Ground-State Phase Diagram of (1/2,1/2,1) Mixed Diamond Chains with Single-Site Anisotropy

The ground-state phases of mixed diamond chains with ($S, \tau^{(1)}, \tau^{(2)})=(1/2,1/2,1)$, where $S$ is the magnitude of vertex spins, and $\tau^{(1)}$ and $\tau^{(2)}$ are those of apical spins, are investigated with the single-site anisotropy $D$ on the $\tau^{(2)}$-site. The two apical spins in each unit cell are coupled by an exchange coupling $\lambda$. The vertex spins are coupled with the top and bottom apical spins by exchange couplings $1+\delta$ and $1-\delta$, respectively. The ground-state phase diagram is determined using the numerical exact diagonalization and DMRG method in addition to the analytical approximations in various limiting cases. The phase diagram consists of a N\'eel ordered phase, a nonmagnetic Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase, and quantized and partial ferrimagnetic phases. A region with anisotropy inversion is found where the Ising-like N\'eel phase is realized for the easy-plane anisotropy $D >0$ and the XY-like Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase is realized for the easy-axis anisotropy $D <0$ on the $S=1$ sites.

Ground-State Phase Diagram of (1/2,1/2,1) Mixed Diamond Chains

The ground-state phases of mixed diamond chains with ($S, \tau^{(1)}, \tau^{(2)})=(1/2,1/2,1)$, where $S$ is the magnitude of vertex spins, and $\tau^{(1)}$ and $\tau^{(2)}$ are those of apical spins, are investigated. The two apical spins in each unit cell are coupled by an exchange coupling $\lambda$. The vertex spins are coupled with the top and bottom apical spins by exchange couplings $1+\delta$ and $1-\delta$, respectively. Although this model has an infinite number of local conservation laws for $\delta=0$, they are lost for finite $\delta$. The ground-state phase diagram is determined using the numerical exact diagonalization and DMRG method in addition to the analytical approximations in various limiting cases. The phase diagram consists of a nonmagnetic phase and several kinds of ferrimagnetic phases. We find two different ferrimagnetic phases without spontaneous translational symmetry breakdown. It is also found that the quantized ferrimagnetic phases with large spatial periodicities present for $\delta=0$ are easily destroyed by small $\delta$ and replaced by a partial ferrimagnetic phase. The nonmagnetic phase is considered to be a gapless Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase based on the recently extended Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem to the site-reflection invariant spin chains and numerical diagonalization results.

First Order Transitions Between the Gapped Spin-Liquid and Ferrimagnetic Phases in (1/2,1/2,1) Mixed Diamond Chains with Bond Alternation

The ground-state phases of mixed diamond chains with bond alternation $δ$, and ($S, τ^{(1)}, τ^{(2)})=(1/2,1/2,1)$, where $S$ is the magnitude of vertex spins, and $τ^{(1)}$ and $τ^{(2)}$ are those of apical spins, are investigated. The two apical spins in each unit cell are connected by an exchange coupling $λ$. The exchange couplings between the apical spins and the vertex spins take the values $1+δ$ and $1-δ$ alternatingly. This model has an infinite number of local conservation laws. For large $λ$ and $δ\neq 0$, the ground state is equivalent to that of the spin $1/2$ chain with bond alternation. Hence, the ground state is a gapped spin liquid. This energy gap vanishes for $δ=0$. With the decrease of $λ$, the ground state undergoes a transition at $λ=λ_{\rm c0}(δ)$ to a series of ferrimagnetic phases with a spontaneous magnetization $m_{\rm sp}=1/p$ per unit cell where $p$ is a positive integer. It is found that this transition is a first order transition for $δ\neq 0$ with a discontinuous change in $m_{\rm sp}$, while no discontinuity is found for $δ=0$. The critical behaviors of $m_{\rm sp}$ and $λ_{\rm c0}(δ)$ around the critical point $(δ,λ) =(0, λ_{\rm c0}(δ))$ are also discussed analytically.

