Abstract
The purpose of the present paper is two-fold. On the one hand, we review some recent studies on the low-temperature strong-field thermodynamic properties of frustrated quantum spin antiferromagnets which admit the so-called localized-magnon eigenstates. One the other hand, we provide some complementary new results. We focus on the linear independence of the localized-magnon states, the estimation of their degeneracy with the help of auxiliary classical lattice-gas models and the analysis of the contribution of these states to thermodynamics.
Paper based on the invited talk given by J. Richter at the International Conference "Statistical Physics 2006. Condensed Matter: Theory and Applications" dedicated to the 90th anniversary of Ilya Lifshitz (Kharkiv, 11-15 September, 2006)
