An Upper Bound for the Spin-Wave Spectrum of the Heisenberg Antiferromagnet
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the spin-wave spectrum of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a bipartite lattice. The spin-wave spectrum on a Néel-ordered ground state is bounded as ε(k) ≤ c|k|, where c gives an upper bound for the spin-wave velocity. In the large-S limit, the upper bound c coincides with the result of the spin-wave theory.

حالت RVB بهینه در شبکه مربعی: حالت پایه و برانگیخته
We consider RVB state as a variational estimate for the ground state of Heisenberg antiferromagnet in square lattice. We present numerical calculation of energy, spin-spin correlation function and spin excitation spectrum. We show, that the quantum flactuations reduce of magnetization respect to Neel order. Our results are in good agreement with other methods such as spin-wave calculation a...
متن کاملVariational bound for the energy of two- dimensional quantum antiferromagnet
We obtain the variational upper bound for the groundstate energy of twodimensional antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a square lattice at arbitrary value of the anisotropy parameter using the two-dimensional generalization of Jordan-Wigner transformation. Our result can be considered as an upper bound for the perturbation theory series about the Ising limit. At present time two dimensional q...
متن کاملQuantum Effects and Broken Symmetries in Frustrated Antiferromagnets
We investigate the interplay between frustration and zero-point quantum fluctuations in the ground state of the triangular and J1−J2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets, using finitesize spin-wave theory, exact diagonalization, and quantum Monte Carlo methods. In the triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet, by performing a systematic size-scaling analysis, we have obtained strong evidences for a gapless ...
متن کاملSpin excitations and sum rules in the Heisenberg antiferromagnet.
Various bounds for the energy of collective excitations in the Heisenberg antiferromagnet are presented and discussed using the formalism of sum rules. We show that the Feynman approximation significantly overestimates (by about 30% in the S = 1 2 square lattice) the spin velocity due to the non negligible contribution of multi magnons to the energy weighted sum rule. We also discuss a differen...
متن کاملEvidence for gapped spin-wave excitations in the frustrated Gd2Sn2O7 pyrochlore antiferromagnet from low-temperature specific heat measurements.
We have measured the low-temperature specific heat of the geometrically frustrated pyrochlore Heisenberg antiferromagnet Gd2Sn2O7 in zero magnetic field. The specific heat is found to drop exponentially below approximately 350 mK. This provides evidence for a gapped spin-wave spectrum due to an anisotropy resulting from single-ion effects and long-range dipolar interactions. The data are well f...