Infinite Series of Ferrimagnetic Phases Emergent from the Gapless Spin Liquid Phase of Mixed Diamond Chains

The ground-state phases of mixed diamond chains with ($S, τ^{(1)}, τ^{(2)})=(1/2,1/2,1)$, where $S$ is the magnitude of vertex spins, and $τ^{(1)}$ and $τ^{(2)}$ are those of apical spins, are investigated. The apical spins $τ^{(1)}$ and $τ^{(2)}$ are connected with each other by an exchange coupling $λ$. Other exchange couplings are set equal to unity. This model has an infinite number of local conservation laws. For large $λ$, the ground state is equivalent to that of the uniform spin $1/2$ chain. Hence, the ground state is a gapless spin liquid. For $λ\leq 0$, the ground state is a Lieb-Mattis ferrimagnetic phase with spontaneous magnetization $m_{\rm sp}=1$ per unit cell. For intermediate $λ$, we find a series of ferrimagnetic phases with $m_{\rm sp}=1/p$ where $p$ takes positive integer values. The phases with $p \geq 2$ are accompanied by the spontaneous breakdown of the $p$-fold translational symmetry. It is suggested that the phase with arbitrarily large $p$, namely infinitesimal spontaneous magnetization, is allowed as $λ$ approaches the transition point to the gapless spin liquid phase.

Ground-State Phases of Alternating-Bond S = 1 Diamond Chains

The ground-state phases of alternating-bond spin-1 diamond chains are investigated. Each ground state consists of an array of spin clusters separated by singlet dimers owing to an infinite number of local conservation laws. If no singlet dimers are present, the ground state is equivalent to that of a spin chain with infinite length.For strong frustration, we find a series of quantum phase transitions as in the case of alternating-bond mixed diamond chains with spins 1 and 1/2. For intermediate frustration, we find the nonmagnetic Haldane or dimer phases according to whether the bond alternation is weak or strong. For weak frustration and weak bond alternation, we find the ferrimagnetic states with spontaneous magnetizations $m=1/6$ and 1/3 per site. The ferrimagnetic state with $m=1/6$ is accompanied by a spontaneous translational symmetry breakdown. This phase vanishes for strong bond alternation.

Ground State Phases of Distorted $S=1$ Diamond Chains

The ground states of distorted $S=1$ diamond chains are investigated for two types of distortion called type A and B [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 79 (2010) 114703]. For the type A distortion, Haldane phases with and without spontaneous translational symmetry breakdown are present for large values of parameter $λ$ that parametrize the strength of frustration. For small $λ$, the Haldane phase and two quantized ferrimagnetic phases in the undistorted chain remain stable even for strong distortion. In contrast, for the type B distortion, the quantized ferrimagnetic phases with and without spontaneous translational symmetry breakdown are present for large $λ$. The partial ferrimagnetic phases emerge between them. For small $λ$, two quantized ferrimagnetic phases remain and the partial ferrimagnetic phases also emerge between them. The Haldane phase between the two kinds of ferrimagnetic phases turns into a topologically trivial double Haldane phase for strong distortion.

Partial Ferrimagnetism in S=1/2 Heisenberg Ladders with a Ferromagnetic Leg, an Antiferromagnetic Leg, and Antiferromagnetic Rungs

Ground-state and finite-temperature properties of $S=1/2$ Heisenberg ladders with a ferromagnetic leg, an antiferromagnetic leg, and antiferromagnetic rungs are studied. It is shown that a partial ferrimagnetic phase extends over a wide parameter range in the ground state. The numerical results are supported by an analytical calculation based on a mapping onto the nonlinear $σ$ model and a perturbation calculation from the strong-rung limit. It is shown that the partial ferrimagnetic state is a spontaneously magnetized Tomonaga--Luttinger liquid with incommensurate magnetic correlation, which is confirmed by a DMRG calculation. The finite-temperature magnetic susceptibility is calculated using the thermal pure quantum state method. It is suggested that the susceptibility diverges as $T^{-2}$ in the ferrimagnetic phases as in the case of ferromagnetic Heisenberg chains.

