Abstract

The critical exponents of the phase transitions in the ground state of the ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain are determined by means of the numerical diagonalization with emphasis on the boundary between the Haldane phase and the large- D phase. It is found that this phase boundary is a line of continuously varying critical exponents. The results are in agreement with the series expansion results by Yamanaka, Hatsugai and Kohmoto.

Ground-State Phase Diagram of the Spin 1/2 Alternating Heisenberg Chain with Anisotropy on the Antiferromagnetic Bond

Kazuo Hida

The ground state of the alternating spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain is studied with anisotropy on the antiferromagnetic bond. This model reduces to the spin-1 XXZ chain if the isotropic bond is ferromagnetic and infinitely strong. The ground-state phase diagram is determined by the numerical diagonalization of finite-size systems. The results are consistent with the series expansion results by Yamanaka, Hatsugai and Kohmoto, and confirms the qualitative phase diagram predicted by Kohmoto and Tasaki.

Ground-state phase diagram of the spin-1/2 ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with anisotropy

Kazuo Hida

The ground state of the ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain is studied with Ising-type anisotropy on the ferromagnetic bond. This model tends to the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with on-site anisotropy in the limit of strong ferromagnetic bond. It is found that the Haldane-gap phase, the large-D phase, and the two types of N\'eel phases appear as the ground state of this model. The duality relations between these four phases are proved for several limiting cases. The string order parameter characterizing the large-D phase is introduced based on these duality relations. The ground-state phase diagram is determined by the numerical diagonalization of the finite-size system.

Critical properties of the transition between the Haldane phase and the large-Dphase of the spin- ferromagnetic - antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with on-site anisotropy

Kiyomi Okamoto

We analytically study the ground-state quantum phase transition between the Haldane phase and the large-D (LD) phase of the ferromagnetic - antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with on-site anisotropy. We transform this model into a generalized version of the alternating antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with anisotropy. In the transformed model, the competition between the transverse and longitudinal bond alternations yields the Haldane - LD transition. Using the bosonization method, we show that the critical exponents vary continuously on the Haldane - LD boundary. Our scaling relations between critical exponents explains very well the numerical results of Hida.

XY Phase in the Ground State of the Spin-1/2 Anisotropic Alternating Heisenberg Chain

Kazuo Hida

The location of the XY phase in the ground-state phase diagram of the spin-1/2 anisotropic ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain is determined. This model reduces to the spin-1 XXZ chain if the ferromagnetic bond is infinitely strong. The phase boundary between the XY phase and the Haldane phase is determined from the analysis of the numerically obtained energy spectrum of finite-sized systems with the open boundary condition. Our results are consistent with the series-expansion results by Yamanaka et al . within their error bars. The boundary between the ferromagnetic phase and the XY phase is also determined by comparing the energy eigenvalues of these two phases.

Haldane Phase and Large-DPhase of the Spin-1/2 Ferromagnetic-Antiferromagnetic Alternating Heisenberg Chain with On-Site Anisotropy

Kiyomi Okamoto, Dai Nishino, Yôhei Saika

We analytically study the boundary between the Haldane phase and the large- D (LD) phase of a ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with on-site easy-plane anisotropy. We transform this model into a generalized alternating antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with anisotropy. In the transformed model, the competition between the transverse and longitudinal alternations results in the Haldane-LD transition. Our Haldane-LD boundary calculated through the bosonization method agrees very well with that of Hida [Phys. Rev. B 46 (1992) 8268], determined by the numerical method.

Critical Properties of Spin-1 Antiferromagnetic Heisenberg Chains with Bond Alternation and Uniaxial Single-Ion-Type Anisotropy

Wei Chen, Kazuo Hida, B. C. Sanctuary

One dimensional S = 1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with bond alternation and uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy are studied by numerical exact diagonalization of finite size systems. We calculate the ground state phase diagram using the twisted boundary condition method for D≥0. The ground states of this model contain the Haldane state, large-D state and the dimer state. Using conformal field theory and the level spectroscopy method, we calculate the D and δ-dependence of the Luttinger liquid paraments K and the critical exponent ν of the energy gap.
