The ground state of the Kondo insulator

Abstract The Kondo insulator (KI) is the state of an electron liquid in the Kondo lattice at half filling, studied within the mean field approach. We demonstrate, that the $${Z}_2$$ Z 2 -field, which is formed by interaction between electrons and local moments, leads to an insulator state in a latti...
