dc.descriptionThe Spin-1/2 Heisenberg Model (HM) is investigated using a block-spin renormalization approach on Kagome and triangular lattices. In both cases, after coarse graining the triangles on original lattice and truncation of the Hilbert space to the triangular ground state subspace, HM reduces to an effective model on a triangular lattice in terms of the triangular-block degrees of freedom i.e. the spin and the chirality quantum numbers. The chirality part of the effective Hamiltonian captures the essential difference between the two lattices. It is seen that simple eigenstates can be constructed for the effective model whose energies serve as upper bounds on the exact ground state energy of HM, and chiral-ordered variational states have high energies compared to the other variational states.
