Transition between critical antiferromagnetic phases in the - spin chain
Adam J. McRoberts, Chris Hooley, A. G. Green
The - spin chain is one of the canonical models of quantum magnetism, and has long been known to host a critical antiferromagnetic phase with power-law decay of spin corr…

A Generalised Haldane Map from the Matrix Product State Path Integral to the Critical Theory of the - Chain
F. Azad, Adam J. McRoberts, Chris Hooley +1
We study the - spin- chain using a path integral constructed over matrix product states (MPS). By virtue of its non-trivial entanglement structure, the MPS ansatz ca…
