Quantized Berry phases for a local characterization of spin liquids in frustrated spin systems

TL;DR: In this article, a generic Heisenberg model with a finite excitation gap is considered and the Hamiltonian is modified by a continuous SU(2) twist only at a specific link and the Berry connection is defined by the derivative.

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.

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.
