Abstract

We revisit the quantum/classical integrable model correspondence in the context of inhomogeneous finite length XXZ spin-1/2 chains with periodic boundary conditions and show that the Bethe scalar product of an arbitrary state and a Bethe eigenstate is a discrete KP tau-function. The continuous Miwa variables of discrete KP are the rapidities of the arbitrary state.

XXZ scalar products and KP

Omar E. Foda, M. Wheeler, Mathew L. Zuparic

Using a Jacobi–Trudi-type identity, we show that the scalar product of a general state and a Bethe eigenstate in a finite-length XXZ spin-12 chain is (a restriction of) a KP τ function. This leads to a correspondence between the eigenstates and points on Sato's Grassmannian. Each of these points is a function of the rapidities of the corresponding eigenstate, the inhomogeneity variables of the spin chain and the crossing parameter.

Correlation functions of the XXZ spin chain with the twisted boundary condition

Yi Qiao, Zhirong Xin, Xiaotian Xu +4 more

The scalar products, form factors, and correlation functions of the XXZ spin chain with a twisted (or antiperiodic) boundary condition are obtained based on the inhomogeneous T–Q relation and the Bethe states constructed via the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz. It is shown that the scalar product of two off-shell Bethe states, the form factors, and the two-point correlation functions can be expressed as the summation of certain determinants. The corresponding homogeneous limits are studied. The results are also checked by the numerical calculations.

The open XXZ spin chain in the SoV framework: scalar product of separate states

N Kitanine, Jean Michel Maillet, Giuliano Niccoli +1 more

Abstract In our previous paper (Kitanine et al 2017 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor . 50 224001) we have obtained, for the XXX spin-1/2 Heisenberg open chain, new determinant representations for the scalar products of separate states in the quantum separation of variables (SoV) framework. In this article we perform a similar study in a more complicated case: the XXZ open spin-1/2 chain with the most general integrable boundary terms. We first revisit the SoV solution of this model using a matrix version of the Vertex-IRF gauge transformation so as to reduce one of the boundary K -matrices to a diagonal form. As usual within the SoV approach, the scalar products of separate states are computed in terms of dressed Vandermonde determinants having an intricate dependency on the inhomogeneity parameters. We show that these determinants can be transformed into different ones in which the homogeneous limit can be taken straightforwardly. These representations generalize in a non-trivial manner to the trigonometric case the expressions found previously in the rational case. We also show that generically all scalar products can be expressed in a form which is similar to—although more cumbersome than—the well-known Slavnov determinant representation for the scalar products of the Bethe states of the periodic chain. Considering a special choice of the boundary parameters relevant in the thermodynamic limit to describe the half infinite chain with a general boundary, we particularize these representations to the case of one of the two states being an eigenstate. We obtain simplified formulas that should be of direct use to compute the form factors and correlation functions of this model.

Scalar product for the XXZ spin chain with general integrable boundaries *

S. Belliard, Rodrigo A. Pimenta, Nikita A Slavnov

Abstract We calculate the scalar product of Bethe states of the XXZ spin- 1 2 chain with general integrable boundary conditions. The off-shell equations satisfied by the transfer matrix and the off-shell Bethe vectors allow one to derive a linear system for the scalar product of off-shell and on-shell Bethe states. We show that this linear system can be solved in terms of a compact determinant formula that involves the Jacobian of the transfer matrix eigenvalue and certain q -Pochhammer polynomials of the boundary couplings.

Correlation functions of the openXXZchain: I

N Kitanine, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski, Jean Michel Maillet +3 more

We consider the XXZ spin chain with diagonal boundary conditions in the framework of the algebraic Bethe ansatz. Using the explicit computation of the scalar products of Bethe states and a revisited version of the bulk quantum inverse problem, we calculate the elementary building blocks for the correlation functions. In the limit of a half-infinite chain, they are obtained as multiple integrals of usual functions, similar to the case of periodic boundary conditions.

More on Slavnov Products of Spin Chains and KP Hierarchy Tau Functions

Thiago Araujo

Connections between classical and quantum integrable systems are analyzed from the viewpoint of Slavnov products of Bethe states. It is well known that, modulo model dependent aspects, the functional structure of Slavnov products generally takes the form of determinants. Building on recent results on the structure of rational and trigonometric models, we show that, provided certain conditions are satisfied, the Slavnov product of a given model can be interpreted as a tau function of the KP hierarchy, thus extending known results in a more general setting. Moreover, we show that Slavnov products can be expanded in terms of other tau functions. We also prove that their homogeneous limit can be systematically expressed as a Wronskian of functions related to the eigenvalues of the transfer matrices. Finally, we compute the Baker-Akhiezer functions associated with these Slavnov products and show that, apart from a universal multiplicative factor, they admit a closed determinantal representation.
