  A modified spin-wave theory is applied to the one-dimensional quantum
Heisenberg model with long-range ferromagnetic interactions. Low-temperature
properties of this model are investigated. The susceptibility and the specific
heat are calculated; the relation between their behaviors and strength of the
long-range interactions is obtained. This model includes both the
Haldane-Shastry model and the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model; the
corresponding results in this paper are in agreement with the solutions of both
the models. It is shown that there exists an ordering transition in the region
where the model has longer-range interactions than the HS model. The critical
temperature is estimated.
