Symmetries, correlation functions, and entanglement of general quantum Motzkin spin-chains

Varun Menon, Andi Gu, Ramis Movassagh

Motzkin spin-chains, which include 'colorless' (integer spin $s=1$) and 'colorful' ($s\ge 2$) variants, are one-dimensional (1D) local integer spin models notable for their lack…
