Entanglement Perturbation Theory for Infinite Quasi-1D Quantum Systems
  We develop Entanglement Perturbation Theory (EPT) for infinite Quasi-1D quantum systems. The spin 1/2 Heisenberg chain with ferromagnetic nearest neighbor (NN) and antiferromagnetic next nearest neighbor (NNN) interactions with an easy-plane anisotropy is studied as a prototypical system. The obtained accurate phase diagram is compared with a recent prediction [Phys.Rev.B,81,094430(2010)] that dimer and Neel orders appear alternately as the XXZ anisotropy Delta approaches the isotropic limit Delta=1. The first and second transitions (across dimer, Neel, and dimer phases) are detected with improved accuracy at Delta\approx 0.722 and 0.930. The third transition (from dimer to Neel phases), previously predicted to be at Delta\approx 0.98, is not detected at this Delta in our method, raising the possibility that the second Neel phase is absent.
