Abstract

We study the ground-state phase diagram of the quantum model on the square lattice by means of an entangled-plaquette variational ansatz. In the range , we find classical magnetic order of Néel and collinear type, for , and respectively. For intermediate values of the ground state is a spin liquid (i.e., paramagnetic with no valence bond crystalline order). Our estimates of the entanglement entropy show that such a spin liquid is topological.
