Abstract
The ground state and excitation spectra of the Heisenberg spin chain with hole hopping are investigated by means of the numerical-diagonalization method and by the help of the Zhang-Arovas picture. As for the charge sector, two phases are found. It is shown that in the weak-hopping region, a phase separation occurs, while in the strong-hopping region, the system is in the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase. Irrespective of the presence of the spin gap, the present phase diagram is similar to that reported for the - chain with gapless spin excitation rather than to that for the magnetically-frustrated - chain with spin gap. For the spin sector, the string correlation is found to develop withstanding the hole doping except in a region, whose region is characterized by a generalized string correlation. This remains an open question to be studied in future.
