Functional renormalization group for three-dimensional quantum magnetism

Abstract

We formulate a pseudofermion functional renormalization group (PFFRG) scheme to address frustrated quantum magnetism in three dimensions. In a scenario where many numerical approaches fail due to sign problem or small system size, three-dimensional (3D) PFFRG allows for a quantitative investigation of the quantum spin problem and its observables. We illustrate 3D PFFRG for the simple cubic $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet, and benchmark it against other approaches, if available.
