    Exact conserved quantities on the cylinder II: off-critical case

    Get PDF
    With the aim of exploring a massive model corresponding to the perturbation of the conformal model [hep-th/0211094] the nonlinear integral equation for a quantum system consisting of left and right KdV equations coupled on the cylinder is derived from an integrable lattice field theory. The eigenvalues of the energy and of the transfer matrix (and of all the other local integrals of motion) are expressed in terms of the corresponding solutions of the nonlinear integral equation. The analytic and asymptotic behaviours of the transfer matrix are studied and given.Comment: enlarged version before sending to jurnal, second part of hep-th/021109

    On one-point functions for sinh-Gordon model at finite temperature

    Full text link
    Using fermionic basis we conjecture the exact formulae for the expectation values of local fields in sinh-Gordon model. The conjecture is checked against previously known results.Comment: 21 pages, some explanation on relation to the lattice model is adde

    Semiclassical Particle Spectrum of Double Sine-Gordon Model

    Full text link
    We present new theoretical results on the spectrum of the quantum field theory of the Double Sine Gordon model. This non-integrable model displays different varieties of kink excitations and bound states thereof. Their mass can be obtained by using a semiclassical expression of the matrix elements of the local fields. In certain regions of the coupling-constants space the semiclassical method provides a picture which is complementary to the one of the Form Factor Perturbation Theory, since the two techniques give information about the mass of different types of excitations. In other regions the two methods are comparable, since they describe the same kind of particles. Furthermore, the semiclassical picture is particularly suited to describe the phenomenon of false vacuum decay, and it also accounts in a natural way the presence of resonance states and the occurrence of a phase transition.Comment: 32 pages, latex, 8 figure

    The open XXZ and associated models at q root of unity

    Full text link
    The generalized open XXZ model at qq root of unity is considered. We review how associated models, such as the qq harmonic oscillator, and the lattice sine-Gordon and Liouville models are obtained. Explicit expressions of the local Hamiltonian of the spin 12{1 \over 2} XXZ spin chain coupled to dynamical degrees of freedom at the one end of the chain are provided. Furthermore, the boundary non-local charges are given for the lattice sine Gordon model and the qq harmonic oscillator with open boundaries. We then identify the spectrum and the corresponding Bethe states, of the XXZ and the q harmonic oscillator in the cyclic representation with special non diagonal boundary conditions. Moreover, the spectrum and Bethe states of the lattice versions of the sine-Gordon and Liouville models with open diagonal boundaries is examined. The role of the conserved quantities (boundary non-local charges) in the derivation of the spectrum is also discussed.Comment: 31 pages, LATEX, minor typos correcte
