Spin-one Kitaev model, same but different?

ORAL

Abstract

We study various properties of the spin-one Kitaev model on honeycomb lattices consisting of two and three-leg ladder geometries using density matrix renormalization group. We discuss similarities to the spin-half model, and outline differences. Our results suggest that the spin-one model is a bona fide spin liquid candidate.
