    Ansatz of Hans Bethe for a two-dimensional Bose gas

    Full text link
    The method of q-oscillator lattices, proposed recently in [hep-th/0509181], provides the tool for a construction of various integrable models of quantum mechanics in 2+1 dimensional space-time. In contrast to any one dimensional quantum chain, its two dimensional generalizations -- quantum lattices -- admit different geometrical structures. In this paper we consider the q-oscillator model on a special lattice. The model may be interpreted as a two-dimensional Bose gas. The most remarkable feature of the model is that it allows the coordinate Bethe Ansatz: the p-particles' wave function is the sum of plane waves. Consistency conditions is the set of 2p equations for p one-particle wave vectors. These "Bethe Ansatz" equations are the main result of this paper.Comment: LaTex2e, 12 page

    Explicit Free Parameterization of the Modified Tetrahedron Equation

    Full text link
    The Modified Tetrahedron Equation (MTE) with affine Weyl quantum variables at N-th root of unity is solved by a rational mapping operator which is obtained from the solution of a linear problem. We show that the solutions can be parameterized in terms of eight free parameters and sixteen discrete phase choices, thus providing a broad starting point for the construction of 3-dimensional integrable lattice models. The Fermat curve points parameterizing the representation of the mapping operator in terms of cyclic functions are expressed in terms of the independent parameters. An explicit formula for the density factor of the MTE is derived. For the example N=2 we write the MTE in full detail. We also discuss a solution of the MTE in terms of bosonic continuum functions.Comment: 28 pages, 3 figure

    Quantization of three-wave equations

    Full text link
    The subject of this paper is the consecutive procedure of discretization and quantization of two similar classical integrable systems in three-dimensional space-time: the standard three-wave equations and less known modified three-wave equations. The quantized systems in discrete space-time may be understood as the regularized integrable quantum field theories. Integrability of the theories, and in particular the quantum tetrahedron equations for vertex operators, follow from the quantum auxiliary linear problems. Principal object of the lattice field theories is the Heisenberg discrete time evolution operator constructed with the help of vertex operators.Comment: Contribution to J. Phys. A.

    Quantization scheme for modular q-difference equations

    Full text link
    Modular pairs of some second order q-difference equations are considered. These equations may be interpreted as a quantum mechanics of a sort of hyperelliptic pendulum. It is shown the quantization of a spectrum may be provided by the condition of the analyticity of the wave function. Baxter's t-Q equations for the quantum relativistic Toda chain in the ``strong coupling regime'' are related to the system considered, and the quantization condition for Q-operator is also considered.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX2
