Abstract

The exact solution of the problem of the ground state of theXY-spin system on a deformed chain is found. At finite magnetizationm it is characterized by the double periodic structure and has a finite-band spectrum of spin excitations. Atm ≠ 0 the phase transition from the incommensurate into the dimerized state is accompanied by the soliton lattice formation.
