Quantum Monte-Carlo simulation of SU(2N) Spin systems — •Jonas Schwab, Francesco Parisen Toldin, and Fakher F. Assaad — Institut für Theoretische Physik und Astrophysik, Universität Würzburg, Germany

We consider the spin-S, SU(2N) Heisenberg model corresponding to the irreducible representation of SU(2N) consisting of a Young tableau of N rows and 2S columns. In the large-S limit the spin wave approximation leads to spin ordering, whereas in the large-N limit a saddle point approximation favors dimerization. We show that this generalized SU(2N) spin model can be solved with sign-problem free determinantal quantum Monte-Carlo methods on any bipartite lattice so that the phase diagram in the S versus N plane can in principle be mapped out.
