Abstract:

Quantum Heisenberg spin systems (S=1/2) have been studied by quantum Monte Carlo method based on the equivalence theorem of Suzuki. Thermodynamic properties are investigated for ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic models on the triangular lattice. The difficulty in Monte Carlo simulation due to the negative sign of transition probability is also discussed.
