Abstract
Using the (dynamical) density-matrix renormalization group method, we study the low-energy physics of three-leg antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model where the periodic boundary conditions are applied in the rung direction. We confirm that the spin excitations are always gapped as long as the intraring couplings form a regular triangle. From precise finite-size-scaling analyses of the spin gap and dimerization order parameter, we also find that the spin gap is collapsed by very small asymmetric modulation of the intraring couplings. Moreover, the dynamical spin structure factors on the intraleg and interleg correlations are calculated. It is demonstrated that the low-lying structure of the interleg spectra is particularly affected by the asymmetric modulation.
