Abstract:
We establish a KAM theorem for constructing analytic quasi-periodic equilibrium configurations in the classical anisotropic Heisenberg XYZ spin chain with quasi-periodic coupling and a small external magnetic field. The equilibrium equations reduce to a second-order nonlinear matrix difference equation with quasi-periodic coefficients. By introducing auxiliary parameters and employing a factorization method, we reformulate the problem into two first-order equations. Under Diophantine conditions on the frequency and appropriate non-degeneracy assumptions, we prove the existence of analytic quasi-periodic solutions via a Nash-Moser iteration scheme. The proof relies on solving twisted cohomology equations and a reducibility lemma. As an application, we obtain the existence of quasi-periodic spin patterns for the Heisenberg XYZ model with small quasi-periodic perturbations.
