Plaquette expansion in lattice Hamiltonian models
- Research Centre for High Energy Physics, School of Physics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria 3052 (Australia)
The Lanczos method in operator form is applied to a general lattice Hamiltonian and expressions for the first few Lanczos matrices in terms of the connected Hamiltonian moments [l angle][ital H][sup [ital n]][r angle][sub [ital c]] and the number of plaquettes, [ital N][sub [ital p]], are obtained. Expansions in 1/[ital N][sub [ital p]] suggest a very simple general form for the first few terms in the 1/[ital N][sub [ital p]] expansions for all [alpha][sub [ital n]] and [beta][sub [ital n]]. For the one-dimensional Heisenberg spin chain it is demonstrated that the ground-state eigenvalue of the tridiagonal Lanczos matrix derived from this plaquette expansion approaches the true infinite lattice limit as the number of terms in the plaquette expansion is increased.
