Quantum spin chains and the Haldane gap

Affleck, I·1989·Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter

Abstract

One-dimensional antiferromagnets have exotic disordered ground states. As was first argued by Haldane (1983), there is an excitation gap for integer, but not half-integer, spin. The authors review the arguments for this behaviour based on field-theory mappings, the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem, exactly solvable models, finite-chain diagonalisation and real experiments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
