@inproceedings{Bolina1999ACA, title={A continuum approximation for the excitations of the (1,1,...,1) interface in the quantum Heisenberg model}, author={Oscar Bolina and Pierluigi Contucci and Bruno Nachtergaele and Shannon Starr}, year={1999} }
It is shown that, with an appropriate scaling, the energy of low-lying excitations of the (1;1;:::;1) interface in the d-dimensional quantum Heisenberg model are given by the spectrum of the (d 1)-dimensional Laplacian on a suitable domain.
