Talk Title: Ground state phase diagram of the spin S=1/2 XXZ Heisenberg chain with alternating Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction
Talk Place: M236
Talk Time: 5-Nov-2019 9:00 am
The ground state phase diagram of a spin S=1/2 XXZ Heisenberg chain with spatially modulated Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction is studied using the continuum-limit bosonization approach and density matrix renormalization group computations. It is shown that at the effective continuum-limit bosonized theory of the model is given by the double frequency sine-Gordon model (DSG) where the frequencies i.e. the scaling dimensions of the two competing cosine perturbation terms depend on the effective anisotropy parameter . Exploring the ground state properties of the DSG model is show that the zero-temperature phase diagram contains the following four phases: (i) the ferromagnetic phase (FM) at (ii) the gapless Luttinger-liquid (LL) phase at (iii) the gapped composite (C1) phase characterized by coexistence of the long-range-ordered (LRO) dimerization pattern with the LRO alternating spin chirality pattern at and (iv) at at the gapped composite (C2) phase characterized in addition to the coexisting spin dimerization and alternating chirality patterns, by the presence of LRO antiferromagnetic order. The transition from the LL to the C1 phase at belongs to the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless universality class, while the transition at from C1 to C2 phase is of the Ising type.
