Jordan-Wigner fermionization for the one-dimensional Bariev model of three coupled XY chains

The Jordan-Wigner fermionization for the one-dimensional Bariev model of three coupled XY chains is formulated. The Lax operator in terms of fermion operators and the quantum R-matrix are presented explicitly. Furthermore, the graded reflection equations and their solutions are discussed.Comment: 10 pages, no figur

Open t-J chain with boundary impurities

We study integrable boundary conditions for the supersymmetric t-J model of correlated electrons which arise when combining static scattering potentials with dynamical impurities carrying an internal degree of freedom. The latter differ from the bulk sites by allowing for double occupation of the local orbitals. The spectrum of the resulting Hamiltonians is obtained by means of the algebraic Bethe Ansatz.Comment: LaTeX2e, 9p

Quantum integrability and exact solution of the supersymmetric U model with boundary terms

The quantum integrability is established for the one-dimensional supersymmetric $U$ model with boundary terms by means of the quantum inverse scattering method. The boundary supersymmetric $U$ chain is solved by using the coordinate space Bethe ansatz technique and Bethe ansatz equations are derived. This provides us with a basis for computing the finite size corrections to the low lying energies in the system.Comment: 4 pages, RevTex. Some cosmetic changes. The version to appear in Phys. Rev.

New solutions to the Reflection Equation and the projecting method

New integrable boundary conditions for integrable quantum systems can be constructed by tuning of scattering phases due to reflection at a boundary and an adjacent impurity and subsequent projection onto sub-spaces. We illustrate this mechanism by considering a gl(m<n)-impurity attached to an open gl(n)-invariant quantum chain and a Kondo spin S coupled to the supersymmetric t-J model.Comment: Latex2e, no figure

Integrable variant of the one-dimensional Hubbard model

A new integrable model which is a variant of the one-dimensional Hubbard model is proposed. The integrability of the model is verified by presenting the associated quantum R-matrix which satisfies the Yang-Baxter equation. We argue that the new model possesses the SO(4) algebra symmetry, which contains a representation of the $\eta$-pairing SU(2) algebra and a spin SU(2) algebra. Additionally, the algebraic Bethe ansatz is studied by means of the quantum inverse scattering method. The spectrum of the Hamiltonian, eigenvectors, as well as the Bethe ansatz equations, are discussed

A gapless charge mode induced by the boundary states in the half-filled Hubbard open-chain

We discuss the ground state and some excited states of the half-filled Hubbard model defined on an open chain with L sites, where only one of the boundary sites has a different value of chemical potential. We consider the case when the boundary site has a negative chemical potential -p and the Hubbard coupling U is positive. By an analytic method we show that when p is larger than the transfer integral some of the ground-state solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations become complex-valued. It follows that there is a ``surface phase transition'' at some critical value p_c; when p<p_c all the charge excitations have the gap for the half-filled band, while there exists a massless charge mode when p>p_c.Comment: Revtex, 25 pages, 3 eps figures; Full revision with Appendixes adde

Thermodynamics of an integrable model for electrons with correlated hopping

A new supersymmetric model for electrons with generalized hopping terms and Hubbard interaction on a one-dimensional lattice is solved by means of the Bethe Ansatz. We investigate the phase diagram of this model by studying the ground state and excitations of the model as a function of the interaction parameter, electronic density and magnetization. Using arguments from conformal field theory we can study the critical exponents describing the asymptotic behaviour of correlation functions at long distances.Comment: 24 pp., latex+epsf, figures include

Friedel Oscillations in the Open Hubbard Chain

Using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG), we calculate critical exponents for the one-dimensional Hubbard model with open boundary conditions with and without additional boundary potentials at both ends. A direct comparison with open boundary condition Bethe Ansatz calculations provides a good check for the DMRG calculations on large system sizes. On the other hand, the DMRG calculations provide an independent check of the predictions of Conformal Field Theory, which are needed to obtain the critical exponents from the Bethe Ansatz. From Bethe Ansatz we predict the behaviour of the 1/L-corrected mean value of the Friedel oscillations (for the density and the magnetization) and the characteristic wave vectors, and show numerically that these conjectures are fulfilled with and without boundary potentials. The quality of the numerical results allows us to determine, for the first time, the behaviour of the coefficients of the Friedel oscillations as a function of the the Hubbard interaction.Comment: 12 pages, 16 figures; submitted to Phys.

Integrable impurities in Hubbard chain with the open boundary condition

The Kondo problem of two impurities in 1D strongly correlated electron system within the framework of the open boundary Hubbard chain is solved and the impurities, coupled to the ends of the electron system, are introduced by their scattering matrices with electrons so that the boundary matrices satisfy the reflecting integrability condition. The finite size correction of the ground state energy is obtained due to the impurities. Exact expressions for the low temperature specific heat contributed by the charge and spin parts of the magnetic impurities are derived. The Pauli susceptibility and the Kondo temperature are given explicitly. The Kondo temperature is inversely proportional to the density of electrons.Comment: 6 pages, Revtex, To appear in Europhysics Letter

Integrability of the Heisenberg Chains with Boundary Impurities and Their Bethe Ansatz

In this paper, we show the integrability of spin-1/2 XXZ Heisenberg chain with two arbitrary spin boundary Impurities. By using the fusion method, we generalize it to the spin-1 XXZ chain. Then the eigenvalues of Hamiltonians of these models are obtained by the means of Bethe ansatz method.Comment: 13 pages, latex, no figures, to be appeared in J.Phys.
