Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The spin nanotube was theoretically investigated using the large-scale numerical diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group analysis. We found a novel quantum phase transition from the spin gap phase to the gapless spin liquid phase with respect to the spin anisotropy. It was also found that the quantum multispin exchange interaction induces another spin gap phase based on a different mechanism. In addition our theoretical study predicted a novel magnetic field induced phase, which is the chiral liquid phase.
