Ground-State Long-Range Order in the Two-DimensionalXXZMode
Hidetoshi Nishimori, Yukiyasu Ozeki
Abstract
We prove the existence of Néel-type long-range order in the ground state of the spin-1/2 XXZ model with Δ (exchange anisotropy)>1.67 on the square lattice. We further show the existence of long-range order for Δ >1.10 and 0≦ Δ <0.59 by assuming monotonicity of nearest neighbor correlations as functions of the system size. The assumption of monotonicity is supported by numerical calculations.
