Abstract

We report a two-parametric irreducible infinitely dimensional representation of the Lax integrability condition for the Fermi Hubbard chain. In addition to being of fundamental interest, hinting at possible novel quantum symmetry of the model, our construction allows for an explicit representation of an exact steady state many-body density operator for a nonequilibrium boundary-driven Hubbard chain with arbitrary (asymmetric) particle source (sink) rates at the left (right) end of the chain and with arbitrary boundary values of chemical potentials.

Lax pair formulation for one-dimensional Hubbard open chain with chemical potential

Xi‐Wen Guan, Mei‐Shan Wang, Shan‐De Yang

The Lax pair for the one-dimensional Hubbard spin chain with open boundary conditions (BC) is explicitly constructed and two different kinds of boundary K-matrices compatible with the integrability of the model are obtained. Our construction provides an alternative and direct demonstration for the quantum integrability of the model and it is found that the model is related to a class of commuting transfer matrices of an equivalent coupled asymmetric six-vertex model with open BC. Our results show that the chemical potential term is indeed nontrivial for the underlying algebraic structure of the model.

Exact Nonequilibrium Steady State of an Open Hubbard Chain

Tomaž Prosen

We discuss the current carrying nonequilibrium steady state of an open fermionic Hubbard chain that is strongly driven by Markovian incoherent processes localized at the chain ends. An explicit form of an exact many-body density operator for any value of the coupling parameter is presented. The structure of a matrix product form of the solution is encoded in terms of a novel diagrammatic technique that should allow for generalization to other integrable nonequilibrium models.

Matrix product solutions of boundary driven quantum chains

Tomaž Prosen

We review recent progress on constructing non-equilibrium steady state density operators of boundary driven locally interacting quantum chains, where driving is implemented via Markovian dissipation channels attached to the chain's ends. We discuss explicit solutions in three different classes of quantum chains, specifically, the paradigmatic (anisotropic) Heisenberg spin- chain, the Fermi–Hubbard chain, and the Lai–Sutherland spin-1 chain, and discuss universal concepts which characterize these solutions, such as matrix product ansatz and a more structured walking graph state ansatz. The central theme is the connection between the matrix product form of nonequilibrium states and the integrability structures of the bulk Hamiltonian, such as the Lax operators and the Yang–Baxter equation. However, there is a remarkable distinction with respect to the conventional quantum inverse scattering method, namely addressing nonequilibrium steady state density operators requires non-unitary irreducible representations of Yang–Baxter algebra which are typically of infinite dimensionality. Such constructions result in non-Hermitian, and often also non-diagonalisable families of commuting transfer operators which in turn result in novel conservation laws of the integrable bulk Hamiltonians. For example, in the case of the anisotropic Heisenberg model, quasi-local conserved operators which are odd under spin reversal (or spin flip) can be constructed, whereas the conserved operators stemming from orthodox Hermitian transfer operators (via logarithmic differentiation) are all even under spin reversal.

Integral formula for the propagator of the one-dimensional Hubbard model

Taiki Ishiyama, Kazuya Fujimoto, Tomohiro Sasamoto

Abstract We present an exact integral formula for the multi-particle propagator of the one-dimensional Fermi–Hubbard model on an infinite lattice. The proof is based on the nested Bethe ansatz without relying on the string hypothesis. Our formula enables an explicit integral representation of the time evolution of arbitrary finite-particle wave functions and thereby provides a foundation for the exact analysis of nonequilibrium dynamics in the Hubbard model. It can further be applied to related open quantum models.

Nonequilibrium integrable quantum dynamical systems

Lenart Zadnik

We present two directions of research in statistical mechanics of nonequilibrium onedimensional quantum systems. One is related to isolated integrable models, the other one to exactly solvable dissipatively driven spin chains. The device enabling their analysis is identified as the quantum group symmetry. In the framework of isolated systems we focus on the concept of integrable Floquet driven systems. In particular, we show how to build such systems out of the basic constituents of integrability structure. This allows substantiated and conclusive statements,for instance, about the transport phenomena. Despite their inherent relation, the presented integrable periodically driven models originate in two different ideas. On the one hand we have Trotterisations of integrable spin chains, concieved in an effort to better understand the dynamics of spin models. Then, there are systems originating in the attempts to solve quantum field theory in an algebraically closed form, for example, the quantum Hirota equation. The bulk of our consideration of isolated quantum systems consists of the construction of extensive conservation laws that either (i) constitute the generalised Gibbs ensemble and the hydrodynamic description of thermalisation after a quantum quench, or (ii) prevent the decay of current autocorrelations and thus characterise ideal transport in the system. The exact way in which these charges determine the dynamics stems from the symmetries of the quantum group representations. The second part of the exposition is dedicated to open quantum systems. Again we distinguish two formally related settings. The first one is that of a boundary driven quantum cellular automaton, our particular example being the integrable Trotterisation of the Heisenberg magnet. Starting from a repeated interaction protocol, in which the system under scrutiny is repeatedly coupled to the environment, we introduce the Kraus map as a general form of a dissipative time evolution of the density matrix. We then solve for its unique nonequilibrium steady state, using integrability structure of the model. The other setting is that of a dissipatively boundary driven spin chain in the continuous time. Here we present the recently developed formalism of inhomogeneous Lax structure. Using it we demonstrate the solvability of the XXZ and XYZ spin chains, acted upon by the Lindblad operators that polarise the boundary spins in arbitrary directions. The ansatz for the steady state is particularly interesting, since it exhibits a previously unknown integrability structure, differing from site to site in the spin chain. This structure can independently produce nontrivial conservation laws in an isolated spin chain with arbitrary boundary fields.

Lax Pair forSU(n) Hubbard Model

Rui‐Hong Yue, Ryu Sasaki B

For one dimensional SU(n) Hubbard model, a pair of Lax operators are derived, which give a set of fundamental equations for the quantum inverse scattering method under both periodic and open boundary conditions. This provides another proof of the integrability of the model under periodic boundary condition.
