TLDR
In this article, it was suggested that a second-order transition from an antiferromagnetic to a Kondo spin-compensated ground state will occur as the exchange coupling constant J is increased to a critical value Jc for systems in which J ≲ Jc.
Abstract
By considering a one-dimensional analog of a system of conduction electrons exchange coupled to a localized spin in each cell of a lattice, it is suggested that a second-order transition from an antiferromagnetic to a Kondo spin-compensated ground state will occur as the exchange coupling constant J is increased to a critical value Jc For systems in which J ≲ Jc, a very weak sublattice magnetization may occur as a result of nearly complete spin-compensation

Dynamical mean-field theory of strongly correlated fermion systems and the limit of infinite dimensions

TL;DR: The dynamical mean field theory of strongly correlated electron systems is based on a mapping of lattice models onto quantum impurity models subject to a self-consistency condition.

Fermi-liquid instabilities at magnetic quantum phase transitions

Numerical renormalization group method for quantum impurity systems

TL;DR: In the early 1970s, Wilson developed the concept of a fully nonperturbative renormalization group transformation as mentioned in this paper, which gave for the first time the full crossover from the high temperature phase of a free spin to the low-temperature phase of completely screened spin.

Theory of the First-Order Magnetic Phase Change in U O 2

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a "catastrophe" may occur at some critical temperature so that the magnetization is reduced discontinuously to zero, and depending on the ratio of the singlet-triplet energy difference to the molecular-field splitting of the triplet, one obtains either no magnetic ordering, a first-order phase change, or a second-order transition.

Calculation of critical exponents in two dimensions from quantum field theory in one dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, a relationship between the Baxter model in two dimensions and the Luttinger model in one was constructed, and the relationship was used to calculate critical exponents for the Baxter models from appropriate Lutteringer-model correlation functions.

Backward Scattering in the One-Dimensional Electron Gas

TL;DR: An exact solution to the one-dimensional electron gas with a particular attractive interaction strength for scattering across the Fermi "surface" is given in this paper, and scaling arguments are advanced to demonstrate that this solution applies generally for attractive backward scattering.

Exact Results in the Kondo Problem. II. Scaling Theory, Qualitatively Correct Solution, and Some New Results on One-Dimensional Classical Statistical Models

TL;DR: In this paper, the simplest Kondo problem is treated exactly in the ferromagnetic case, and given exact bounds for the relevant physical properties in the antiferromagnetic cases, by use of a scaling technique on an asymptotically exact expression for the ground-state properties given earlier.
