Abstract
We analyze the thermodynamic properties of the spin-S two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice with nearest and next-nearest neighbor couplings in the Neel phase (J_2/J_1<0.4) employing the quantum hierarchical reference theory (QHRT), a non-perturbative implementation of the renormalization group method to quantum systems. We investigate the staggered susceptibility, the structure factors and the correlation length at finite temperature and for different values of the frustration ratio. From the finite temperature results, we also extrapolate ground state properties, such as spin stiffness and spontaneous staggered magnetization, providing an estimate of the extent of quantum corrections. The behavior of these quantities as a function of frustration may provide some hint on the breakdown of the Neel phase at zero temperature for larger values of J_2.
