Quantum phases of the 1D anisotropic spin-1/2 frustrated ferromagnetic model: view point of quantum correlations

We have studied the ground state phases of the one-dimensional (1D) spin-1/2 anisotropic frustrated ferromagnetic model, using the numerical Lanczos method. We have focused on the quantum correlations as the concurrence and the quantum discord (QD) between the nearest neighbor (NN) and the next-nearest neighbor (NNN) spins. Numerical results show that the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL), the even-parity dimer, and the vector chiral phases can be distinguished from each other using the long-distance quantum correlations. Specially, the critical points are explicitly detected in the first derivative of the concurrence between the nearest neighbor spins with respect to the frustration parameter.
