Ground State Phase Diagram of Frustrated S=1 XXZ chains : Chiral Ordered Phases
Abstract
The ground-state phase diagram of frustrated S=1 XXZ spin chains with the competing nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic couplings is studied using the infinite-system density-matrix renormalization-group method. We find six different phases, namely, the Haldane, gapped chiral, gapless chiral, double Haldane, N\'eel, and double N\'eel (uudd) phases. The gapped and gapless chiral phases are characterized by the spontaneous breaking of parity, in which the long-range order parameter is a chirality, l = SlxSl+1y-SlySl+1x, whereas the spin correlation decays either exponentially or algebraically. These chiral ordered phases appear in a broad region in the phase diagram for < 0.95, where is an exchange-anisotropy parameter. The critical properties of phase transitions are also studied.
