Resonating valence bond liquid physics on the triangular lattice
arXiv:cond-mat/0205029 · doi:10.1143/PTPS.145.37
Abstract
We give an account of the short-range RVB liquid phase on the triangular lattice, starting from an elementary introduction to quantum dimer models including details of the overlap expansion used to generate them. The fate of the topological degeneracy of the state under duality is discussed, as well as recent developments including its possible relevance for quantum computing.
