TLDR
An action-angle representation of spin variables was used to relate the large-S Heisenberg antiferromagnet to the O(3) nonlinear sigma model quantum field theory, with precise equivalence for integral S as discussed by the authors.

The gauged O(3) sigma model: Schrödinger representation and Hamilton–Jacobi formulation

TL;DR: In this paper, a free particle on an (n−1)-sphere in an extended phase space was studied, where the originally second-class Hamiltonian and constraints are now in strong involution.

Finite and infinite matrix product states for Gutzwiller projected mean-field wave functions

TL;DR: In this article, the ground state of an arbitrary fermionic quadratic mean-field Hamiltonian (which in the simplest case is a Slater determinant and in the most general case is an Pfaffian) is represented by matrix product states (MPSs).

Haldane phases with ultracold fermionic atoms in double-well optical lattices

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose to realize one-dimensional topological phases protected by symmetry using alkali or alkaline-earth atoms loaded into a bichromatic optical lattice, and derive a realistic model for this system and investigate it theoretically.

Lieb-Schultz-Mattis-type filling constraints in the 1651 magnetic space groups

TL;DR: In this article, the electron filling alone is sometimes sufficient to eliminate the possibility of featureless insulators, since the material with a certain filling must exhibit either spontaneous symmetry breaking with concomitant gapless excitations or fractionalization.

Bilayer Graphene as a Platform for Bosonic Symmetry-Protected Topological States

TL;DR: It is proposed that a two-dimensional BSPT state with U(1)×U( 1) symmetry can be realized in bilayer graphene in a magnetic field and only bosonic modes close their gap at the transition, which is fundamentally different from all the well-known topological insulator to trivial insulator transitions that occur for free fermion systems.

Zur Theorie der Metalle

TL;DR: In this article, a Methode angegeben, um die Eigenfunktionen nullter and Eigenwerte erster Naherung (im Sinne des Approximationsverfahrens von London and Heitler) fur ein „eindimensionales Metall“ zu berechnen, bestehend aus einer linearen Kette von sehr vielen Atomen, von denen jedes auser abgeschlossenen Schalen eins-Elektron with Spin besitz

Integrable Hamiltonian systems and interactions through quadratic constraints

TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic field theories in one time and one space dimension with interactions that are entirely due to quadratic constraints are shown to be closely related to integrable Hamiltonian systems.

Interaction of Goldstone Particles in Two-Dimensions. Applications to Ferromagnets and Massive Yang-Mills Fields

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that due to interaction the regime of the asymmptotic freedom arises and the continuation to higher dimensions and the applications of the result are briefly discussed.

What is the spin of a spin wave

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the spin of a spin wave in the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain of spins 1 2 is equal to 1 2 rather than 1 as is generally considered to be true.
