Understanding Spin Relaxation Through Conformal Transformations

This presentation explores the dynamics of the Heisenberg model featuring dissipation, focusing on spin precession and relaxation in the presence of a constant magnetic field. By employing conformal transformations and stereographic projection, we obtain exact solutions for the dissipation term, providing insights into the behavior of spins in two-dimensional space. The study underscores the importance of theoretical models in refining research inquiries, demonstrating the intricate relationship between spin dynamics and conformal mapping techniques.
