Resonating-valence-bond theory for the square-planar lattice. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • The short-range resonating-valence-bond (RVB) wave function with nearest-neighbor (NN) spin pairings only is investigated as a possible description for the Heisenberg model on a square-planar lattice. A type of long-range order associated to this RVB Ansatz is identified along with some qualitative consequences involving lattice distortions, excitations, and their coupling. 1991 The American Physical Society.
