Spin Bose-Metal and Valence Bond Solid phases in a spin-1/2 model with ring exchanges on a four-leg triangular ladder
Matthew S. Block, D. N. Sheng, Olexei I. Motrunich +1
We study a spin-1/2 system with Heisenberg plus ring exchanges on a four-leg triangular ladder using the density matrix renormalization group and Gutzwiller variational wave functi…

Exotic Gapless Mott Insulators of Bosons on Multi-Leg Ladders
Matthew S. Block, Ryan V. Mishmash, Ribhu K. Kaul +3
We present evidence for an exotic gapless insulating phase of hard-core bosons on multi-leg ladders with a density commensurate with the number of legs. In particular, we study in…
