Is there a relationship between spin correlation and entanglement entropy?

Can someone explain whether there is a connection between spin correlation in say a 1D Heisenberg chain and its entanglement entropy? I'd say, albeit naively, that there is just from their concepts. ...

Writing the Random Matrix model corresponding to any physical hamitonian model

I am an amateur in Random Matrix Theory (RMT). In RMT, we start with ensemble of a random matrices of a certain symmetry classes (GOE, GUE..) to find the various distribution of our interest, e.g.- ...

How can I actually get to the AKLT state from a product state in finite depth?

I'm currently learning about symmetry-protected topological phases in one dimension. The ground state of the AKLT model provides one such example. In particular, the AKLT state for any length $L$ ...

Jordan-Wigner Transformations on fermionic system

I've been trying to use Jordan-Wigner Transformations on a given fermionic Hamiltonian. The given Hamiltonian is: $$ \hat{H}= -\sum_{m=1}^{N}(J_z \hat{S}_{m}^{z} \hat{S}_{m+1}^{z} + \frac{J_{\perp}}{2}...

Parity of XYZ model ground state

I am considering the XYZ Hamiltonian (with PBC) $$\widehat{H}_{\mathrm{XYZ}}=\sum_{i=1}^{N} \left(\hat{\sigma}_{i}^{x} \hat{\sigma}_{i+1}^{x}+J_{y}\hat{\sigma}_{i}^{y} \hat{\sigma}_{i+1}^{y}+J_{z}\hat{...

Writing down a Hamiltonian that couples spin and phonons

I am studying spin dynamics and am trying to write down a Hamiltonian that couples the spins with the phonons. I have the following interacting spin Hamiltonian $$H_{s}=\sum h_{i}S_{i}+H_{\text{...

Time evolution of spin with Anti-symmetric (Dzyaloshinkii-Moriya) interaction

I am trying to simulate the time evolution of a spin in spin chain interacting via Dzyaloshinkii-Moriya interaction. The Hamiltonian is of the form $$H_{A}=J_{A}\sum_{i}(S^{x}_{i}S_{i+1}^{y}-S^{x}_{i+...

Heisenberg equation of motion and continuum limit

Given the quite simple Hamiltonian $$\hat{\mathcal{H}}=\sum_n\big(\hat{S}_n^+\hat{S}^-_{n+1}+\hat{S}_n^-\hat{S}^+_{n+1}\big)$$ on a 1D spin chain, it basically interchanges two spins lying next to ...

Commutator of Hamiltonian and the spin sum

For a 1-D Heisenberg quantum spin chain the Hamiltonian is given by: $$H=-\sum_{j=0}^{N-1} J_{i,i+1}\boldsymbol{\sigma}_j^i \cdot\boldsymbol{\sigma}_{j+1}^i -\sum_{j=0}^{N}h_j\sigma_j^z$$ where $\...

Is there any study about using DMRG to simulate two spin chains coupled at only several sites on each chain?

Is there any study about the DMRG simulation of such kind of systems? or Each blue site is a spin, for example. Only one or several spins on each chain are coupled.
