The Lieb-Liniger Model as a Limit of Dilute Bosons in Three Dimensions
We show that the Lieb-Liniger model for one-dimensional bosons with repulsive
-function interaction can be rigorously derived via a scaling limit
from a dilute three-dimensional Bose gas with arbitrary repulsive interaction
potential of finite scattering length. For this purpose, we prove bounds on
both the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions of three-dimensional
bosons in strongly elongated traps and relate them to the corresponding
quantities in the Lieb-Liniger model. In particular, if both the scattering
length and the radius of the cylindrical trap go to zero, the
Lieb-Liniger model with coupling constant is derived. Our bounds
are uniform in in the whole parameter range , and apply
to the Hamiltonian for three-dimensional bosons in a spectral window of size
above the ground state energy.Comment: LaTeX2e, 19 page
Decay of Correlations in Fermi Systems at Non-zero Temperature
The locality of correlation functions is considered for Fermi systems at
non-zero temperature. We show that for all short-range, lattice Hamiltonians,
the correlation function of any two fermionic operators decays exponentially
with a correlation length which is of order the inverse temperature for small
temperature. We discuss applications to numerical simulation of quantum systems
at non-zero temperature.Comment: 3 pages, 0 figure
Stability of Relativistic Matter With Magnetic Fields
Stability of matter with Coulomb forces has been proved for non-relativistic
dynamics, including arbitrarily large magnetic fields, and for relativistic
dynamics without magnetic fields. In both cases stability requires that the
fine structure constant alpha be not too large. It was unclear what would
happen for both relativistic dynamics and magnetic fields, or even how to
formulate the problem clearly. We show that the use of the Dirac operator
allows both effects, provided the filled negative energy `sea' is defined
properly. The use of the free Dirac operator to define the negative levels
leads to catastrophe for any alpha, but the use of the Dirac operator with
magnetic field leads to stability.Comment: This is an announcement of the work in cond-mat/9610195 (LaTeX
The Ground States of Large Quantum Dots in Magnetic Fields
The quantum mechanical ground state of a 2D -electron system in a
confining potential ( is a coupling constant) and a homogeneous
magnetic field is studied in the high density limit , with fixed. It is proved that the ground state energy and
electronic density can be computed {\it exactly} in this limit by minimizing
simple functionals of the density. There are three such functionals depending
on the way varies as : A 2D Thomas-Fermi (TF) theory applies
in the case ; if the correct limit theory
is a modified -dependent TF model, and the case is described
by a ``classical'' continuum electrostatic theory. For homogeneous potentials
this last model describes also the weak coupling limit for arbitrary
. Important steps in the proof are the derivation of a new Lieb-Thirring
inequality for the sum of eigenvalues of single particle Hamiltonians in 2D
with magnetic fields, and an estimation of the exchange-correlation energy. For
this last estimate we study a model of classical point charges with
electrostatic interactions that provides a lower bound for the true quantum
mechanical energy.Comment: 57 pages, Plain tex, 5 figures in separate uufil
The q-deformed Bose gas: Integrability and thermodynamics
We investigate the exact solution of the q-deformed one-dimensional Bose gas
to derive all integrals of motion and their corresponding eigenvalues. As an
application, the thermodynamics is given and compared to an effective field
theory at low temperatures.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figure
Some New Exact Ground States for Generalize Hubbard Models
A set of new exact ground states of the generalized Hubbard models in
arbitrary dimensions with explicitly given parameter regions is presented. This
is based on a simple method for constructing exact ground states for
homogeneous quantum systems.Comment: 9 pages, Late
Stability and Instability of Relativistic Electrons in Classical Electro magnetic Fields
The stability of matter composed of electrons and static nuclei is
investigated for a relativistic dynamics for the electrons given by a suitably
projected Dirac operator and with Coulomb interactions. In addition there is an
arbitrary classical magnetic field of finite energy. Despite the previously
known facts that ordinary nonrelativistic matter with magnetic fields, or
relativistic matter without magnetic fields is already unstable when the fine
structure constant, is too large it is noteworthy that the combination of the
two is still stable provided the projection onto the positive energy states of
the Dirac operator, which defines the electron, is chosen properly. A good
choice is to include the magnetic field in the definition. A bad choice, which
always leads to instability, is the usual one in which the positive energy
states are defined by the free Dirac operator. Both assertions are proved here.Comment: LaTeX fil
Vertex Operators in 2K Dimensions
A formula is proposed which expresses free fermion fields in 2K dimensions in
terms of the Cartan currents of the free fermion current algebra. This leads,
in an obvious manner, to a vertex operator construction of nonabelian free
fermion current algebras in arbitrary even dimension. It is conjectured that
these ideas may generalize to a wide class of conformal field theories.Comment: Minor change in notation. Change in references
The ground state of a general electron-phonon Hamiltonian is a spin singlet
The many-body ground state of a very general class of electron-phonon
Hamiltonians is proven to contain a spin singlet (for an even number of
electrons on a finite lattice). The phonons interact with the electronic system
in two different ways---there is an interaction with the local electronic
charge and there is a functional dependence of the electronic hopping
Hamiltonian on the phonon coordinates. The phonon potential energy may include
anharmonic terms, and the electron-phonon couplings and the hopping matrix
elements may be nonlinear functions of the phonon coordinates. If the hopping
Hamiltonian is assumed to have no phonon coordinate dependence, then the ground
state is also shown to be unique, implying that there are no ground-state level
crossings, and that the ground-state energy is an analytic function of the
parameters in the Hamiltonian. In particular, in a finite system any
self-trapping transition is a smooth crossover not accompanied by a
nonanalytical change in the ground state. The spin-singlet theorem applies to
the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and both the spin-singlet and uniqueness
theorems apply to the Holstein and attractive Hubbard models as special cases.
These results hold in all dimensions --- even on a general graph without
periodic lattice structure.Comment: 25 pages, no figures, plainte
Localization of Multi-Dimensional Wigner Distributions
A well known result of P. Flandrin states that a Gaussian uniquely maximizes
the integral of the Wigner distribution over every centered disc in the phase
plane. While there is no difficulty in generalizing this result to
higher-dimensional poly-discs, the generalization to balls is less obvious. In
this note we provide such a generalization.Comment: Minor corrections, to appear in the Journal of Mathematical Physic
