Evolution from Kitaev to XXZ spin chains via distortion: Application to BaCo$_2$V$_2$O$_8$
BaCo$_2$V$_2$O$_8$ is a prototypical spin-orbit-coupled Ising-chain antiferromagnet that provides a unique platform for studying field-induced quantum magnetism. Under a transverse magnetic field, it exhibits unusual magnetic properties, including an anomalous staggered magnetization and a pronounced anisotropy of the...
