Abstract

A real-space renormalization-group method well suited for studying phase transitions at T = 0 in quantum systems is presented and applied to a generalized spin 1/2 planar hamiltonian on the triangular lattice, which includes ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic XY models as limiting cases. This provides a description of the effects of frustration in quantum systems.
