Excited states nonlinear integral equations for an integrable anisotropic spin 1 chain

We propose a set of nonlinear integral equations to describe on the excited states of an integrable the spin 1 chain with anisotropy. The scaling dimensions, evaluated numerically in previous studies, are recovered analytically by using the equations. This result may be relevant to the study on the supersymmetric sine-Gordon model.Comment: 15 pages, 2 Figures, typos correcte

Finite temperature correlations for the U_q(sl(2|1))-invariant generalized Hubbard model

We study an integrable model of one-dimensional strongly correlated electrons at finite temperature by explicit calculation of the correlation lengths of various correlation functions. The model is invariant with respect to the quantum superalgebra U_q(sl(2|1)) and characterized by the Hubbard interaction, correlated hopping and pair-hopping terms. Using the integrability, the graded quantum transfer matrix is constructed. From the analyticity of its eigenvalues, a closed set of non-linear integral equations is derived which describe the thermodynamical quantities and the finite temperature correlations. The results show a crossover from a regime with dominating density-density correlations to a regime with dominating superconducting pair correlations. Analytical calculations in the low temperature limit are also discussed.Comment: 40 pages, 19 figure

From multiple integrals to Fredholm determinants

We consider a multiple integral representation for the finite temperature density-density correlation functions of the one-dimensional Bose gas with delta function interaction in the limits of infinite and vanishing repulsion. In the former case a known Fredholm determinant is recovered. In the latter case a similar expression appears with permanents replacing determinants.Comment: 11 pages, section on the free Boson limit adde

Multi-distributed Entanglement in Finitely Correlated Chains

The entanglement-sharing properties of an infinite spin-chain are studied when the state of the chain is a pure, translation-invariant state with a matrix-product structure. We study the entanglement properties of such states by means of their finitely correlated structure. These states are recursively constructed by means of an auxiliary density matrix \rho on a matrix algebra B and a completely positive map E: A \otimes B -> B, where A is the spin 2\times 2 matrix algebra. General structural results for the infinite chain are therefore obtained by explicit calculations in (finite) matrix algebras. In particular, we study not only the entanglement shared by nearest-neighbours, but also, differently from previous works, the entanglement shared between connected regions of the spin-chain. This range of possible applications is illustrated and the maximal concurrence C=1/\sqrt{2} for the entanglement of connected regions can actually be reached.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, to be published in Eur.Phys.Let

Thermodynamics of the Anisotropic Spin-1/2 Heisenberg Chain and Related Quantum Chains

The free energy and correlation lengths of the spin-1/2 $XYZ$ chain are studied at finite temperature. We use the quantum transfer matrix approach and derive non-linear integral equations for all eigenvalues. Analytic results are presented for the low-temperature asymptotics, in particular for the critical $XXZ$ chain in an external magnetic field. These results are compared to predictions by conformal field theory. The integral equations are solved numerically for the non-critical $XXZ$ chain and the related spin-1 biquadratic chain at arbitrary temperature.Comment: 31 pages, LATEX, 5 PostScript figures appended, preprint cologne-93-471

Exact Groundstates for Antiferromagnetic Spin-One Chains with Nearest and Next-Nearest Neighbour Interactions

We have found the exact ground state for a large class of antiferromagnetic spin-one chains with nearest and next-nearest neighbour interactions. The ground state is characterized as a matrix product of local site states and has the properties characteristic of the Haldane scenario.Comment: 8 pages, to appear in Z. Phys.

Spinful bosons in an optical lattice

We analyze the behavior of cold spin-1 particles with antiferromagnetic interactions in a one-dimensional optical lattice using density matrix renormalization group calculations. Correlation functions and the dimerization are shown and we also present results for the energy gap between ground state and the spin excited states. We confirm the anticipated phase diagram, with Mott-insulating regions of alternating dimerized S=1 chains for odd particle density versus on-site singlets for even density. We find no evidence for any additional ordered phases in the physically accessible region, however for sufficiently large spin interaction, on-site singlet pairs dominate leading, for odd density, to a breakdown of the Mott insulator or, for even density, a real-space singlet superfluid.Comment: Minor revisions and clarification

On Matrix Product Ground States for Reaction-Diffusion Models

We discuss a new mechanism leading to a matrix product form for the stationary state of one-dimensional stochastic models. The corresponding algebra is quadratic and involves four different matrices. For the example of a coagulation-decoagulation model explicit four-dimensional representations are given and exact expressions for various physical quantities are recovered. We also find the general structure of $n$-point correlation functions at the phase transition.Comment: LaTeX source, 7 pages, no figure

Thermodynamics and Crossover Phenomena in the Correlation Lengths of the One-Dimensional t-J Model

We investigate the thermodynamics of the one-dimensional t-J model using transfer matrix renormalization group (TMRG) algorithms and present results for quantities like particle number, specific heat, spin susceptibility and compressibility. Based on these results we confirm a phase diagram consisting of a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) phase for small J/t and a phase separated state for J/t large. Close to phase separation we find a spin-gap (Luther-Emery) phase at low densities consistent with predictions by other studies. At the supersymmetric point we compare our results with exact results from the Bethe ansatz and find excellent agreement. In particular we focus on the calculation of correlation lengths and static correlation functions and study the crossover from the non-universal high T lattice into the quantum critical regime. At the supersymmetric point we compare in detail with predictions by conformal field theory (CFT) and TLL theory and show the importance of logarithmic corrections.Comment: 14 pages, 20 figure
