What is recorded here?
Pollmann, Turner, Berg and Oshikawa characterized the Haldane phase through an even degeneracy of its entire entanglement spectrum. Their matrix-product-state analysis relates this degeneracy to how symmetry acts on the Schmidt states. Bond-centered inversion, time reversal or the dihedral group of spin rotations can each protect the nontrivial structure. This identifies the phase even when conventional string order or zero-energy physical edge states are absent. Numerical spin-chain examples and a symmetry-preserving bond-weakening process illustrate the distinction from a trivial phase.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
The derivation uses a canonical pure matrix-product-state description with a unique leading transfer eigenvalue and the nontrivial symmetry sector. Preserving a symmetry alone does not force every state into the Haldane phase. Inversion protection refers to an inversion-symmetric cut; ordinary translation symmetry is not the essential protection. Bond weakening preserves an antisymmetric state sector and need not end in the absolute ground state of the disconnected halves. The numerical demonstrations use finite bond dimension, and the general classification of all one-dimensional gapped phases is deferred in this source.
