Dimer Correlarions in Spin-1/2 Alternating XY Chain

Abstract

We investigate the long-distance asymptotic behavior of the dimer correlations in the spin-1/2 alternating $XY$chain both at T=0 and at sufficiently low-temperatures. The correlations consist of the dimer long-range order part and the exponentially decaying one. Although the dimer long-range order takes the different values depending on the choice of the spin pairs, the behavior in the decaying term is same irrespective of the choice of spin pairs.

Longitudinal Spin Correlation in Spin-1/2 DimerizedXYChain

Kiyomi Okamoto

The long-distance asymptotic behavior of the longitudinal spin correlation < S i z S j z > in the ground-state of the spin-1/2 dimerized XY chain is exactly calculated. The spin correlation < S i z S j z > decays in the exponential law with the correlation length ζ=1/ln [(1+δ)/(1-δ)]. Here δ (0≦δ≦1) represents the degree of alternation: i.e., the stronger and the weaker spin couplings are expressed as J (1+δ) and J (1-δ), respectively. The correlation length ξ smoothly changes from ∞ (power decay) to 0 as we move away from δ=0 (no alternation) to δ=1 (independent spin pairs). The nearest neighbor spin correlation is also investigated. The present results are compared with those obtained by the use of the phase Hamiltonian method.

Longitudinal Spin Correlation in Spin-1/2 DimerizedXYChain. II. Finite Temperature

Kiyomi Okamoto

We exactly calculate the long-distance asymptotic behavior of the longitudinal spin correlation \(R{\equiv}\langle S_{\imath}^{z}S_{\jmath}^{z}\rangle\) of the spin-1/2 dimerized XY chain at finite temperatures. The spin correlation R decays in the exponential law with the correlation length ξ( T ), which decreases with the increase of T . The present results are compared with those obtained by the use of the phase Hamiltonian method.

Exponential asymptotic spin correlations in XY chains

Jörn Krones, Joachim Stolze

The long-time and long-distance asymptotic behavior of the $x$ spin correlations at finite temperature in an anisotropic spin-1/2 XY chain is determined numerically. The decay of the correlations is exponential in both space and time. Similar exponential decay of correlations was already found earlier in the special case of the isotropic model, where analytical expressions for the decay rates could be derived via a mapping to a different model. While no such mapping is known for the anisotropic model, the asymptotic correlations can be very well approximated by a natural generalization of the known analytic results for the isotropic case.

The emptiness formation probability correlation in homogeneous and dimerized XX chains

Stolze, Garske

We review some known properties of the "emptiness formation probability" correlation which we have calculated numerically for spin-1/2 XX chains with constant (homogeneous) or alternating (dimerized) nearestneighbor coupling and an external field (in z direction) for arbitrary temperature.The long-distance asymptotic behavior of this correlation is known to be Gaussian at zero temperature and exponential at finite temperature for the homogeneous chain.By simple analytical arguments the exponential behavior at finite temperature extends to the dimerized system.Numerical results for the dimerized chain confirm the exponential decay at finite temperature and show Gaussian decay at zero temperature.

Spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets

Biao Hao, Chang-De Gong

We study the long-range behavior of spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets with both Ising anisotropy and spatial anisotropy. We represent the spin operators in terms of spin-density operators and spin-phase operators. Then for spin-1/2 antiferromagnets, within a simple harmonic approximation, we obtain expressions for the spin correlations in the ground state. For the one-dimensional linear chain, we find that the two leading terms in spin correlation are (-1${)}^{\mathit{r}}$c/${\mathit{r}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}$-${\mathit{c}}_{1}$/${\mathit{r}}^{2}$ for large distance r. The power \ensuremath{\eta} depends on the Ising anisotropy, and \ensuremath{\eta}=0.405 at XY point and \ensuremath{\eta}=1.062 at Heisenberg point. For the two-dimensional square lattice, there is long-range staggered magnetization, and the dependence of magnetization on Ising anisotropy is given. For the crossover from one-dimensional linear chain to two-dimensional square lattice, we find that the disorder-order transition occurs as long as the interchain coupling is introduced. We believe that our method gives a unified approach to the long-range behavior of spin correlations in low-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets.
