摘要: Low-lying magnon dispersion in a $S=1$ Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (AF) chain is analyzed using the non-Abelian density-matrix-renormalization-group (DMRG) method. The scattering length ${a}_{\mathrm{b}}$ of boundary coupling and intermagnon $a$ are determined. found to exhibit characteristic diverging behavior at crossover point. In contrast, Haldane gap $\ensuremath{\Delta}$, velocity $v$, remain constant crossover. Our method allowed estimation $S=2$ AF be $\ensuremath{\Delta}=0.0891623(9)$ longer than correlation $\ensuremath{\xi}$.
