15 Jan 2007 | Subject: | Strongly Correlated Electrons | Abstract: | We introduce several exact models for SU(3) spin chains: (1) a translationally invariant parent Hamiltonian involving four-site interactions for the trimer chain, with a three-fold degenerate ground state. We provide numerical evidence that the elementary excitations of this model transform under representation 3bar of SU(3) if the original spins of the model transform under rep. 3. (2) a family of parent Hamiltonians for valence bond solids of SU(3) chains with spin reps. 6, 10, and 8 on each lattice site. We argue that of these three models, only the latter two exhibit spinon confinement and a Haldane gap in the excitation spectrum. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0701354 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
