Hole Properties On and Off Magnetization Plateaus in 2-d   Antiferromagnets
  The phenomenon of magnetization plateaus in antiferromagnets under magnetic field has always been an important topic in magnetism. We propose to probe the elusive physics of plateaus in 2-d by considering hole-doped antiferromagnet and studying the signatures of magnetization plateaus in terms of the properties of holes, coupled to an effective gauge field generated by the spin sector. The latter mediates interaction between the holes, found to be algebraically decaying long-ranged with both Coulombic and dipolar forms outside plateau and short-ranged (local) inside plateau. The resulting hole spectral weight is significantly broadened off-plateau, while it remains sharply-peaked on-plateau. We also extend the result obtained for 1-d system where finite hole doping gives rise to a shift in the magnetization value of the plateaus.
