Study of One-Dimensional Quantum Spin Systems by the Transger-Matrix Method. II: S = 1 Case
Hiroshi Betsuyaku, Terufumi Yokota
The one-dimensional S=1 quantum spin system has been mapped onto the equivalent two-dimensional Ising model on the basis of the equivalence theorem of Suzuki. The classical representation of the partition function has been expressed in terms of the maximum eigenvalue of the transfer matrix and evaluated by means of the numerically exact transfer-matrix method. The physical meaning of two kinds of correlation functions in RSD and CBD has been made clear in terms of the concept of the maximum eigenstate. Calculations have been made for both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with several single-site anisotropy values, both positive and negative. Good agreements are found with some existing numerical results.
