Magnon Energy Renormalization and Low-Temperature Thermodynamics of O(3) Heisenberg Ferromagnets

We present the perturbation theory for lattice magnon fields of \(D\)-dimensional O(3) Heisenberg ferromagnet. The effective Hamiltonian for the lattice magnon fields is obtained starting from the effective Lagrangian, with two dominant contributions that describe magnon-magnon interactions identified as a usual gradient term for the unit vector field and a part originating in the Wess-Zumino-Witten term of effective Lagrangian. Feynman diagrams for lattice scalar fields with derivative couplings are introduced, on basis of which we investigate the influence of magnon-magnon interactions on magnon self-energy and ferromagnet free energy. We also comment appearance of spurious terms in the low-temperature series for the free energy by examining magnon-magnon interactions and internal symmetry of the effective Hamiltonian (Lagrangian).
