Competing phases in spin ladders with ring exchange and frustration
Alexandros Metavitsiadis, Sebastian Eggert
The ground state properties of spin-1/2 ladders are studied, emphasizing the role of frustration and ring exchange coupling. We present a unified field theory for ladders with gene…

Thermal Transport in a one-dimensional Z Spin Liquid
Alexandros Metavitsiadis, Wolfram Brenig
We study the dynamical thermal conductivity of the Kitaev spin model on a two-leg ladder. In contrast to conventional integrable one-dimensional spin systems, we show that heat tra…
