Exact solution of new integrable nineteen-vertex models and quantum spin-1 chains

TL;DR: In this paper, it is argued that one of the non-critical Hamiltonians is a realization of an integrable Haldane system and the finite-size spectra of the critical Hamiltonians deviate in their structure from standard predictions by conformal invariance.

Controlling the phase diagram of finite spin-1/2 chains by tuning the boundary interactions

TL;DR: In this article, a controllable spin wire (CSW) was constructed, in which the Hamiltonians on the boundaries were tuned as tuning Hamiltonians (TH's), which can trigger non-trivial controlling of the bulk properties, including the degeneracy of energy/entanglement spectra, and the response to the magnetic field.

Investigation of One- and Two-Dimensional Quantum Spin Systems by Monte Carlo Simulations

TL;DR: In this paper, a path-integral approach based on the Trotter formula is proposed to simulate quantum spin systems with nearest neighbor interaction, where the spin system is mapped into the limit of a sequence of classical spin systems.

Spin wave analysis of heisenberg magnets in restricted geometries

TL;DR: In this article, the main ingredients of the spin-wave technique using as a working model the two-leg mixed-spin ferrimagnetic ladder and the Dyson Maleev boson formalism up to second order in the spinwave interaction are introduced.

Magnetic excitations in quasi one-dimensional antiferromagnets

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the neutron scattering experiments on quasi one-dimensional antiferromagnets of ABX3 type and compare them with the conventional triple axis spectroscopy.

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.
