Abstract

We study the spin-correlation functions of the one-dimensional S=1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg-Ising model by the large-cluster-decomposition Monte Carlo method. It is found that this model shows a second-order transition at the anisotropy parameter ${\ensuremath{\lambda}}_{c}$=1.167\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.007. The obtained critical exponents (\ensuremath{\eta}=0.253\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.002, \ensuremath{\beta}=0.126\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.007, \ensuremath{\nu}=0.98\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02) strongly suggest that this transition belongs to the same universality class as the two-dimensional Ising model.

Spin correlation function of theS=1antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain by the large-cluster-decomposition Monte Carlo method

K. Nomura

We calculate correlation functions of a one-dimensional spin S=1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model by the large-cluster-decomposition Monte Carlo method. We find that the correlation functions are well approximated by modified Bessel functions. This result supports Haldane's conjecture, and the correlation length agrees with that obtained from spin-wave theory using elementary excitation data.

Quantum criticality in dimerised anisotropic spin-1 chains

Satoshi Ejima, Florian Lange, Holger Fehske

Abstract Applying the (infinite) density-matrix renormalisation group technique, we explore the effect of an explicit dimerisation on the ground-state phase diagram of the spin-1 XXZ chain with single-ion anisotropy D. We demonstrate that the Haldane phase between large-D and antiferromagnetic phases survives up to a critical dimerisation only. As a further new characteristic the dimerisation induces a direct continuous Ising quantum phase transition between the large-D and antiferromagnetic phases with central charge $$c=1/2$$ c = 1 / 2 , which terminates at a critical end-point where $$c=7/10$$ c = 7 / 10 . Calculating the critical exponents of the order parameter, neutral gap and spin–spin-correlation function, we find $$\beta =1/8$$ β = 1 / 8 (1/24), $$\nu =1$$ ν = 1 (5/9), and $$\eta =1/4$$ η = 1 / 4 (3/20), respectively, which proves the Ising (tricritical Ising) universality class in accordance with field-theoretical predictions.

Spontaneous staggered magnetization in antiferromagnetic Heisenberg-Ising chains

Juan Pablo Neirotti, Mário J. de Oliveira

We calculate numerically the spontaneous staggered magnetization and susceptibility of the ground state of quantum antiferromagnetic Heisenberg-Ising chains. We use a zero-temperature Monte Carlo method and consider the cases of spin 1 and 2. As a function of the anisotropy parameter, the magnetization vanishes continuously at a critical point whose critical exponents for both cases are found to be in agreement with those of the two-dimensional Ising model.

Spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets

Biao Hao, Chang-De Gong

We study the long-range behavior of spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets with both Ising anisotropy and spatial anisotropy. We represent the spin operators in terms of spin-density operators and spin-phase operators. Then for spin-1/2 antiferromagnets, within a simple harmonic approximation, we obtain expressions for the spin correlations in the ground state. For the one-dimensional linear chain, we find that the two leading terms in spin correlation are (-1${)}^{\mathit{r}}$c/${\mathit{r}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}$-${\mathit{c}}_{1}$/${\mathit{r}}^{2}$ for large distance r. The power \ensuremath{\eta} depends on the Ising anisotropy, and \ensuremath{\eta}=0.405 at XY point and \ensuremath{\eta}=1.062 at Heisenberg point. For the two-dimensional square lattice, there is long-range staggered magnetization, and the dependence of magnetization on Ising anisotropy is given. For the crossover from one-dimensional linear chain to two-dimensional square lattice, we find that the disorder-order transition occurs as long as the interchain coupling is introduced. We believe that our method gives a unified approach to the long-range behavior of spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets.

Correlation functions and critical exponents in the one-dimensional anisotropict-Jmodel

Thomas Pruschke, Hiroyuki Shiba

The momentum distribution and the spin-correlation functions are studied for the one-dimensional t-J model, in which the exchange interaction J is anisotropic. The discussion is focused on the nontrivial limit that J is much smaller than t. In this limit the exact ground-state wave function is a product of the spinless-fermion Slater determinant and the spin-wave function of the s=1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnet. With this wave function, correlation functions are calculated explicitly for finite but large systems and the nature of their singularities is studied. It is found that for the XY-like anisotropy the critical behavior of correlation functions can be described by the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, while for the Ising-like anisotropy the model seems to belong to the universality class of the Luther-Emery model of the one-dimensional electron gas.

Critical exponent η in S =1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with alternating interaction

Shoji Yamamoto

Low-temperature properties of S=1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with alternating interaction, scrH=${\mathit{Jtsum}}_{\mathit{i}}$[1-(-1${)}^{\mathit{i}}$\ensuremath{\delta}]${\mathrm{S}}_{\mathit{i}}$\ensuremath{\cdot}${\mathrm{S}}_{\mathit{i}+1}$, are studied by a quantum Monte Carlo method. Spatial distributions of the spin correlation function 〈${\mathit{S}}_{1}^{\mathit{z}}$${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 and the local magnetic moment 〈${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 are visualized as a function of \ensuremath{\delta}. The continuous phase transition at \ensuremath{\delta}=0.25, which was indicated by several authors, is confirmed by the \ensuremath{\delta} dependence of the low-lying level structure, the divergence of the correlation length, and also the collapse of the edge states. The critical exponent \ensuremath{\eta}, governing the power-law decay of the spin correlation function, is estimated to be 0.99\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05. The present result raises a possibility that the variety of quantum spin chains including not only the half-odd-integer-S ones but also the integer-S ones may be described in terms of the generic critical theory.
