| Sumario: | We determine the conditions for the existence of nontransverse factorizing magnetic fields in general spin arrays with anisotropic XYZ couplings of arbitrary range. It is first shown that a uniform, maximally aligned, completely separable eigenstate can exist just for fields hs parallel to a principal plane and forming four straight lines in the field space, with the alignment direction different from that of hs and determined by the anisotropy. Such a state always becomes a nondegenerate ground state for sufficiently strong (yet finite) fields along these lines, in both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic-type systems. In antiferromagnetic chains, this field coexists with the nontransverse factorizing field h i s associated with a degenerate N´eel-type separable ground state, which is shown to arise at a level crossing in a finite chain. It is also demonstrated for arbitrary spin that pairwise entanglement reaches full range in the vicinity of both hs and h i s , vanishing at hs but approaching small yet finite side limits at h i s , which are analytically determined. The behavior of the block entropy and entanglement spectrum in their vicinity is also analyzed. |
