Three Order Parameters in Quantum XZ Spin-Oscillator Models with Gibbsian Ground States
Quantum models on the hyper-cubic d-dimensional lattice of spin-1/2 particles interacting with linear oscillators are shown to have three ferromagnetic ground state order parameters. Two order parameters coincide with the magnetization in the first and third directions and the third one is a magnetization in a continuous oscillator variable. The proofs use a generalized Peierls argument and two Griffiths inequalities. The class of spin-oscillator Hamiltonians considered manifest maximal ordering in their ground states. The models have relevance for hydrogen-bond ferroelectrics. The simplest of these is proven to have a unique Gibbsian ground state
Long Cycles in a Perturbed Mean Field Model of a Boson Gas
In this paper we give a precise mathematical formulation of the relation
between Bose condensation and long cycles and prove its validity for the
perturbed mean field model of a Bose gas. We decompose the total density
into the number density of
particles belonging to cycles of finite length () and to
infinitely long cycles () in the thermodynamic limit. For
this model we prove that when there is Bose condensation,
is different from zero and identical to the condensate density. This is
achieved through an application of the theory of large deviations. We discuss
the possible equivalence of with off-diagonal long
range order and winding paths that occur in the path integral representation of
the Bose gas.Comment: 10 page
Widths of the Hall Conductance Plateaus
We study the charge transport of the noninteracting electron gas in a
two-dimensional quantum Hall system with Anderson-type impurities at zero
temperature. We prove that there exist localized states of the bulk order in
the disordered-broadened Landau bands whose energies are smaller than a certain
value determined by the strength of the uniform magnetic field. We also prove
that, when the Fermi level lies in the localization regime, the Hall
conductance is quantized to the desired integer and shows the plateau of the
bulk order for varying the filling factor of the electrons rather than the
Fermi level.Comment: 94 pages, v2: a revision of Sec. 5; v3: an error in Sec. 7 is

Diagonalization of an Integrable Discretization of the Repulsive Delta Bose Gas on the Circle
We introduce an integrable lattice discretization of the quantum system of n
bosonic particles on a ring interacting pairwise via repulsive delta
potentials. The corresponding (finite-dimensional) spectral problem of the
integrable lattice model is solved by means of the Bethe Ansatz method. The
resulting eigenfunctions turn out to be given by specializations of the
Hall-Littlewood polynomials. In the continuum limit the solution of the
repulsive delta Bose gas due to Lieb and Liniger is recovered, including the
orthogonality of the Bethe wave functions first proved by Dorlas (extending
previous work of C.N. Yang and C.P. Yang).Comment: 25 pages, LaTe
Two ways to solve ASEP
The purpose of this article is to describe the two approaches to compute
exact formulas (which are amenable to asymptotic analysis) for the probability
distribution of the current of particles past a given site in the asymmetric
simple exclusion process (ASEP) with step initial data. The first approach is
via a variant of the coordinate Bethe ansatz and was developed in work of Tracy
and Widom in 2008-2009, while the second approach is via a rigorous version of
the replica trick and was developed in work of Borodin, Sasamoto and the author
in 2012.Comment: 10 pages, Chapter in "Topics in percolative and disordered systems
Bethe Ansatz for the Weakly Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process and phase transition in the current distribution
The probability distribution of the current in the asymmetric simple
exclusion process is expected to undergo a phase transition in the regime of
weak asymmetry of the jumping rates. This transition was first predicted by
Bodineau and Derrida using a linear stability analysis of the hydrodynamical
limit of the process and further arguments have been given by Mallick and
Prolhac. However it has been impossible so far to study what happens after the
transition. The present paper presents an analysis of the large deviation
function of the current on both sides of the transition from a Bethe ansatz
approach of the weak asymmetry regime of the exclusion process.Comment: accepted to J.Stat.Phys, 1 figure, 1 reference, 2 paragraphs adde
Localization on quantum graphs with random vertex couplings
We consider Schr\"odinger operators on a class of periodic quantum graphs
with randomly distributed Kirchhoff coupling constants at all vertices. Using
the technique of self-adjoint extensions we obtain conditions for localization
on quantum graphs in terms of finite volume criteria for some energy-dependent
discrete Hamiltonians. These conditions hold in the strong disorder limit and
at the spectral edges
Determinant representation for some transition probabilities in the TASEP with second class particles
We study the transition probabilities for the totally asymmetric simple
exclusion process (TASEP) on the infinite integer lattice with a finite, but
arbitrary number of first and second class particles. Using the Bethe ansatz we
present an explicit expression of these quantities in terms of the Bethe wave
function. In a next step it is proved rigorously that this expression can be
written in a compact determinantal form for the case where the order of the
first and second class particles does not change in time. An independent
geometrical approach provides insight into these results and enables us to
generalize the determinantal solution to the multi-class TASEP.Comment: Minor revision; journal reference adde
Current Fluctuations of the One Dimensional Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process with Step Initial Condition
For the symmetric simple exclusion process on an infinite line, we calculate
exactly the fluctuations of the integrated current during time
through the origin when, in the initial condition, the sites are occupied with
density on the negative axis and with density on the positive
axis. All the cumulants of grow like . In the range where , the decay of the distribution of is
non-Gaussian. Our results are obtained using the Bethe ansatz and several
identities recently derived by Tracy and Widom for exclusion processes on the
infinite line.Comment: 2 figure
Non-Gibbsian Limit for Large-Block Majority-Spin Transformations
We generalize a result of Lebowitz and Maes, that projections of massless Gaussian measures onto Ising spin configurations are non-Gibbs measures. This result provides the first evidence for the existence of singularities in majority-spin transformations of critical models. Indeed, under the assumption of the folk theorem that an average-block-spin transformation applied to a critical Ising model in 5 or more dimensions converges to a Gaussian fixed point, we show that the limit of a sequence of majority-spin transformations with increasing block size applied to a critical Ising model is a measure that is not of Gibbsian type.
