Quantum spin liquids: a review

L Savary, L Balents - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantum spin liquids may be considered'quantum disordered'ground states of spin systems,
in which zero-point fluctuations are so strong that they prevent conventional magnetic long …

Signatures of Dirac cones in a DMRG study of the kagome Heisenberg model

YC He, MP Zaletel, M Oshikawa, F Pollmann - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
The antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a kagome lattice is one of the most
paradigmatic models in the context of spin liquids, yet the precise nature of its ground state …

Neural-network quantum states, string-bond states, and chiral topological states

I Glasser, N Pancotti, M August, ID Rodriguez, JI Cirac - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
Neural-network quantum states have recently been introduced as an Ansatz for describing
the wave function of quantum many-body systems. We show that there are strong …

Spin liquid nature in the Heisenberg triangular antiferromagnet

Y Iqbal, WJ Hu, R Thomale, D Poilblanc, F Becca - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
We investigate the spin-1 2 Heisenberg model on the triangular lattice in the presence of
nearest-neighbor J 1 and next-nearest-neighbor J 2 antiferromagnetic couplings. Motivated …

Four-spin terms and the origin of the chiral spin liquid in Mott insulators on the triangular lattice

T Cookmeyer, J Motruk, JE Moore - Physical review letters, 2021 - APS
At strong repulsion, the triangular-lattice Hubbard model is described by s= 1/2 spins with
nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions and exhibits conventional 120° …

Simulating chiral spin liquids with projected entangled-pair states

J Hasik, M Van Damme, D Poilblanc… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
Doubts have been raised on the representation of chiral spin liquids exhibiting topological
order in terms of projected entangled pair states (PEPSs). Here, starting from a simple spin …

Global phase diagram of competing ordered and quantum spin-liquid phases on the kagome lattice

SS Gong, W Zhu, L Balents, DN Sheng - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We study the quantum phase diagram of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the kagome
lattice with first-, second-, and third-neighbor interactions J 1, J 2, and J 3 by means of …

Noncoplanar orders and quantum disordered states in maple-leaf antiferromagnets

M Gembé, L Gresista, HJ Schmidt, C Hickey, Y Iqbal… - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
A promising route towards the realization of chiral spin liquids is the quantum melting of
classically noncoplanar spin states via quantum fluctuations. In the classical realm, such …

Coupled-wire construction of chiral spin liquids

T Meng, T Neupert, M Greiter, R Thomale - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We develop a coupled-wire construction of chiral spin liquids. The starting points are
individual wires of electrons in the Mott regime that are subject to a Zeeman field and …