Ground State Phase Diagram of S=1 Diamond Chains

We investigate the ground-state phase diagram of a spin-1 diamond chain. Owing to a series of conservation laws, any eigenstate of this system can be expressed using the eigenstates of finite odd-length chains or infinite chains with spins 1 and 2. The ground state undergoes quantum phase transitions with varying $λ$, a parameter that controls frustration. Exact upper and lower bounds for the phase boundaries between these phases are obtained. The phase boundaries are determined numerically in the region not explored in the previous work [Takano et al. J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 8 (1996) 6405].

Topological Phases of Spin-1/2 Ferromagnetic--Antiferromagnetic Alternating Heisenberg Chains with Alternating Next-Nearest-Neighbour Interaction

A series of symmetry-protected topological(SPT) and trivial spin-gap phases in the spin-1/2 ferromagnetic--antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with alternating next-nearest-neighbour interaction are investigated using two kinds of entanglement spectra defined by different divisions of the whole chain. In the case one of the next-nearest-neighbor interaction vanishes, the model reduces to the $Δ$-chain in which a series of spin-gap phases are found in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 77, 044707 (2008). From the degeneracy of the entanglement spectra, these phases are identified as the SPT and trivial phases. It is found that the ground state phases boundaries are insensitive to the strength of the alternation in next-nearest neighbor interaction. These results are consistent with the analysis based on the nonlinear $σ$ model and exact solution on the ferromagnetic-nonmagnetic phase boundary.

Characterization of Topological Phases of Spin-1/2 Frustrated Ferromagnetic-Antiferromagnetic Alternating Heisenberg Chains by Entanglement Spectrum

The topological classification of a series of frustration-induced spin-gap phases in the spin-1/2 ferromagnetic--antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with next-nearest-neighbour interaction reported in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 82, 064703 (2013) is confirmed using two kinds of entanglement spectra defined by different divisions of the whole chain. For the numerical calculation, the iDMRG method is used. The results are consistent with the valence bond solid picture proposed in the previous paper.

Ground-State Phases of Anisotropic Mixed Diamond Chains with Spins 1 and 1/2

The ground-state phases of anisotropic mixed diamond chains with spins 1 and 1/2 are investigated. Both single-site and exchange anisotropies are considered. We find the phases consisting of an array of uncorrelated spin-1 clusters separated by singlet dimers. Except in the simplest case where the cluster consists of a single $S=1$ spin, this type of ground state breaks the translational symmetry spontaneously. Although the mechanism leading to this type of ground state is the same as that in the isotropic case, it is nonmagnetic or paramagnetic depending on the competition between two types of anisotropy. We also find the Néel, period-doubled Néel, Haldane, and large-$D$ phases, where the ground state is a single spin cluster of infinite size equivalent to the spin-1 Heisenberg chain with alternating anisotropies. The ground-state phase diagrams are determined for typical sets of parameters by numerical analysis. In various limiting cases, the ground-state phase diagrams are determined analytically. The low-temperature behaviors of magnetic susceptibility and entropy are investigated to distinguish each phase by observable quantities. The relationship of the present model with the anisotropic rung-alternating ladder with spin-1/2 is also discussed.

Ground-State Phase Diagram of S=2 Heisenberg Chains with Alternating Single-Site Anisotropy

The ground-state phase diagram of $S=2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with coexisting uniform and alternating single-site anisotropies is investigated by the numerical exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group methods. We find the Haldane, large-$D$, Néel, period-doubled Néel, gapless spin fluid, quantized and partial ferrimagnetic phases. The Haldane phase is limited to the close neighborhood of the isotropic point. Within numerical accuracy, the transition from the gapless spin-fluid phase to the period-doubled Néel phase is a direct transition. Nevertheless, the presence of a narrow spin-gap phase between these two phases is suggested on the basis of the low-energy effective theory. The ferrimagnetic ground state is present in a wide parameter range. This suggests the realization of magnetized single-chain magnets with a uniform spin magnitude by controlling the environment of each magnetic ion without introducing ferromagnetic interactions.

