TLDR
The spin-S quantum Heisenberg magnet with Gaussian-random, infinite-range exchange interactions is examined with generalizing to SU(M) symmetry and studying the large M limit to find the spin-fluid phase to be generically gapless.Abstract:
We examine the spin-S quantum Heisenberg magnet with Gaussian-random, infinite-range exchange interactions. The quantum-disordered phase is accessed by generalizing to SU(M) symmetry and studying the large M limit. For large S the ground state is a spin glass, while quantum fluctuations produce a spin-fluid state for small S. The spin-fluid phase is found to be generically gapless---the average, zero temperature, local dynamic spin susceptibility obeys \ensuremath{\chi}\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}(\ensuremath{\omega})\ensuremath{\sim}ln(1/\ensuremath{\Vert}\ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\Vert})+i(\ensuremath{\pi}/2)sgn(\ensuremath{\omega}) at low frequencies.read more

Locally critical quantum phase transitions in strongly correlated metals
TL;DR: The theoretical finding of a locally critical quantum phase transition in a model of heavy fermions is reported, and local criticality is proposed to be a phenomenon of general relevance to strongly correlated metals.
