Competition between plaquette and dimer phases in Heisenberg chains

Abstract

We consider a class of one-dimensional Heisenberg spin models (plaquette chains) related to the recently found 1/5-depleted square-lattice Heisenberg system CaV4O9. A number of exact and exact-numerical results concerning the properties of the competing dimer and resonating plaquette phases are presented.
