How to compute the MPS representation for a sequence of asymptotically gapped quantum spin chains

Suppose I have a sequence of gapped, spin-$1/2$, translationally invariant quantum spin chains $\{H_1, H_2,H_3\cdots\}$ with interactions of range $\leq 2$ (i.e. no further than nearest-neighbors). ...

What is the relation between the Holstein-Primakoff Transformation and Bethe's Ansatz for the Heisenberg Ferromagnet?

Bethe's Ansatz is a method to find the eigenenergies and eigenstates of the Heisenberg ferromagnet (see also spin waves). For a general n-excitation state it involves solving rather complicated ...

Goldstone mode as spin wave in 2D?

I'm trying to understand how Goldstone modes destroy long range order in 1D and 2D spin lattice. I started with a spin chain, using 1D XY-model, which has continuous symmetry. $H=- \sum_{<i j>} ...

Zero modes $a_j\sim e^{-\kappa j}$ in a semi-infinite quantum Ising chain?

As a way of analyzing the performance of quantum annealing, I've been studying quantum diffusion in fermionizable lattice models with zero modes. In particular, the 1+1D quantum Ising model, semi-...

How do we determine the statistics and spin of quasi-particles?

I am considering the Heisenberg XXZ model at the moment. In the literature it says that (in the $J\Delta\rightarrow\infty$ limit, i.e. the ferromagnetic Ising regime) one can either view low-energy ...

Some limiting cases of the Heisenberg XXZ model (2/2)

NOTE: Because this was a long question I have split it up in two different questions! For a course on quantum integrability I am reading these notes. (Franchini: Notes on Bethe Ansatz Techniques. ...
