Ising configuration after rotation in one sub-lattice
I do not understand Eq. (5.9) in Auerbach's book Interacting electrons an quantum magnetism. Consider the general spin-$S$ Heisenberg model on a bipartite lattice with $N$ sites:
$$
H = \frac{1}{2} \...

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 $\...
