Exact Solution and Correlations of a Quantum Dimer Model on the Checkerboard Lattice
arXiv:2003.12084 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.102.020401
Abstract
We present analytic results for a special dimer model on the {\em non-bipartite} and {\em non-planar} checkerboard lattice that does not allow for parallel dimers surrounding diagonal links. We {\em exactly} calculate the number of closed packed dimer coverings on finite checkerboard lattices under periodic boundary conditions, and determine all dimer-dimer correlations. The latter are found to vanish beyond a certain distance. We find that this solvable model, despite being non-planar, is in close kinship with well-known paradigm-setting planar counterparts that allow exact mappings to lattice gauge theory.
