Problem

Repeat the analysis of this section for two spin-1/21/2 bosons, and show that the resultant spin exchange is ferromagnetic. Find the exchange coupling. Note that two bosons are allowed to occupy the same site even when they have the same spin, and the energy cost for such double occupancy is also UU.
