Luttinger liquid coupled to quantum spins: Flow equation approach to the Kondo necklace model

We study a lattice realization of a Luttinger liquid interacting with quantum spins in terms of an antiferromagnetic S=1/2 Heisenberg chain, where each spin is also coupled to a σ=1/2 Kondo spin degree of freedom. This model describes the low-energy spin dynamics in quasi-one-dimensional materials,...
