Z2 [Z subscript 2] spin liquids in the S=1/2 Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice: A projective symmetry-group study of Schwinger fermion mean-field states
Due to strong geometric frustration and quantum fluctuation, the S = 1/2 quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice has long been considered as an ideal platform to realize a spin liquid (SL), a phase exhibiting fractionalized excitations without any symmetry breaking. A recent numer...
