Exact results for resonating valence bonds states on 2D (narrow) systems

Abstract

It is shown that the problem of calculating spin-spin correlation functions, in the dimers RVB states, on a possibly diluted 2D square lattice, can be formulated in terms of a transfer matrix. The transfer matrix is used for exact numerical calculations of spin-spin correlation functions on ladders up to four units wide.
