Chiral entanglement in triangular lattice models
arXiv:0706.3612 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.77.012106
Abstract
We consider the low energy spectrum of spin-1/2 two-dimensional triangular lattice models subject to a ferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction and a three spin chiral interaction of variable strength. Initially, we consider quasi-one dimensional ladder systems of various geometries. Analytical results are derived that yield the behavior of the ground states, their energies and the transition points. The entanglement properties of the ground state of these models are examined and we find that the entanglement depends on the lattice geometry due to frustration effects. To this end, the chirality of a given quantum state is used as a witness of tripartite entanglement. Finally, the two dimensional model is investigated numerically by means of exact diagonalization and indications are presented that the low energy sector is a chiral spin liquid.
