Fig. 1: Schematic of the variational state used in our calculations. There is a 2⁢𝜋/3 gauge flux per kagome unit cell, which leads to a tripling of the magnetic unit cell, formed by the lattice vectors shown in blue. The state is parameterized by fluxes through the up and down triangles 𝜙1 and 𝜙2, respectively.
