Dynamical correlation functions in the Calogero-Sutherland model

We compute the dynamical Green function and density-density correlation in the Calogero-Sutherland model for all integer values of the coupling constant. An interpretation of the intermediate states in terms of quasi-particles is found.Comment: 20pgs, (1 reference added

Dynamical Correlation Functions and Finite-size Scaling in Ruijsenaars-Schneider Model

The trigonometric Ruijsenaars-Schneider model is diagonalized by means of the Macdonald symmetric functions. We evaluate the dynamical density-density correlation function and the one-particle retarded Green function as well as their thermodynamic limit. Based on these results and finite-size scaling analysis, we show that the low-energy behavior of the model is described by the $C=1$ Gaussian conformal field theory under a new fractional selection rule for the quantum numbers labeling the critical exponents.Comment: 27 pages, PS file, to be published in Nucl.Phys.

The Yangian symmetry of the Hubbard Model

We discovered new hidden symmetry of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. We showthat the one-dimensional Hubbard model on the infinite chain has the infinite-dimensional algebra of symmetries. This algebra is a direct sum of two $sl(2)$-Yangians. This $Y(sl(2)) \oplus Y(sl(2))$ symmetry is an extension of the well-known $sl(2) \oplus sl(2)$ . The deformation parameters of the Yangians are equal up to the signs to the coupling constant of the Hubbard model hamiltonian.Comment: 7 pages, ITP-SB-93-6

Spinons in Conformal Field Theory

We study the $su(2)$ conformal field theory in its spinon description, adapted to the Yangian invariance. By evaluating the action of the Yangian generators on the primary fields, we find a new connection between this conformal field theory and the Calogero-Sutherland model with $su(2)$ spin. We use this connection to describe how the spinons are the quasi-particles spanning the irreducible Yangian multiplet, and also to exhibit operators creating the $N$-spinon highest weight vectors.Comment: 18 page

Yangian-invariant field theory of matrix-vector models

We extend our study of the field-theoretic description of matrix-vector models and the associated many-body problems of one dimensional particles with spin. We construct their Yangian-su(R) invariant Hamiltonian. It describes an interacting theory of a c=1 collective boson and a k=1 su(R) current algebra. When $R \geq 3$ cubic-current terms arise. Their coupling is determined by the requirement of the Yangian symmetry. The Hamiltonian can be consistently reduced to finite-dimensional subspaces of states, enabling an explicit computation of the spectrum which we illustrate in the simplest case.Comment: Extensive modifications in the construction of the spinon basis and the subsequent computations of eigenvalues and eigenvectors.

Algebra of one-particle operators for the Calogero model

An algebra ${\cal G}$ of symmetric {\em one-particle} operators is constructed for the Calogero model. This is an infinite-dimensional Lie-algebra, which is independent of the interaction parameter $\lambda$ of the model. It is constructed in terms of symmetric polynomials of raising and lowering operators which satisfy the commutation relations of the $S_N$-{\em extended} Heisenberg algebra. We interpret ${\cal G}$ as the algebra of observables for a system of identical particles on a line. The parameter $\lambda$, which characterizes (a class of) irreducible representations of the algebra, is interpreted as a statistics parameter for the identical particles.Comment: 23 pages, LaTe

Student Learning Outcomes of an Interdisciplinary Fashion Event

The purposes of a cross-college fashion show held at a Mid-Atlantic university were to: a) provide a platform for developing or emergent professionals to display their career talents, b) provide an opportunity for students to work collaboratively across multiple creative disciplines, c) give students a holistic academic experience, and d) support undergraduate scholarships. Such an interdisciplinary event for students from various majors across a university may stimulate the growth of knowledge and motivate real-life applications

Excited States of Calogero-Sutherland Model and Singular Vectors of the WNW_N Algebra

Using the collective field method, we find a relation between the Jack symmetric polynomials, which describe the excited states of the Calogero-Sutherland model, and the singular vectors of the $W_N$ algebra. Based on this relation, we obtain their integral representations. We also give a direct algebraic method which leads to the same result, and integral representations of the skew-Jack polynomials.Comment: LaTeX, 29 pages, 2 figures, New sections for skew-Jack polynomial and example of singular vectors adde

Symmetries and exact solutions of some integrable Haldane-Shastry like spin chains

By using a class of `anyon like' representations of permutation algebra, which pick up nontrivial phase factors while interchanging the spins of two lattice sites, we construct some integrable variants of $SU(M)$ Haldane-Shastry (HS) spin chain. Lax pairs and conserved quantities for these spin chains are also found and it is established that these models exhibit multi-parameter deformed or nonstandard variants of $Y(gl_M)$ Yangian symmetry. Moreover, by projecting the eigenstates of Dunkl operators in a suitable way, we derive a class of exact eigenfunctions for such HS like spin chain and subsequently conjecture that these exact eigenfunctions would lead to the highest weight states associated with a multi-parameter deformed or nonstandard variant of $Y(gl_M)$ Yangian algebra. By using this conjecture, and acting descendent operator on the highest weight states associated with a nonstandard $Y(gl_2)$ Yangian algebra, we are able to find out the complete set of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for the related HS like spin-${1\over 2}$ chain. It turns out that some additional energy levels, which are forbidden due to a selection rule in the case of SU(2) HS model, interestingly appear in the spectrum of above mentioned HS like spin chain having nonstandard $Y(gl_2)$ Yangian symmetry.Comment: 35 pages, latex, no figures, minor type errors are corrected, version to appear in Nucl.
