Mapping of Parent Hamiltonians
From Abelian and non-Abelian Quantum Hall States to Exact Models of Critical Spin Chains
Language: English
Release Date: December 4, 2011
This monograph introduces an exact model for a critical spin chain with arbitrary spin S, which includes the Haldane--Shastry model as the special case S=1/2. While spinons in the Haldane-Shastry model obey abelian half-fermi statistics, the spinons in the general model introduced here obey non-abelian...
