متن کاملExactly Solvable Models for Self-Assembly
The field of self-assembly studies the spontaneous formation of order from preexisting components. It holds the promise of fabricating tomorrows materials and devices not by traditional methods, but by designing building blocks that will act as supramolecular “atoms” and form the desired structures without external input. Theoretical understanding in self-assembly has previously been achieved m...
متن کاملTranslational Symmetry and Microscopic Constraints on Symmetry-Enriched Topological Phases: A View from the Surface
The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem and its higher-dimensional generalizations by Oshikawa and Hastings require that translationally invariant 2D spin systems with a half-integer spin per unit cell must either have a continuum of low energy excitations, spontaneously break some symmetries, or exhibit topological order with anyonic excitations. We establish a connection between these constraints and...
متن کاملNumerical detection of symmetry enriched topological phases with space group symmetry
Topologically ordered phases of matter, in particular so-called symmetry enriched topological (SET) phases, can exhibit quantum number fractionalization in the presence of global symmetry. In Z2 topologically ordered states in two dimensions, fundamental translations Tx and Ty acting on anyons can either commute or anticommute. This property, crystal momentum fractionalization, can be seen in a...
متن کاملExactly Solvable Models of Generalized Spin Ladders
We study S = 1 2 spin ladder systems with isotropic exchange interactions between spins on neighboring rungs. We show that a ladder with suitable diagonal and biquadratic interactions is integrable in the sense that the quantum Yang-Baxter equation holds and one has an infinite number of conserved quantities. We give the R-matrix and L-operator associated with the ladder model. The model can be...
