Topological Mott insulator with bosonic edge modes in one-dimensional fermionic superlattices

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated topological phase transitions driven by interaction and identified a topological Mott insulator state in one-dimensional fermionic optical superlattices through a numerical density-matrix renormalization-group method.

Three-magnon excitations in ferromagnetic spin-S chains

TL;DR: In this paper, the nature of three-magnon excitations in general spin-S quantum spin chains is studied using the recursion method and the asymptotic behaviour of the recurrence coefficients can be used to identify the presence of bound states in the spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetization process of random quantum spin chains

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetization process of spin chains with randomness is discussed and a close analogy between these systems and disordered particle systems is made, with particular attention paid to the (in)stability of spin-gapped phases against several types of randomness.

New approaches to the quantum heisenberg models : schwinger boson representations (invited)

TL;DR: Schwinger boson representations allow us to study ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg models in a rotationally invariant formulation as discussed by the authors, and they have been applied to the nonlinear sigma model.

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.
