We developed a finite-size spin-wave calculation on the Heisenberg anti-ferromagnet on the triangular lattice, which, to order 1/s, favors a singlet (for an even number of sites) ground state. Furthermore, we implement the computation of the low-energy excitation spectrum E (S) where S is the total spin. For s=1/2, the good agreement with the exact diagonalization and quantum Monte Carlo results strengthens the validity of the spin-wave expansion to describe the low-energy spin excitations of the Heisenberg model even in the presence of frustration.

We investigate the interplay between frustration and zero-point quantum fluctuations in the ground state of the triangular and J1–J2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets, using finite-size 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 spectrum and a finite value of the thermodynamic order parameter, thus confirming the existence of long-range Néel order. The good agreement between the finite-size spin-wave results and the exact and quantum Monte Carlo data also supports the reliability of the spin-wave expansion to describe both the ground state and the low-energy spin excitations of the triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet. In the J1–J2 Heisenberg model, our results indicate the opening of a finite gap in the thermodynamic excitation spectrum at J2/J1≃0.4, marking the melting of the antiferromagnetic Néel order and the onset of a non-magnetic ground state. In order to characterize the nature of the latter quantum-disordered phase we have computed the susceptibilities for the most important crystal symmetry breaking operators. In the ordered phase the effectiveness of the spin-wave theory in reproducing the low-energy excitation spectrum suggests that the uniform spin susceptibility of the model is very close to the linear spin-wave prediction.

Effects of both the phase and the amplitude inhomogeneities of different dimensionalities on the Greens function and on the one-dimensional density of states of spin waves in the sinusoidal superlattice have been studied. Processes of multiple scattering of waves from inhomogeneities have been taken into account in the self-consistent approximation.

Abstract —A 2D anisotropic system of S = 1 centers of the charge triplet type in systems with variable valence or “semi-hard-core” boson systems with a limitation for the occupation of lattice sites n = 0, 1, 2 is studied in the framework of the pseudospin formalism. Assuming that the ground state is a quantum paramagnet, the pseudo-spin wave spectrum and also the conditions of the condensation of pseudomagnons with a phase transition to a superconducting state have been found using the Schwinger boson method.
