Graph-Theoretic Formulation of Hamiltonian and Ground-State Sign Structures in Heisenberg Antiferromagnets
We study Heisenberg antiferromagnets through a graph-theoretic representation of their Hamiltonians. In the computational basis of a fixed-magnetization sector, the Heisenberg Hamiltonian equals a constant minus the weighted Laplacian of a graph whose vertices are spin configurations and whose edges connect configurati...