Topological Phases of the Spin-1/2 Ferromagnetic-Antiferromagnetic Alternating Heisenberg Chain with Frustrated Next-Nearest-Neighbour Interaction

The spin-1/2 ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chain with ferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbour (NNN) interaction is investigated. The ground state is the Haldane phase for weak NNN interaction, and is the ferromagnetic phase for weak antiferromagnetic interaction. We find a series of topologically distinct spin-gap phases with various magnitudes of edge spins for strong NNN interaction. The phase boundaries between these phases are determined on the basis of the DMRG calculation with additional spins that compensate the edge spins. It is found that each of the exact solutions with short-range antiferromagnetic correlation on the ferromagnetic-nonmagnetic phase boundary is representative of each spin gap phase.

Statistical Transfer Matrix Study of the $\pm J$ Multileg Ising Ladders and Tubes

Finite temperature properties of symmetric $\pm J$ multileg Ising ladders and tubes are investigated using the statistical transfer matrix method. The temperature dependences of the specific heat and entropy are calculated. In the case of tubes, it is found that the ground state entropy shows an even-odd oscillation with respect to the number of legs. The same type of oscillation is also found in the ground state energy. On the contrary, these oscillations do not take place in ladders. From the temperature-dependence of the specific heat, it is found that the lowest excitation energy is 4J for even-leg ladders while it is 2J otherwise, The physical origin of these behaviors is discussed based on the structure of excitations.

Modified Spin Wave Analysis of Low Temperature Properties of Spin-1/2 Frustrated Ferromagnetic Ladder

Low temperature properties of the spin-1/2 frustrated ladder with ferromagnetic rungs and legs, and two different antiferromagnetic next nearest neighbor interaction are investigated using the modified spin wave approximation in the region with ferromagnetic ground state. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility and magnetic structure factors is calculated. The results are consistent with the numerical exact diagonalization results in the intermediate temperature range. Below this temperature range, the finite size effect is significant in the numerical diagonalization results, while the modified spin wave approximation gives more reliable results. The low temperature properties near the limit of the stability of the ferromagnetic ground state are also discussed.

Effects of Single-site Anisotropy on Mixed Diamond Chains with Spins 1 and 1/2

Effects of single-site anisotropy on mixed diamond chains with spins 1 and 1/2 are investigated in the ground states and at finite temperatures. There are phases where the ground state is a spin cluster solid, i.e., an array of uncorrelated spin-1 clusters separated by singlet dimers. The ground state is nonmagnetic for the easy-plane anisotropy, while it is paramagnetic for the easy-axis anisotropy. Also, there are the Néel, Haldane, and large-$D$ phases, where the ground state is a single spin cluster of infinite size and the system is equivalent to the spin-1 Heisenberg chain with alternating anisotropy. The longitudinal and transverse susceptibilities and entropy are calculated at finite temperatures in the spin-cluster-solid phases. Their low-temperature behaviors are sensitive to anisotropy.

Haldane Phases and Ferrimagnetic Phases with Spontaneous Translational Symmetry Breakdown in Distorted Mixed Diamond Chains with Spins 1 and 1/2

The ground states of two types of distorted mixed diamond chains with spins 1 and 1/2 are investigated using exact diagonalization, DMRG, and mapping onto low-energy effective models. In the undistorted case, the ground state consists of an array of independent spin-1 clusters separated by singlet dimers. The lattice distortion induces an effective interaction between cluster spins. When this effective interaction is antiferromagnetic, several Haldane phases appear with or without spontaneous translational symmetry breakdown (STSB). The transition between the Haldane phase without STSB and that with $(n+1)$-fold STSB ($n$ = 1, 2, and 3) belongs to the same universality class as the $(n+1)$-clock model. In contrast, when the effective interaction is ferromagnetic, the quantized and partial ferrimagnetic phases appear with or without STSB. An effective low-energy theory for the partial ferrimagnetic phase is presented.
