Abstract

A simple real-space renormalization method yields the ground-state energy of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet. We find the ground-state energy per spin for s=12 (-0.4438 in 1D, -0.6723 in 2D) and s=1 (-1.388 in 1D and -1.907 in 2D) to three-figure accuracy, using properties of relatively small odd-numbered clusters. Our results provide reasonable proof for long-range order in the ground state of the s=12 Heisenberg antiferromagnet in 2D.
