We apply the fermionic description of CFT obtained in our previous work to the computation of the one-point functions of the descendant fields in the sine-Gordon model.Comment: 17 pages, Version 3: some simplifications and corrections are don

Theoretical Study of Carbon Clusters in Silicon Carbide Nanowires

Using first-principles methods we performed a theoretical study of carbon clusters in silicon carbide nanowires. We examined small clusters with carbon interstitials and antisites in hydrogen-passivated SiC nanowires growth along the [100] and [111] directions. The formation energies of these clusters were calculated as a function of the carbon concentration. We verified that the energetic stability of the carbon defects in SiC nanowires depends strongly on the composition of the nanowire surface: the energetically most favorable configuration in carbon-coated [100] SiC nanowire is not expected to occur in silicon-coated [100] SiC nanowire. The binding energies of some aggregates were also obtained, and they indicate that the formation of carbon clusters in SiC nanowires is energetically favored.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures; 8 pages, http://www.hindawi.com/journals/jnt/2011/203423

Finite type modules and Bethe Ansatz for quantum toroidal gl(1)

We study highest weight representations of the Borel subalgebra of the quantum toroidal gl(1) algebra with finite-dimensional weight spaces. In particular, we develop the q-character theory for such modules. We introduce and study the subcategory of `finite type' modules. By definition, a module over the Borel subalgebra is finite type if the Cartan like current \psi^+(z) has a finite number of eigenvalues, even though the module itself can be infinite dimensional. We use our results to diagonalize the transfer matrix T_{V,W}(u;p) analogous to those of the six vertex model. In our setting T_{V,W}(u;p) acts in a tensor product W of Fock spaces and V is a highest weight module over the Borel subalgebra of quantum toroidal gl(1) with finite-dimensional weight spaces. Namely we show that for a special choice of finite type modules $V$ the corresponding transfer matrices, Q(u;p) and T(u;p), are polynomials in u and satisfy a two-term TQ relation. We use this relation to prove the Bethe Ansatz equation for the zeroes of the eigenvalues of Q(u;p). Then we show that the eigenvalues of T_{V,W}(u;p) are given by an appropriate substitution of eigenvalues of Q(u;p) into the q-character of V.Comment: Latex 42 page

Form factors and action of U_{\sqrt{-1}}(sl_2~) on infinite-cycles

Let ${\bf p}=\{P_{n,l}\}_{n,l\in\Z_{\ge 0}\atop n-2l=m}$ be a sequence of skew-symmetric polynomials in $X_1,...,X_l$ satisfying $\deg_{X_j}P_{n,l}\le n-1$, whose coefficients are symmetric Laurent polynomials in $z_1,...,z_n$. We call ${\bf p}$ an $\infty$-cycle if $P_{n+2,l+1}\bigl|_{X_{l+1}=z^{-1},z_{n-1}=z,z_n=-z} =z^{-n-1}\prod_{a=1}^l(1-X_a^2z^2)\cdot P_{n,l}$ holds for all $n,l$. These objects arise in integral representations for form factors of massive integrable field theory, i.e., the SU(2)-invariant Thirring model and the sine-Gordon model. The variables $\alpha_a=-\log X_a$ are the integration variables and $\beta_j=\log z_j$ are the rapidity variables. To each $\infty$-cycle there corresponds a form factor of the above models. Conjecturally all form-factors are obtained from the $\infty$-cycles. In this paper, we define an action of $U_{\sqrt{-1}}(\widetilde{\mathfrak{sl}}_2)$ on the space of $\infty$-cycles. There are two sectors of $\infty$-cycles depending on whether $n$ is even or odd. Using this action, we show that the character of the space of even (resp. odd) $\infty$-cycles which are polynomials in $z_1,...,z_n$ is equal to the level $(-1)$ irreducible character of $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2$ with lowest weight $-\Lambda_0$ (resp. $-\Lambda_1$). We also suggest a possible tensor product structure of the full space of $\infty$-cycles.Comment: 27 pages, abstract and section 3.1 revise
