Abstract

Using density-matrix renormalization group calculations, ground-state properties of the spin-1 Heisenberg chain with exchange and single-ion anisotropies in an external field are studied. Our findings confirm and refine recent numerical and analytic results by Sengupta and Batista [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 217205 (2007)] on the same model. In particular, we present evidence for two types of biconical (or supersolid) and for two types of spin-flop (or superfluid) structures for chains of finite length. Basic features of the quantum phase diagram may be interpreted qualitatively in the framework of classical spin models.
