    The AKLT spin chain is the prototypical example of a frustration-free quantum spin system with a spectral gap above its ground state. Affleck, Kennedy, Lieb, and Tasaki also conjectured that the two-dimensional version of their model on the hexagonal lattice exhibits a spectral gap. In this pa- per, we introduce a family of variants of the two-dimensional AKLT model depending on a positive integer n, which is defined by decorating the edges of the hexagonal lattice with one-dimensional AKLT spin chains of length n. We prove that these decorated models are gapped for all n ≥ 3.
