Asymmetric destruction of the one-third magnetization plateau upon heating is found in the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnets by using the typical pure quantum state approach. The asymmetry originates from a density of states of low-lying excited states of ${N}_{\mathrm{s}}$ spin systems with magnetization $(1/3\ensuremath{-}2/{N}_{\mathrm{s}})$ that is larger than the density of states of low-lying states with magnetization $(1/3+2/{N}_{\mathrm{s}})$. The enhanced specific…
