Quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets: a survey of the activity in Florence (Review)

Over the years the research group in Florence (Firenze) has produced a number of theoretical results concerning the statistical mechanics of quantum antiferromagnetic models, which range from the theory of two-magnon Raman scattering to the characterization of the phase transitions in quantum low-dimensional antiferromagnetic models. Our research activity was steadily aimed to the understanding of experimental observations.
