由具有SU(2)对称性的张量网络系统构造正方晶格上的自旋液体

Systematic construction of spin liquids on the square lattice from tensor networks with SU(2) symmetry

摘要:

我们详细阐述了一个简单的分类计划的所有秩5 SU(2)-自旋旋转对称张量根据i)现场物理自旋$S$,(ii)本地希尔伯特空间$V^{\otimes 4}$的四个虚拟(复合)自旋连接到每个网站和(iii)不可约表示的$C_{4v}$点群的正方形晶格。我们应用我们的方案绘制了一个完整的SU(2)-对称的对称和旋转不变的投影纠缠对态(PEPS)的键维数$D\leqslant 6$。所有已知的SU(2)对称PEPS的正方形格子上恢复和简单的推广,在某些情况下提供。更一般地说,我们的每一个对称类都可以与自旋液体的$({\cal D}-1)$维流形(潜在地)保持晶格对称性相关联,并根据给定键尺寸$D$的${\cal D}$独立张量来定义。此外,还可以构造出一般的(低维)PEPS族,它们明确地打破了(i)特定的点群晶格对称性(晶格向列相)或(ii)时间反演对称性(手征自旋液体)或(iii)SU(2)-自旋旋转对称性下降到$U(1)$(自旋向列相或Néel反铁磁体)。我们应用这个框架来寻找新的拓扑手性自旋液体,其特征在于定义明确的手征边缘模式,揭示了他们的纠缠谱。特别地,我们展示了双层PEPS的对称化如何导致具有SU(2)$_2$ Wess-Zumino-Witten模型描述的无隙边的手征拓扑态。

英文摘要:

We elaborate a simple classification scheme of all rank-5 SU(2)-spin rotational symmetric tensors according to i) the on-site physical spin-$S$, (ii) the local Hilbert space $V^{\otimes 4}$ of the four virtual (composite) spins attached to each site and (iii) the irreducible representations of the $C_{4v}$ point group of the square lattice. We apply our scheme to draw a complete list of all SU(2)-symmetric translationally and rotationally-invariant Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS) with bond dimension $D\leqslant 6$. All known SU(2)-symmetric PEPS on the square lattice are recovered and simple generalizations are provided in some cases. More generally, to each of our symmetry class can be associated a $({\cal D}-1)$-dimensional manifold of spin liquids (potentially) preserving lattice symmetries and defined in terms of ${\cal D}$ independent tensors of a given bond dimension $D$. In addition, generic (low-dimensional) families of PEPS explicitly breaking either (i) particular point-group lattice symmetries (lattice nematics) or (ii) time reversal symmetry (chiral spin liquids) or (iii) SU(2)-spin rotation symmetry down to $U(1)$ (spin nematics or Néel antiferromagnets) can also be constructed. We apply this framework to search for new topological chiral spin liquids characterized by well-defined chiral edge modes, as revealed by their entanglement spectrum. In particular, we show how the symmetrization of a double-layer PEPS leads to a chiral topological state with a gapless edge described by a SU(2)$_2$ Wess-Zumino-Witten model.
