Spectral Mapping Theorem between SU(N) and SU(Ns/N) Heisenberg Models and Exact Diagonalization of SU(4) and SU(7) Long-Range Ordered Phases on the Triangular Lattice

We first show that, for the SU(N) Heisenberg model with isotropic two-site interactions on an arbitrary lattice of Ns sites, the full spectrum in its singlet sector (when N divides Ns) is the negative of the full spectrum in its singlet sector of the SU(Ns/N) Heisenberg model defined on the same lattice. This theorem, valid for models with the fundamental irreducible representation (irrep) at each lattice site, follows naturally from a transposition operation in the basis of Standard Young Tableaux (SYTs). Second, this basis -- previously recognized as particularly convenient for exact diagonalization (ED) of SU(N) Heisenberg models -- admits an efficient, memory-saving implementation, thereby enabling large-scale diagonalizations for unprecedented system sizes Ns and numbers of colors N>3. We apply these ideas to an ED study of the SU(4) and SU(7) Heisenberg models on the triangular lattice (TL), extending the calculations up to Ns=28 sites. In particular, starting from the SU(4) case, whose nearest-neighbor ground state remains debated, we confirm that next-nearest-neighbor couplings stabilize four-sublattice long-range order. We further find that increasing the number of colors from N=4 to N=7 provides another route toward a Néel-like ground state, even without such additional couplings. N = 4 to N = 7 provides another route toward a Néel-like ground state, even without such additional couplings.
