Ground state of the spin-1/2 kagome-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet
Open accessAbstract
Using series expansions around the dimer limit, we find that the ground state of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice appears to be a valence bond crystal (VBC) with a 36 site unit cell, and ground-state energy per site $E=\ensuremath{-}0.433\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.001\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{J}$. It consists of a honeycomb lattice of ``perfect hexagons.'' The energy difference between the ground state and other ordered states with the maximum number of perfect hexagons, such as a stripe-ordered state, is of order $0.001\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{J}$. The expansion is also done for the 36 site system with periodic boundary conditions; its energy per site is $0.005\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.001\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{J}$ lower than the infinite system, consistent with exact diagonalization results. Every unit cell of the VBC has two singlet states whose degeneracy is not lifted to sixth order in the expansion. We estimate this energy difference to be less than $0.001\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{J}$. The dimerization order parameter is found to be robust. Two leading orders of perturbation theory give lowest triplet excitations to be dispersionless and confined to the perfect hexagons.

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.
