Antiferromagnetic sawtooth chain with Heisenberg and Ising bonds

The sawtooth chain with pairs of S=1/2 spins interacting with XXZ-interactions placed on each second tooth is considered. All other interaction bonds are taken to be of Ising type. Exact statistical mechanical solution of the model within the direct transfer-matrix technique is obtained. The solutio...
