Threshold Singularities in the One Dimensional Hubbard Model

We consider excitations with the quantum numbers of a hole in the one dimensional Hubbard model below half-filling. We calculate the finite-size corrections to the energy. The results are then used to determine threshold singularities in the single-particle Green's function for commensurate fillings. We present the analogous results for the Yang-Gaudin model (electron gas with delta-function interactions).Comment: 26 pages, 12 figures version to appear in Phys Rev

Dynamics in the Ising field theory after a quantum quench

We study the real-time dynamics of the order parameter $$in the Ising field theory after a quench in the fermion mass, which corresponds to a quench in the transverse field of the corresponding transverse field Ising chain. We focus on quenches within the ordered phase. The long-time behaviour is obtained analytically by a resummation of the leading divergent terms in a form-factor expansion for$$. Our main result is the development of a method for treating divergences associated with working directly in the field theory limit. We recover the scaling limit of the corresponding result by Calabrese et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{106}, 227203 (2011)], which was obtained for the lattice model. Our formalism generalizes to integrable quantum quenches in other integrable models

Relationship between single-particle excitation and spin excitation at the Mott Transition

An intuitive interpretation of the relationship between the dispersion relation of the single-particle excitation in a metal and that of the spin excitation in a Mott insulator is presented, based on the results for the one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models obtained by using the Bethe ansatz, dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method, and cluster perturbation theory. The dispersion relation of the spin excitation in the Mott insulator is naturally constructed from that of the single-particle excitation in the zero-doping limit in both one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models, which allows us to interpret the doping-induced states as the states that lose charge character toward the Mott transition. The characteristic feature of the Mott transition is contrasted with the feature of a Fermi liquid and that of the transition between a band insulator and a metal.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, to appear in JPS Conf.

Dynamical Spin Response of Doped Two-Leg Hubbard-like Ladders

We study the dynamical spin response of doped two-leg Hubbard-like ladders in the framework of a low-energy effective field theory description given by the SO(6) Gross Neveu model. Using the integrability of the SO(6) Gross-Neveu model, we derive the low energy dynamical magnetic susceptibility. The susceptibility is characterized by an incommensurate coherent mode near $(\pi,\pi)$ and by broad two excitation scattering continua at other $k$-points. In our computation we are able to estimate the relative weights of these contributions. All calculations are performed using form-factor expansions which yield exact low energy results in the context of the SO(6) Gross-Neveu model. To employ this expansion, a number of hitherto undetermined form factors were computed. To do so, we developed a general approach for the computation of matrix elements of semi-local SO(6) Gross-Neveu operators. While our computation takes place in the context of SO(6) Gross-Neveu, we also consider the effects of perturbations away from an SO(6) symmetric model, showing that small perturbations at best quantitatively change the physics.Comment: 32 pages and 7 figure

Dynamical Magnetic Susceptibilities in Cu Benzoate

Recent experiments on the quasi 1-D antiferromagnet Cu Benzoate revealed a magentic field induced gap coexisting with (ferro)magnetic order. A theory explaining these findings has been proposed by Oshikawa and Affleck. In the present work we discuss consequences of this theory for inelastic neutron scattering experiments by calculating the dynamical magnetic susceptibilities close to the antiferromagnetic wave vector by the formfactor method.Comment: 6 pages of revtex, 9 figures, extended comparison with experimen

Algebraic properties of an integrable t-J model with impurities

We investigate the algebraic structure of a recently proposed integrable $t-J$ model with impurities. Three forms of the Bethe ansatz equations are presented corresponding to the three choices for the grading. We prove that the Bethe ansatz states are highest weight vectors of the underlying $gl(2|1)$ supersymmetry algebra. By acting with the $gl(2|1)$ generators we construct a complete set of states for the model.Comment: 20 pages, LaTe

Spectrum of Low-Lying Excitations in a Supersymmetric Extended Hubbard Model

We continue the study of the $u(2|2)$-supersymmetric extension of the Hubbard model in one dimension. We determine the excitation spectrum at zero temperature even in the sectors where the ground states are $u(2|2)$-descendants of Bethe states. The excitations include spinons, holons, electrons, localons (local electrons pairs, moving coherently through the lattice) and their bound states. The spectra are found to be very different for repulsive and attractive on-site interaction. We also study the thermodynamics of the model.Comment: 37 pages, uuencoded compressed postscript fil

Applications of Massive Integrable Quantum Field Theories to Problems in Condensed Matter Physics

We review applications of the sine-Gordon model, the O(3) non-linear sigma model, the U(1) Thirring model, and the O(N) Gross--Neveu model to quasi one-dimensional quantum magnets, Mott insulators, and carbon nanotubes. We focus upon the determination of dynamical response functions for these problems. These quantities are computed by means of form factor expansions of quantum correlation functions in integrable quantum field theories. This approach is reviewed here in some detail.Comment: 150 pages, 35 figures, published in the I. Kogan Memorial Volume by World Scientifi
