This paper describes an improvement in the method of exact diagonalization of Hamiltonians of quantum spin models on finite square lattices and the statistical analysis of the data so obtained to estimate the physical properties of the models on the infinite square lattices at zero temperature. The geometry and topology of finite square lattices are described. The models studied are the spin one-half XY and Heisenberg antiferromagnets using 28 finite square lattices with up to 32 vertices. Our estimates of the energy and magnetization on each model on the infinite lattice at zero temperature compare very well with recent estimates using quantum Monte Carlo, series expansion, and spin wave estimates. Estimates of spin wave velocity and transverse susceptibilities are more scattered.PACS No.: 75.10J

The effects of quantum fluctuations due to frustration between nearest neighbors and next-nearest neighbors of the quantum spin-half Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice are investigated by using the modified spin-wave theory (MSW). We have extended Takahashi's MSW theory, and studied the ground-state and finite-temperature properties of this model. The results calculated within this formalism on the thermodynamics agree quite well with the quantum Monte Carlo estimates, and exact diagonalization results. We have also compared the present method with the conventional spin wave theory.

In this article we study the ground-state properties of two square-lattice Heisenberg quantum spin models with competing bonds using a high-order coupled cluster treatment. The first model is a spin-half model with competing nearest-neighbour bonds with and without frustration. We discuss the influence of quantum fluctuations on the ground-state phase diagram and in particular on the nature of the zero-temperature phase transitions from phases with collinear magnetic order at small frustration to phases with noncollinear spiral order at large frustration. The second model is a highly frustrated ferrimagnet, which contains one sublattice (A) entirely populated with spin-one spins and an other sublattice (B) entirely populated with spin-half spins. Sublattice A sites are nearest-neighbours to sublattice B sites and vice versa and frustration is introduced by next-nearest-neighbour bonds. The model shows two collinear ordered phases and a noncollinear phase in which (classically) the spin-one spins are allowed to cant at an angle. Both examples show that the coupled-cluster method is able to describe the zero-temperature transitions well and provides a consistent description of collinear, noncollinear, and disordered phases, for cases in which other standard techniques (e.g. the quantum Monte Carlo technique for spin systems which are frustrated) are not applicable.

The well-known finite-lattice method for the calculation of the properties of quantum spin systems on a two-dimensional lattice at zero temperature was introduced in 1978. The method has now been greatly improved for the square lattice by including finite lattices based on parallelogram tiles as well as the familiar finite lattices based on square tiles. Dozens of these new finite lattices have been tested and graded using the [Formula: see text] ferromagnet. In the process new and improved estimates have been obtained for the XY model's ground-state energy per spin, ε0 = −0.549 36(30) and spontaneous magnetization per spin, m = 0.4349(10). Other properties such as near-neighbour, zero-temperature spin–spin correlations, which appear not to have been calculated previously, have been estimated to high precision. Applications of the improved finite-lattice method to other models can readily be carried out.

The calculation of two- and four-spin correlations of the [Formula: see text] Heisenberg antiferromagnet has been extended to an N = 21 site triangular lattice. The infinite-lattice ground state energy per bond is estimated to be E0/3NJ = −0.3678 ± 0.005 by fitting a quadratic in 1/N to the finite N data. The plaquette chirality order is slightly greater than in the XY antiferromagnet. The two-spin correlation is conjectured to decay as [Formula: see text].
