Dynamical correlation functions for an impenetrable Bose gas with Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions

We study the time and temperature dependent correlation functions for an impenetrable Bose gas with Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions $\langle \psi(x_1,0)\psi^\dagger(x_2,t)\rangle _{\pm,T}$. We derive the Fredholm determinant formulae for the correlation functions, by means of the Bethe Ansatz. For the special case $x_1=0$, we express correlation functions with Neumann boundary conditions $\langle\psi(0,0)\psi^\dagger(x_2,t)\rangle _{+,T}$, in terms of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations which were introduced in \cite{kojima:Sl} as a generalization of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. We generalize the Fredholm minor determinant formulae of ground state correlation functions $\langle\psi(x_1)\psi^\dagger(x_2)\rangle _{\pm,0}$ in \cite{kojima:K}, to the Fredholm determinant formulae for the time and temperature dependent correlation functions $\langle\psi(x_1,0)\psi^\dagger(x_2,t)\rangle _{\pm,T}$, $t \in {\bf R}$, $T \geq 0$

Spin mapping, phase diagram, and collective modes in double layer quantum Hall systems at ν=2\nu=2

An exact spin mapping is identified to simplify the recently proposed hard-core boson description (Demler and Das Sarma, Phys. Rev. Lett., to be published) of the bilayer quantum Hall system at filling factor 2. The effective spin model describes an easy-plane ferromagnet subject to an external Zeeman field. The phase diagram of this effective model is determined exactly and found to agree with the approximate calculation of Demler and Das Sarma, while the Goldstone-mode spectrum, order parameter stiffness and Kosterlitz-Thouless temperature in the canted antiferromagnetic phase are computed approximately.Comment: 4 pages with 2 figures include

Kinetics of Exciton Emission Patterns and Carrier Transport

We report on the measurements of the kinetics of expanding and collapsing rings in the exciton emission pattern. The rings are found to preserve their integrity during expansion and collapse, indicating that the observed kinetics is controlled by charge carrier transport rather than by a much faster process of exciton production and decay. The relation between ring kinetics and carrier transport, revealed by our experiment and confirmed by comparison with a theoretical model, is used to determine electron and hole transport characteristics in a contactless fashion.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure

The vertex formulation of the Bazhanov-Baxter Model

In this paper we formulate an integrable model on the simple cubic lattice. The $N$ -- valued spin variables of the model belong to edges of the lattice. The Boltzmann weights of the model obey the vertex type Tetrahedron Equation. In the thermodynamic limit our model is equivalent to the Bazhanov -- Baxter Model. In the case when $N=2$ we reproduce the Korepanov's and Hietarinta's solutions of the Tetrahedron equation as some special cases.Comment: 20 pages, LaTeX fil

Star-Triangle Relation for a Three Dimensional Model

The solvable $sl(n)$-chiral Potts model can be interpreted as a three-dimensional lattice model with local interactions. To within a minor modification of the boundary conditions it is an Ising type model on the body centered cubic lattice with two- and three-spin interactions. The corresponding local Boltzmann weights obey a number of simple relations, including a restricted star-triangle relation, which is a modified version of the well-known star-triangle relation appearing in two-dimensional models. We show that these relations lead to remarkable symmetry properties of the Boltzmann weight function of an elementary cube of the lattice, related to spatial symmetry group of the cubic lattice. These symmetry properties allow one to prove the commutativity of the row-to-row transfer matrices, bypassing the tetrahedron relation. The partition function per site for the infinite lattice is calculated exactly.Comment: 20 pages, plain TeX, 3 figures, SMS-079-92/MRR-020-92. (corrupted figures replaced

Higher-order vortex solitons, multipoles, and supervortices on a square optical lattice

We predict new generic types of vorticity-carrying soliton complexes in a class of physical systems including an attractive Bose-Einstein condensate in a square optical lattice (OL) and photonic lattices in photorefractive media. The patterns include ring-shaped higher-order vortex solitons and supervortices. Stability diagrams for these patterns, based on direct simulations, are presented. The vortex ring solitons are stable if the phase difference \Delta \phi between adjacent solitons in the ring is larger than \pi/2, while the supervortices are stable in the opposite case, \Delta \phi <\pi /2. A qualitative explanation to the stability is given.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure

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

Maxwell-Bloch equation and Correlation function for penetrable Bose gas

We consider the quantum nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in one space and one time dimension. We are interested in the non-free-fermionic case. We consider static temperature-dependent correlation functions. The determinant representation for correlation functions simplifies in the small mass limit of the Bose particle. In this limit we describe the correlation functions by the vacuum expectation value of a boson-valued solution for Maxwell-Bloch differential equation. We evaluate long-distance asymptotics of correlation functions in the small mass limit.Comment: LaTEX file, 20 pages, to appear J. Phys. A (1997
