Abstract

We construct polarized spin reversal operator (PSRO) which yields a class of representations for the BCN type of Weyl algebra, and subsequently use this PSRO to find out novel exactly solvable variants of the BCN type of spin Calogero model. The strong coupling limit of such spin Calogero models generates the BCN type of Polychronakos spin chains with PSRO. We derive the exact spectra of the BCN type of spin Calogero models with PSRO and compute the partition functions of the related spin chains by using the freezing trick. We also find out an interesting relation between the partition functions of the BCN type and AN−1 type of Polychronakos spin chains. Finally, we study spectral properties like level density and distribution of spacing between consecutive energy levels for BCN type of Polychronakos spin chains with PSRO.

Supersymmetric analogue of BC type rational integrable models with polarized spin reversal operators

Pratyay Banerjee, B. Basu-Mallick, Nilanjan Bondyopadhaya +1 more

We derive the exact spectra as well as partition functions for a class of BC N type of spin Calogero models, whose Hamiltonians are constructed by using supersymmetric analogues of polarized spin reversal operators (SAPSRO). The strong coupling limit of these spin Calogero models yields BC N type of Polychronakos–Frahm (PF) spin chains with SAPSRO. By applying the freezing trick, we obtain an exact expression for the partition functions of such PF spin chains. We also derive a formula which expresses the partition function of any BC N type of PF spin chain with SAPSRO in terms of partition functions of several A K types of supersymmetric PF spin chains, where K ⩽ N − 1 . Subsequently we show that an extended boson–fermion duality relation is obeyed by the partition functions of the BC N type of PF chains with SAPSRO. Some spectral properties of these spin chains, like level density distribution and nearest neighbor spacing distribution, are also studied.

An exactly solvable supersymmetric spin chain of BCN type

J. C. Barba, Federico Finkel, Artemio González-López +1 more

We construct a new exactly solvable supersymmetric spin chain related to the BCN extended root system, which includes as a particular case the BCN version of the Polychronakos–Frahm spin chain. We also introduce a supersymmetric spin dynamical model of Calogero type which yields the new chain in the large coupling limit. This connection is exploited to derive two different closed-form expressions for the chain's partition function by means of Polychronakos's freezing trick. We establish a boson–fermion duality relation for the new chain's spectrum, which is in fact valid for a large class of (not necessarily integrable) spin chains of BCN type. The exact expressions for the partition function are also used to study the chain's spectrum as a whole, showing that the level density is normally distributed even for a moderately large number of particles. We also determine a simple analytic approximation to the distribution of normalized spacings between consecutive levels which fits the numerical data with remarkable accuracy. Our results provide further evidence that spin chains of Haldane–Shastry type are exceptional integrable models, in the sense that their spacings distribution is not Poissonian, as posited by the Berry–Tabor conjecture for “generic” quantum integrable systems.

Rational quantum integrable systems of DN type with polarized spin reversal operators

B. Basu-Mallick, C. Datta, Federico Finkel +1 more

We study the spin Calogero model of DN type with polarized spin reversal operators, as well as its associated spin chain of Haldane–Shastry type, both in the antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic cases. We compute the spectrum and the partition function of the former model in closed form, from which we derive an exact formula for the chain's partition function in terms of products of partition functions of Polychronakos–Frahm spin chains of type A. Using a recursion relation for the latter partition functions that we derive in the paper, we are able to numerically evaluate the partition function, and thus the spectrum, of the DN-type spin chain for relatively high values of the number of spins N. We analyze several global properties of the chain's spectrum, such as the asymptotic level density, the distribution of consecutive spacings of the unfolded spectrum, and the average degeneracy. In particular, our results suggest that this chain is invariant under a suitable Yangian group, and that its spectrum coincides with that of a Yangian-invariant vertex model with linear energy function and dispersion relation.

Polychronakos-Frahm spin chain of BCN type and the Berry-Tabor conjecture

J. C. Barba, Federico Finkel, Artemio González-López +1 more

We compute the partition function of the $\text{su}(m)$ Polychronakos-Frahm spin chain of $B{C}_{N}$ type by means of the freezing trick. We use this partition function to study several statistical properties of the spectrum, which turn out to be analogous to those of other spin chains of Haldane--Shastry type. In particular, we find that when the number of particles is sufficiently large the level density follows a Gaussian distribution with great accuracy. We also show that the distribution of (normalized) spacings between consecutive levels is of neither Poisson nor Wigner type but is qualitatively similar to that of the original Haldane--Shastry spin chain. This suggests that spin chains of Haldane--Shastry type are exceptional integrable models since they do not satisfy a well-known conjecture of Berry and Tabor, according to which the spacings distribution of a generic integrable system should be Poissonian. We derive a simple analytic expression for the cumulative spacings distribution of the $B{C}_{N}$-type Polychronakos-Frahm chain using only a few essential properties of its spectrum such as the Gaussian character of the level density and the fact that the energy levels are equally spaced. This expression is shown to be in excellent agreement with the numerical data.

Conserved charges of non-Yangian type for the Frahm-Polychronakos spin chain

Pierre Mathieu, Y Xudous

Through an ℏ-expansion of the confined Calogero model with spin exchange interactions, we extract a generating function for the involutive conserved charges of the Frahm-Polychronakos spin chain. The resulting conservation laws possess the spin chain Yangian symmetry, although they are not expressible in terms of these Yangians.
