Loop-gas description of the localized-magnon states on the kagome lattice with open boundary conditions

The high-field regime of the spin-s XXZ antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice gives rise to macroscopically degenerate ground states thanks to a completely flat lowest single-magnon band. The corresponding excitations can be localized on loops in real space and have been coined "localized magno...
