Quantum Spin Chains And Luttinger Liquids With Junctions : Analytical And Numerical Studies

We present in this thesis a series of studies on the physical properties of some one dimensional systems. In particular we study the low energy properties of various spin chains and a junction of Luttinger wires. For spin chains we specifically look at the role of perturbations like frustrating inter...
