A microscopic study of the quantum critical behavior of the spin-1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg models

Abstract

We extend our own previous applications of the microscopic coupled-cluster method (CCM) to quantum antiferromagnets. In particular, we carry out a systematic calculation involving high-order multispin correlations for the spin-1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg models on the one-dimensional chain and the two-dimensional square lattice. Their ground-state properties are obtained as functions of the anisotropy parameter. Our CCM analysis not only produces accurate results for such physical quantities as the ground-state energy which are comparable to the best results from other techniques, but it also enables us to study the quantum phase transitions of the spin models in a systematic and unbiased manner. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Systematic Inclusion of High-Order Multispin Correlations for the Spin-½ XXZ Models

R. F. Bishop, R. G. Hale, Yang Xian

We apply the microscopic coupled-cluster method (CCM) to the spin-\textonehalf{} $\mathrm{XXZ}$ models on both the one-dimensional chain and the two-dimensional square lattice. Based on a systematic approximation scheme of the CCM developed by us previously, we carry out high-order ab initio calculations using computer-algebraic techniques. The ground-state properties of the models are obtained with high accuracy as functions of the anisotropy parameter. Furthermore, our CCM analysis enables us to study their quantum critical behavior in a systematic and unbiased manner.

Phase Transition Of The Spin-One Square-Lattice Anisotropic Heisenberg Model

DAMIAN J. J. FARNELL, Klaus A. Gernoth, R. F. Bishop

The coupled cluster method (CCM) is applied to the spin-one anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnet (HAF) on the square lattice at zero temperature using a new high-order CCM ground-state formalism for general quantum spin number ($s \ge 1/2$). The results presented constitute the first such application of this new formalism, and they are shown to be among the most accurate results for the ground-state energy and sublattice magnetisation of this model as yet determined. We ``track'' the solution to the CCM equations at a given level of approximation with respect to the anisotropy parameter, $Δ$, from the trivial Ising limit ($Δ\to \infty$) down to a critical value $Δ_c$, at which point this solution terminates. This behaviour is associated with a phase transition in the system, and hence a primary result of these high-order CCM calculations is that they provide an accurate and unbiased (i.e., {\it ab initio}) estimation of the position of the quantum phase transition point as a function of the anisotropy parameter. Our result is, namely, that this point occurs at (or slightly below) the isotropic Heisenberg point at $Δ=1$, for this model.

AB INITIO CALCULATIONS FOR THE SQUARE-LATTICE ANISOTROPIC HEISENBERG MODEL

R. F. Bishop, DAMIAN J. J. FARNELL

Interest in lattice quantum spin systems as models of quantum magnets has increased with the discovery of new and interesting magnetic materials. Here we use a well-known technique of quantum many-body theory, namely the coupled-cluster method (CCM), to investigate the nearest-neighbour, spin-½, anisotropic Heisenberg model on the square lattice. Ground-state expectation values for quantities such as the ground-state energy and the sublattice magnetisation are determined to an accuracy comparable with that of the best of other available techniques including Monte Carlo methods. In order to demonstrate this point we present results for various values of the anisotropy parameter, including those for the isotropic Heisenberg model and the isotropic XY model. We show that it is now possible to determine the presence and position of the quantum phase transitions using ab initio CCM calculations, and furthermore that we can accurately predict the critical behaviour at these points.

Coupled-cluster treatments of correlations in quantum antiferromagnets

R. F. Bishop, John B. Parkinson, Yang Xian

The coupled-cluster method (CCM) is applied to anisotropic-quantum-antiferromagnetic models in one and two dimensions (1D and 2D). Several hierarchical approximation schemes of the CCM are defined, which are specialized for the spin-lattice models. Good results are obtained for both ground-state and excited-state energies. The spin-spin correlation functions and the staggered magnetizations are also calculated. We have found that the CCM gives a qualitatively correct description of the entire Heisenberg-Ising phase, including the critical point where a phase transition occurs in 1D. Some interesting differences between 1D and 2D models near the critical point are discussed.

Coupled-cluster calculations of quantumXXZmodels with a general spin

R. F. Bishop, John B. Parkinson, Yang Xian

The coupled-cluster method (CCM) has already been successfully applied by us to anisotropic quantum antiferromagnetic models (XXZ model) with spin s=1/2 in one and two dimensions. This approach is now generalized to the same models but with spin s>1/2. We mainly consider the one-dimensional system in this article. Several systematic approximation schemes developed previously are employed. The ground-state energy is obtained as a function of the spin s and anisotropy. It is found that, for a given approximation that contains long-range contributions, the critical value of the anisotropy for the Heisenberg-Ising phase transition rapidly approaches the classical value of 1 as the spin s increases. We also generalize one of the schemes to a hypercubic lattice of arbitrary dimensionality. By making a detailed comparison with spin-wave theory, perturbation theory, and other variational approaches, some additional intrinsic features of the CCM treatments are emphasized.

A microscopic theory of magnetic order in strongly correlated quantum spin lattices

R. F. Bishop, DAMIAN J. J. FARNELL

Quantum spins arranged on regular geometrical lattices, and interacting through a wide diversity of specified model Hamiltonians, provide a rich variety of magnetically ordered phases with many subtle properties. The zero-temperature quantum phase transitions between states of different order can be explored by the variation of internal control parameters within the interaction Hamiltonian. We illustrate how the systematic inclusion of multi-spin correlations for such lattice systems may be efficiently and effectively implemented via the coupled cluster method (CCM), which has been widely demonstrated on many previous occasions to be one of the most versatile methods of microscopic quantum many-body theory. Its power is illustrated by application to the spin-½ anisotropic Heisenberg (or XXZ) model on an infinite square lattice. The results obtained for such properties as the ground-state energy and sublattice magnetization are found to be as accurate as those obtained by any available alternative method. We show also how the CCM can now provide accurate ab initio estimates for the critical values of the parameters which mark the positions of phase boundaries between states of different quantum order, as well as for the critical indices associated with the singular behaviour near these transition points of various physical quantities.
