalization for N=40 spins

J Richter, J Schulenburg - The European Physical Journal B, 2010 - Springer
We present numerical exact results for the ground state and the low-lying excitations for the
spin-1/2 J 1-J 2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on finite square lattices of up to N= 40 sites …

frustrated two-dimensional Heisenberg model: Random phase approximation and functional renormalization group

J Reuther, P Wölfle - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2010 - APS
We study the ground-state properties of the two-dimensional spin-1/2 J 1-J 2 Heisenberg
model on a square lattice, within diagrammatic approximations using an auxiliary-fermion …

Approximating strongly correlated wave functions with correlator product states

HJ Changlani, JM Kinder, CJ Umrigar, GKL Chan - Physical Review B …, 2009 - APS
We describe correlator product states, a class of numerically efficient many-body wave
functions to describe strongly correlated wave functions in any dimension. Correlator …

Ground-state properties of quantum many-body systems: entangled-plaquette states and variational Monte Carlo

F Mezzacapo, N Schuch, M Boninsegni… - New Journal of …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
We propose a new ansatz for the ground-state wave function of quantum many-body
systems on a lattice. The key idea is to cover the lattice with plaquettes and obtain a state …

Phase separation and frustrated square lattice magnetism of NaVOPOF

AA Tsirlin, R Nath, AM Abakumov, Y Furukawa… - Physical Review B …, 2011 - APS
Crystal structure, electronic structure, and magnetic behavior of the spin-1 2 quantum
magnet Na 1.5 VOPO 4 F 0.5 are reported. The disorder of Na atoms leads to a sequence of …

Phase diagram of the quantum Heisenberg model for arbitrary spin

A Rückriegel, D Tarasevych, P Kopietz - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
We use the spin functional renormalization group to investigate the J 1-J 2 quantum
Heisenberg model on a square lattice. By incorporating sum rules associated with the fixed …

Symmetry-projected cluster mean-field theory applied to spin systems

A Papastathopoulos-Katsaros… - The Journal of …, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
We introduce S z spin-projection based on cluster mean-field theory and apply it to the
ground state of strongly correlated spin systems. In cluster mean-fields, the ground state …
