Nature of chiral spin liquids on the kagome lattice

Alexander Wietek, Antoine Sterdyniak, Andreas Martin Läuchli

We investigate the stability and the nature of the chiral spin liquids which were recently uncovered in extended Heisenberg models on the kagome lattice. Using a Gutzwiller projected wave function approach, i.e., a parton construction, we obtain large overlaps with ground states of these extended Heisenberg models. We further suggest that the appearance of the chiral spin liquid in the time-reversal invariant case is linked to a classical transition line between two magnetically ordered phases.

Variational Monte Carlo study of a chiral spin liquid in the extended Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice

Wen-Jun Hu, Wei Kang Zhu, Yi Zhang +3 more

We investigate the extended Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice by using Gutzwiller projected fermionic states and the variational Monte Carlo technique. In particular, when both second- and third-neighbor superexchanges are considered, we find that a gapped spin liquid described by nontrivial magnetic fluxes and long-range chiral-chiral correlations is energetically favored compared to the gapless U(1) Dirac state. Furthermore, the topological Chern number, obtained by integrating the Berry curvature, and the degeneracy of the ground state, by constructing linearly independent states, lead us to identify this flux state as the chiral spin liquid with a $C=1/2$ fractionalized Chern number.
