Ground-State Analysis for an Exactly Solvable Coupled-Spin Hamiltonian

We introduce a Hamiltonian for two interacting su(2) spins. We use a mean-field analysis and exact Bethe ansatz results to investigate the ground-state properties of the system in the classical limit, defined as the limit of infinite spin (or highest weight). Complementary insights are provided thro...
