摘要
By utilizing tensor-network-based methods, we investigate the zero-and finite-temperature properties of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (HAF) model on an infinite Husimi lattice that contains 3/2 sites per triangle. The ground state of this model is found to possess vanishing local magnetization and is featureless; the spin-spin and dimer-dimer correlation functions are verified to decay exponentially, and its ground-state energy per site is determined to be e(0) = -0.4343(1), which is very close to that [e(0) = -0.4386(5)] of the intriguing kagome HAF model. The magnetization curve shows the absence of a zero-magnetization plateau, implying a gapless excitation. A 1/3-magnetization plateau with spin-up-up-down state is observed, which is selected and stabilized by quantum fluctuations. A ground-state phase diagram under magnetic fields is presented. Moreover, both magnetic susceptibility and the specific heat are studied, whose low-temperature behaviors reinforce the conclusion that the HAF model on the infinite Husimi lattice owns a gapless and featureless spin-liquid ground state.
