Variational study of the magnetization plateaus in the spin-1/2 kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet: An approach from vision transformer neural quantum states

This study uses Vision Transformer Neural Quantum States (NQS) to model magnetization plateaus in a spin-1/2 kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet. The approach successfully confirms robust plateaus at m=1/3, 5/9, and 7/9 by finding valence bond crystal states. It also investigates the challenging m=1/9 plateau, revealing two competing VBC patterns.
