Title:Lieb-Schultz-Mattis Theorem for 1D Quantum Magnets with Antiunitary Translation and Inversion Symmetries
Abstract:
The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem is a fundamental result in condensed matter physics that relates symmetries to the ground state properties of quantum many-body systems. The conventional LSM theorem states that a 1d antiferromagnetic spin chain with spin-rotation and lattice-translation symmetries cannot have a unique gapped ground state if the spin per unit cell is half-integral. In this talk, I will present extensions of the LSM theorem for 1d quantum magnets with certain combinations of spin-rotation, spatial, and time-reversal symmetries. The results can be applied to a wider range of systems with spin interactions beyond the Heisenberg exchange interaction, such as Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and chiral three-spin interactions.
