Abstract

The ground state phase diagram of an XXZ chain with asymmetric second-neighbour interactions is studied. We first prove that this model has the doubly degenerate exact dimer ground state under some conditions. Then, by using the level spectroscopy method, we calculate the ground state phase diagram and find that the dependence of the dimer–fluid critical line on the asymmetric interactions is much stronger than those of the dimer–Neel critical line and the ferro-fluid first-order transition line. In order to understand this result, we analyse eigenvectors of the ground state and excitations characterizing each of phases, and show that only the doublet excitation can be used to detect the asymmetric interactions.

Ground-State Phase Diagram of the XXZ Model on a Railroad–Trestle Lattice with Asymmetric Leg Interactions

Masawo Nakane, Yoshiyuki Fukumoto, Akihide Oguchi

Using the bosonization and level spectroscopy methods, we study the ground-state phase diagram of a XXZ antiferromagnet on a railroad-trestle lattice with asymmetric leg interactions. It is shown that the asymmetry does not change the dimer/Neel transition line significantly, which agrees with the expectation based on a naive bosonization procedure, but it does change the dimer/spin-fluid transition line. To understand this observation, we analyze eigenvectors of the ground state, dimer excitation, doublet excitation and Neel excitation, and find that only the doublet excitation is affected by the asymmetric interaction.

Critical properties of S= 1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ chain with next-nearest-neighbour interactions

K. Nomura, Kazuki Okamoto

We investigate numerically the critical lines and the critical properties of the fluid-dimer and the Neel-dimer transitions of the S= 1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ chain with next-nearest interactions, and we confirm that the universality class of this model belongs to the quantum sine-Gordon model, as is expected from the bosonization. The method which we use in this paper to calculate the critical lines is free from the logarithmic corrections on the Kosterlitz-Thouless (K-T)-type transition line, which have made the K-T critical point difficult to obtain. By the use of this method, it is possible to determine the K-T critical line with high precision from small size data, and to identify the universality class.

Phase Diagram ofS=1/2 AntiferromagneticXXZChainwith Next-Nearest-Neighbor Interactions

K. Nomura, Kiyomi Okamoto

We numerically investigate the critical lines of the fluid-dimer and the Néel-dimer transitions of the S =1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ chain with next-nearest interactions, assuming the asymptotic behavior to be determined by the quantum sine-Gordon model. Our result is different from that of Tonegawa, Harada and Kaburagi, who used the phenomenological renormalization group (PRG). We show that the PRG may lead to a false critical point when it is applied to the Kosterlitz-Thouless-type transition.

Ground-state phase diagram of S=1 XXZ chains with uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy

Wei Chen, Kazuo Hida, B. C. Sanctuary

One-dimensional $S=1$ $\mathrm{XXZ}$ chains with uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy are studied by numerical exact diagonalization of finite-size systems. The numerical data are analyzed using conformal field theory, the level spectroscopy, phenomenological renormalization-group, and finite-size scaling method. We thus present a quantitatively reliable ground-state phase diagram of this model. The ground states of this model contain the Haldane phase, large-D phase, N\'eel phase, two $\mathrm{XY}$ phases, and the ferromagnetic phase. There are four different types of transitions between these phases: the Brezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless-type transitions, the Gaussian-type transitions, the Ising-type transitions, and the first-order transitions. The locations of these critical lines are accurately determined.

Phase diagram of theXXZchain with next-nearest-neighbor interactions

Rolando D. Somma, Armando A. Aligia

We calculate the quantum phase diagram of an XXZ chain with nearest-neighbor (NN) ${J}_{1}$ and next-NN exchange ${J}_{2}$ with anisotropies ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}$ and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{2},$ respectively. In particular we consider the case ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}=\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{2},$ to interpolate between the XX chain $({\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{i}=0)$ and the isotropic model with ferromagnetic phase ${J}_{2}.$ For ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}<\ensuremath{-}1,$ a ferromagnetic phase and two antiferromagnetic phases exist. For $|{\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{i}|<1,$ the boundary between the dimer and spin fluid phases is determined by the method of crossing of excitation spectra. For large ${J}_{2}{/J}_{1},$ this method seems to indicate the existence of a second spin fluid critical phase. However, an analysis of the spin stiffness and magnetic susceptibility for ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}={\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{2}=1$ suggests that a small gap is present.

Ground-state phase diagram of a spin- 12 frustrated ferromagnetic XXZ chain: Haldane dimer phase and gapped/gapless chiral phases

Shunsuke Furukawa, Masahiro Sato, Shigeki Onoda +1 more

The ground-state phase diagram of a spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ chain with competing ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor (${J}_{1}<0$) and antiferromagnetic second-neighbor (${J}_{2}>0$) exchange couplings is studied by means of the infinite time evolving block decimation algorithm and effective field theories. For the SU(2)-symmetric (Heisenberg) case, we show that the nonmagnetic phase in the range $\ensuremath{-}4<{J}_{1}/{J}_{2}<0$ has a small but finite ferromagnetic dimer order. We argue that this spontaneous dimer order is associated with effective spin-1 degrees of freedom on dimerized bonds, which collectively form a valence bond solid state as in the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain (the Haldane spin chain). We thus call this phase the Haldane dimer phase. With easy-plane anisotropy, the model exhibits a variety of phases including the vector chiral phase with gapless excitations and the even-parity dimer and N\'eel phases with gapped excitations, in addition to the Haldane dimer phase. Furthermore, we show the existence of gapped phases with coexisting orders in narrow regions that intervene between the gapless chiral phase and any one of Haldane dimer, even-parity dimer, and N\'eel phases. Possible implications for quasi-one-dimensional edge-sharing cuprates are discussed.
