摘要
The Higgs mode is expected to exist in any system with the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the continuous symmetry. We make numerical study about the Higgs mode in the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice by the exact diagonalisation approach. Since the Higgs mode can couple with a pair of the Nambu-Goldstone modes, we calculate the dynamical correlation of the two spin operators, employing the finite temperature Lanczos method. Because the lattice size is severely limited, we make a careful discussion on procedures of finding evidences for the Higgs mode by numerical works. By the discussed procedures, we present numerical results for the dynamical correlation at zero temperature. Then we obtain clear evidences for the Higgs mode of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice.
