GAPS IN THE HEISENBERG-ISING MODEL

We report on the closing of gaps in the ground state of the critical Heisenberg-Ising chain at momentum $\pi$. For half-filling, the gap closes at special values of the anisotropy $\Delta= \cos(\pi/Q)$, $Q$ integer. We explain this behavior with the help of the Bethe Ansatz and show that the gap scales as a power of the system size with variable exponent depending on $\Delta$. We use a finite-size analysis to calculate this exponent in the critical region, supplemented by perturbation theory at $\Delta\sim 0$. For rational $1/r$ fillings, the gap is shown to be closed for {\em all} values of $\Delta$ and the corresponding perturbation expansion in $\Delta$ shows a remarkable cancellation of various diagrams.Comment: 12 RevTeX pages + 4 figures upon reques

Solutions to the Multi-Component 1/R Hubbard Model

In this work we introduce one dimensional multi-component Hubbard model of 1/r hopping and U on-site energy. The wavefunctions, the spectrum and the thermodynamics are studied for this model in the strong interaction limit $U=\infty$. In this limit, the system is a special example of $SU(N)$ Luttinger liquids, exhibiting spin-charge separation in the full Hilbert space. Speculations on the physical properties of the model at finite on-site energy are also discussed.Comment: 9 pages, revtex, Princeton-May1

Exact Solution of Heisenberg-liquid models with long-range coupling

We present the exact solution of two Heisenberg-liquid models of particles with arbitrary spin $S$ interacting via a hyperbolic long-range potential. In one model the spin-spin coupling has the simple antiferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange form, while for the other model the interaction is of the ferromagnetic Babujian-Takhatajan type. It is found that the Bethe ansatz equations of these models have a similar structure to that of the Babujian-Takhatajan spin chain. We also conjecture the integrability of a third new spin-lattice model with long-range interaction.Comment: 7pages Revte

Transport Properties of a One-Dimensional Two-Component Quantum Liquid with Hyperbolic Interactions

We present an investigation of the sinh-cosh (SC) interaction model with twisted boundary conditions. We argue that, when unlike particles repel, the SC model may be usefully viewed as a Heisenberg-Ising fluid with moving Heisenberg-Ising spins. We derive the Luttinger liquid relation for the stiffness and the susceptibility, both from conformal arguments, and directly from the integral equations. Finally, we investigate the opening and closing of the ground state gaps for both SC and Heisenberg-Ising models, as the interaction strength is varied.Comment: 10 REVTeX pages + 4 uuencoded figures, UoU-002029

Solution of Some Integrable One-Dimensional Quantum Systems

In this paper, we investigate a family of one-dimensional multi-component quantum many-body systems. The interaction is an exchange interaction based on the familiar family of integrable systems which includes the inverse square potential. We show these systems to be integrable, and exploit this integrability to completely determine the spectrum including degeneracy, and thus the thermodynamics. The periodic inverse square case is worked out explicitly. Next, we show that in the limit of strong interaction the "spin" degrees of freedom decouple. Taking this limit for our example, we obtain a complete solution to a lattice system introduced recently by Shastry, and Haldane; our solution reproduces the numerical results. Finally, we emphasize the simple explanation for the high multiplicities found in this model

Thermodynamics of an one-dimensional ideal gas with fractional exclusion statistics

We show that the particles in the Calogero-Sutherland Model obey fractional exclusion statistics as defined by Haldane. We construct anyon number densities and derive the energy distribution function. We show that the partition function factorizes in the form characteristic of an ideal gas. The virial expansion is exactly computable and interestingly it is only the second virial coefficient that encodes the statistics information.Comment: 10pp, REVTE

A Note on Dressed S-Matrices in Models with Long-Range Interactions

The {\sl dressed} Scattering matrix describing scattering of quasiparticles in various models with long-range interactions is evaluated by means of Korepin's method\upref vek1/. For models with ${1\over\sin^2(r)}$-interactions the S-matrix is found to be a momentum-independent phase, which clearly demonstrates the ideal gas character of the quasiparticles in such models. We then determine S-matrices for some models with ${1\over\sinh^2(r)}$-interaction and find them to be in general nontrivial. For the ${1\over r^2}$-limit of the ${1\over\sinh^2(r)}$-interaction we recover trivial S-matrices, thus exhibiting a crossover from interacting to noninteracting quasiparticles. The relation of the S-matrix to fractional statistics is discussed.Comment: 18 pages, jyTeX (macro included - just TeX the file) BONN-TH-94-13, revised version: analysis of models with 1/sinh^2 interaction adde

Spectrum and Thermodynamics of the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model with 1/r21/r^2 exchange and hopping

We derive the spectrum and the thermodynamics of the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model with long range hopping and spin exchange using a set of maximal-spin eigenstates. This spectrum confirms the recent conjecture that the asymptotic Bethe-ansatz spectrum is exact. By empirical determining the spinon degeneracies of each state, we are able to explicitly construct the free energy.Comment: 13 pages, Latex, (published in PRB46, 6639 (1992)

Long Range Interaction Models and Yangian Symmetry

The generalized Sutherland-Romer models and Yan models with internal spin degrees are formulated in terms of the Polychronakos' approach and RTT relation associated to the Yang-Baxter equation in consistent way. The Yangian symmetry is shown to generate both models. We finally introduce the reflection algebra K(u) to the long range models.Comment: 13 pages, preprint of Nankai Institute of Mathematics ( Theoretical Physics Division ), published in Physical Review E of 1995.

Persistent currents through a quantum impurity: Protection through integrability

We consider an integrable model of a one-dimensional mesoscopic ring with the conduction electrons coupled by a spin exchange to a magnetic impurity. A symmetry analysis based on a Bethe Ansatz solution of the model reveals that the current is insensitive to the presence of the impurity. We argue that this is true for any integrable impurity-electron interaction, independent of choice of physical parameters or couplings. We propose a simple physical picture of how the persistent current gets protected by integrability.Comment: 5 pages, minor update
