Abstract
Using Heisenberg model with two-, three- and four-site exchange interactions, by means of variational mean-feld like treatment based on Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality the magnetic properties and concurrence (measure of pairwise thermal entanglement) on decorated zigzag ladder are studied. We have found that in the antiferromagnetic region behaviour of the concurrence coincides with the magnetic susceptibility one. With absence of external magnetic feld the dependence of magnetization from temperature plotted and shown that system undergo second order phase transition in some critical temperature.
