Competing Glauber and Kawasaki Dynamics

Using a quantum formulation of the master equation we study a kinetic Ising model with competing stochastic processes: the Glauber dynamics with probability $p$ and the Kawasaki dynamics with probability $1 - p$. Introducing explicitely the coupling to a heat bath and the mutual static interaction of the spins the model can be traced back exactly to a Ginzburg Landau functional when the interaction is of long range order. The dependence of the correlation length on the temperature and on the probability $p$ is calculated. In case that the spins are subject to flip processes the correlation length disappears for each finite temperature. In the exchange dominated case the system is strongly correlated for each temperature.Comment: 9 pages, Revte

Analytical Bethe Ansatz for A2n−1(2),Bn(1),Cn(1),Dn(1)A^{(2)}_{2n-1}, B^{(1)}_n, C^{(1)}_n, D^{(1)}_n quantum-algebra-invariant open spin chains

We determine the eigenvalues of the transfer matrices for integrable open quantum spin chains which are associated with the affine Lie algebras $A^{(2)}_{2n-1}, B^{(1)}_n, C^{(1)}_n, D^{(1)}_n$, and which have the quantum-algebra invariance U_q(C_n), U_q(B_n), U_q(C_n), U_q(D_n)$, respectively.Comment: 14 pages, latex, no figures (a character causing latex problem is removed

Quantum Group Invariant Supersymmetric t-J Model with periodic boundary conditions

An integrable version of the supersymmetric t-J model which is quantum group invariant as well as periodic is introduced and analysed in detail. The model is solved through the algebraic nested Bethe ansatz method.Comment: 11 pages, LaTe

On the algebraic Bethe ansatz: Periodic boundary conditions

In this paper, the algebraic Bethe ansatz with periodic boundary conditions is used to investigate trigonometric vertex models associated with the fundamental representations of the non-exceptional Lie algebras. This formulation allow us to present explicit expressions for the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the respective transfer matrices.Comment: 36 pages, LaTex, Minor Revisio

The algebraic Bethe ansatz for open vertex models

We present a unified algebraic Bethe ansatz for open vertex models which are associated with the non-exceptional $A^{(2)}_{2n},A^{(2)}_{2n-1},B^{(1)}_n,C^{(1)}_n,D^{(1)}_{n}$ Lie algebras. By the method, we solve these models with the trivial K matrix and find that our results agree with that obtained by analytical Bethe ansatz. We also solve the $B^{(1)}_n,C^{(1)}_n,D^{(1)}_{n}$ models with some non-trivial diagonal K-matrices (one free parameter case) by the algebraic Bethe ansatz.Comment: Latex, 35 pages, new content and references are added, minor revisions are mad

Phase transition in an asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature Glauber model

An asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature Glauber model on a lattice is introduced. The dynamics of the particle-density and specially the large-time behavior of the system is studied. It is shown that the system exhibits two kinds of phase transition, a static one and a dynamic one.Comment: LaTeX, 9 pages, to appear in Phys. Rev. E (2001

Quantum spin chain with "soliton non-preserving" boundary conditions

We consider the case of an integrable quantum spin chain with "soliton non-peserving" boundary conditions. This is the first time that such boundary conditions have been considered in the spin chain framework. We construct the transfer matrix of the model, we study its symmetry and we find explicit expressions for its eigenvalues. Moreover, we derive a new set of Bethe ansatz equations by means of the analytical Bethe ansatz method.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, two appendices added, minor correction

osp(1∣2)osp(1|2) off-shell Bethe ansatz equation with boundary terms

This work is concerned with the quasi-classical limit of the boundary quantum inverse scattering method for the $osp(1|2)$ vertex model with diagonal $K$-matrices. In this limit Gaudin's Hamiltonians with boundary terms are presented and diagonalized. Moreover, integral representations for correlation functions are realized to be solutions of the trigonometric Knizhnik-Zamoldchikov equations.Comment: 38 pages, minor revison, LaTe
