Exact chiral spin liquids and mean-field perturbations of gamma matrix models on the ruby lattice
We theoretically studied an exactly solvable gamma matrix generalization of the Kitaev spin model on the ruby lattice, which is a honeycomb lattice with ‘expanded’ vertices and links. We find that this model displays an exceptionally rich phase diagram that includes (i) gapless phases with stable sp...
