Abstract

An approximation method, based on dimer coverings, for the ground state of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg lattice is described. The working of the method is demonstrated by some small-system calculations. The method introduces a possible mechanism for symmetry breaking for two- and higher-dimensional systems.
