    Exact density matrix of the Gutzwiller wave function: II. Minority spin component

    Full text link
    The density matrix, i.e. the Fourier transform of the momentum distribution, is obtained analytically for all magnetization of the Gutzwiller wave function in one dimension with exclusion of double occupancy per site. The present result complements the previous analytic derivation of the density matrix for the majority spin. The derivation makes use of a determinantal form of the squared wave function, and multiple integrals over particle coordinates are performed with the help of a diagrammatic representation. In the thermodynamic limit, the density matrix at distance x is completely characterized by quantities v_c x and v_s x, where v_s and v_c are spin and charge velocities in the supersymmetric t-J model for which the Gutzwiller wave function gives the exact ground state. The present result then gives the exact density matrix of the t-J model for all densities and all magnetization at zero temperature. Discontinuity, slope, and curvature singularities in the momentum distribution are identified. The momentum distribution obtained by numerical Fourier transform is in excellent agreement with existing result.Comment: 20 pages, 10 figure

    Exact Dynamics of the SU(K) Haldane-Shastry Model

    Full text link
    The dynamical structure factor S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) of the SU(K) (K=2,3,4) Haldane-Shastry model is derived exactly at zero temperature for arbitrary size of the system. The result is interpreted in terms of free quasi-particles which are generalization of spinons in the SU(2) case; the excited states relevant to S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) consist of K quasi-particles each of which is characterized by a set of K-1 quantum numbers. Near the boundaries of the region where S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) is nonzero, S(q,ω)S(q,\omega) shows the power-law singularity. It is found that the divergent singularity occurs only in the lowest edges starting from (q,ω)=(0,0)(q,\omega) = (0,0) toward positive and negative q. The analytic result is checked numerically for finite systems via exact diagonalization and recursion methods.Comment: 35 pages, 3 figures, youngtab.sty (version 1.1

    Topological quantum phase transition in the BEC-BCS crossover phenomena

    Get PDF
    A crossover between the Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) and BCS superconducting state is described topologically in the chiral symmetric fermion system with attractive interaction. Using a local Z_2 Berry phase, we found a quantum phase transition between the BEC and BCS phases without accompanying the bulk gap closing.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure

    Edge states in graphene in magnetic fields -- a speciality of the edge mode embedded in the n=0 Landau band

    Full text link
    While usual edge states in the quantum Hall effect(QHE) reside between adjacent Landau levels, QHE in graphene has a peculiar edge mode at E=0 that reside right within the n=0 Landau level as protected by the chiral symmetry. We have theoretically studied the edge states to show that the E=0 edge mode, despite being embedded in the bulk Landau level, does give rise to a wave function whose charge is accumulated along zigzag edges. This property, totally outside continuum models, implies that the graphene QHE harbors edges distinct from ordinary QHE edges with their topological origin. In the charge accumulation the bulk states re-distribute their charge significantly, which may be called a topological compensation of charge density. The real space behavior obtained here should be observable in an STM imaging.Comment: 4 pages, 9 figure

    Basic properties of three-leg Heisenberg tube

    Full text link
    We study three-leg antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with the periodic boundary conditions in the rung direction. Since the rungs form regular triangles, spin frustration is induced. We use the density-matrix renormalization group method to investigate the ground state. We find that the spin excitations are always gapped to remove the spin frustration as long as the rung coupling is nonzero. We also visibly confirm spin-Peierls dimerization order in the leg direction. Both the spin gap and the dimerization order are basically enhanced as the rung coupling increases.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure

    Spinon excitations in the XX chain: spectra, transition rates, observability

    Get PDF
    The exact one-to-one mapping between (spinless) Jordan-Wigner lattice fermions and (spin-1/2) spinons is established for all eigenstates of the one-dimensional s = 1=2 XX model on a lattice with an even or odd number N of lattice sites and periodic boundary conditions. Exact product formulas for the transition rates derived via Bethe ansatz are used to calculate asymptotic expressions of the 2-spinon and 4-spinon parts (for large even N) as well as of the 1-spinon and 3-spinon parts (for large odd N) of the dynamic spin structure factors. The observability of these spectral contributions is assessed for finite and infinite N.Comment: 19 pages, 10 figure
