This is an introductory review of the physics of quantum spin liquid states. Quantum
magnetism is a rapidly evolving field, and recent developments reveal that the ground states …

Physics of the Kitaev model: Fractionalization, dynamic correlations, and material connections

M Hermanns, I Kimchi, J Knolle - Annual Review of Condensed …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Quantum spin liquids have fascinated condensed matter physicists for decades because of
their unusual properties such as spin fractionalization and long-range entanglement. Unlike …

Materials design of Kitaev spin liquids beyond the Jackeli–Khaliullin mechanism

Y Motome, R Sano, S Jang, Y Sugita… - Journal of Physics …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
The Kitaev spin liquid provides a rare example of well-established quantum spin liquids in
more than one dimension. It is obtained as the exact ground state of the Kitaev spin model …

Dynamics of fractionalization in quantum spin liquids

J Knolle, DL Kovrizhin, JT Chalker, R Moessner - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We present the theory of dynamical spin response for the Kitaev honeycomb model,
obtaining exact results for the structure factor (SF) in gapped and gapless, Abelian and non …

Exactly solvable Kitaev model in three dimensions

S Mandal, N Surendran - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2009 - APS
We introduce a spin-1 2 model in three dimensions which is a generalization of the well-
known Kitaev model on a honeycomb lattice. Following Kitaev, we solve the model exactly …

Classification of gapless spin liquids in three-dimensional Kitaev models

K O'Brien, M Hermanns, S Trebst - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
Frustrated quantum magnets can harbor unconventional spin-liquid ground states in which
the elementary magnetic moments fractionalize into new emergent degrees of freedom …

Family of non-Abelian Kitaev models on a lattice: Topological condensation and confinement

H Bombin, MA Martin-Delgado - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2008 - APS
We study a family of non-Abelian topological models in a lattice that arise by modifying the
Kitaev model through the introduction of single-qudit terms. The effect of these terms …

Fidelity susceptibility and long-range correlation in the Kitaev honeycomb model

S Yang, SJ Gu, CP Sun, HQ Lin - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and …, 2008 - APS
We study exactly both the ground-state fidelity susceptibility and bond-bond correlation
function in the Kitaev honeycomb model. Our results show that the fidelity susceptibility can …
