One dimensional model for doubly degenerate electrons

A Hubbard-like model with SU(4) symmetry for electrons with two-fold orbital degeneracy is studied extensively. Exact solution in one dimension is derived by means of Bethe ansatz, where the sites are supposed to be occupied by at most two electrons. The features of ground state and excited states for repulsive coupling are shown. For finite N number of electrons, the configurations of quantum numbers are given explicitly and the spectra of excitations are obtained by solving the Bethe-ansatz equation numerically. For infinite N, the ground state and various kinds of low-lying excitations are obtained on the basis of thermodynamics limit.Comment: Revtex, 21 pages including 9 figures, PRB versio

Numerical and Monte Carlo Bethe ansatz method: 1D Heisenberg model

In this paper we present two new numerical methods for studying thermodynamic quantities of integrable models. As an example of the effectiveness of these two approaches, results from numerical solutions of all sets of Bethe ansatz equations, for small Heisenberg chains, and Monte Carlo simulations in quasi-momentum space, for a relatively larger chains, are presented. Our results agree with those obtained by thermodynamics Bethe ansatz (TBA) and Quantum Transfer Matrix (QTM).Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

A New Phase Transition Related to the Black Hole's Topological Charge

The topological charge $\epsilon$ of AdS black hole is introduced in Ref.[1,2], where a complete thermodynamic first law is obtained. In this paper, we investigate a new phase transition related to the topological charge in Einstein-Maxwell theory. Firstly, we derive the explicit solutions corresponding to the divergence of specific heat $C_{\epsilon}$ and determine the phase transition critical point. Secondly, the $T-r$ curve and $T-S$ curve are investigated and they exhibit an interesting van der Waals system's behavior. Critical physical quantities are also obtained which are consistent with those derived from the specific heat analysis. Thirdly, a van der Waals system's swallow tail behavior is observed when $\epsilon>\epsilon_{c}$ in the $F-T$ graph. What's more, the analytic phase transition coexistence lines are obtained by using the Maxwell equal area law and free energy analysis, the results of which are consistent with each other.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figure

Thermodynamics of SU(2) bosons in one dimension

On the basis of Bethe ansatz solution of two-component bosons with SU(2) symmetry and $\delta$-function interaction in one dimension, we study the thermodynamics of the system at finite temperature by using the strategy of thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA). It is shown that the ground state is an isospin "ferromagnetic" state by the method of TBA, and at high temperature the magnetic property is dominated by Curie's law. We obtain the exact result of specific heat and entropy in strong coupling limit which scales like $T$ at low temperature. While in weak coupling limit, it is found there is still no Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) in such 1D system.Comment: 7 page
