Manipulation of electromagnetic wave propagation in quantum-spin-chain medium
Taras Krokhmalskii, Taras Verkholyak, Ostap Baran +3
We consider a simple model of one-dimensional magnetic crystal and examine the propagation of an electromagnetic wave through such a medium. Calculating the dispersion relation ${\…

Approaching Kasteleyn transition in frustrated quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets
Katarina Karlova, Afonso Rufino, Taras Verkholyak +5
We show that the Kasteleyn transition, the abrupt proliferation of infinite strings of defects in classical dimer and related models, can also be relevant for frustrated 2d quantum…

Thermodynamic properties of the macroscopically degenerate tetramer-dimer phase of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the diamond-decorated square lattice
Katarina Karlova, Andreas Honecker, Nils Caci +3
The spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the diamond-decorated square lattice in the presence of a magnetic field displays various quantum phases including the Lieb-Mattis ferrim…
