Abstract

We extract the long-distance asymptotic behaviour of two-point correlation functions in massless quantum integrable models containing multi-species excitations. For such a purpose, we extend to these models the method of a large-distance regime re-summation of the form factor expansion of correlation functions. The key feature of our analysis is a technical hypothesis on the large-volume behaviour of the form factors of local operators in such models. We check the validity of this hypothesis on the example of the SU ( 3 ) -invariant XXX magnet by means of the determinant representations for the form factors of local operators in this model. Our approach confirms the structure of the critical exponents obtained previously for numerous models solvable by the nested Bethe Ansatz.

Large-distance asymptotic behaviour of multi-point correlation functions in massless quantum models

N Kitanine, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski, Jean Michel Maillet +1 more

We provide a microscopic model setting that allows us to readily access the large-distance asymptotic behaviour of multi-point correlation functions in massless, one-dimensional, quantum models. The method of analysis we propose is based on the form factor expansion of the correlation functions and does not build on any field theory reasoning. It constitutes an extension of the restricted sum techniques leading to the large-distance asymptotic behaviour of two-point correlation functions obtained previously.

Long-distance and large-time asymptotic behaviour of dynamic correlation functions in the massless regime of the XXZ spin-1/2 chain

Karol Kajetan Kozlowski

Starting from the massless form factor expansion for the two-point dynamical correlation functions obtained recently, I extract the long-distance and large-time asymptotics of these correlators. The analysis yields the critical exponents and associated amplitudes characterizing the asymptotics. The results are obtained on the basis of exact and first principle based considerations: they do not rely, at any stage, on some hypothetical correspondence with a field theory or the use of any other phenomenological approach. Being based on form factor expansion, the method allows one to clearly identify which contributions to the asymptotics issue from which class of excited states. All this permits to settle the long-standing question of the contribution of bound states to the asymptotics of two-point functions. For instance, when considering the long-distance m behavior of equal-time correlators, the analysis shows that while, in fine, the bound states only produce contributions that are exponentially small in m, they also play a key role in canceling out certain power-law contributions which, should they be present, would break explicitly the universality structure of the long-distance behavior.

A form factor approach to the asymptotic behavior of correlation functions in critical models

N Kitanine, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski, Jean Michel Maillet +2 more

We propose a form factor approach for the computation of the large distance asymptotic behavior of correlation functions in quantum critical (integrable) models. In the large distance regime we reduce the summation over all excited states to one over the particle/hole excitations lying on the Fermi surface in the thermodynamic limit. We compute these sums, over the so-called critical form factors, exactly. Thus we obtain the leading large distance behavior of each oscillating harmonic of the correlation function asymptotic expansion, including the corresponding amplitudes. Our method is applicable to a wide variety of integrable models and yields precisely the results stemming from the Luttinger liquid approach, the conformal field theory predictions and our previous analysis of the correlation functions from their multiple-integral representations. We argue that our scheme applies to a general class of non-integrable quantum critical models as well.

Microscopic approach to a class of 1D quantum critical models

Karol Kajetan Kozlowski, Jean Michel Maillet

Starting from the finite volume form factors of local operators, we show how and under which hypothesis the c = 1 free boson conformal field theory in two-dimensions emerges as an effective theory governing the large-distance regime of multi-point correlation functions for a large class of one-dimensional massless quantum Hamiltonians. In our approach, in the large-distance critical regime, the local operators of the initial model are represented by well suited vertex operators associated to the free boson model. This provides an effective field theoretic description of the large distance behaviour of correlation functions in 1D quantum critical models. We develop this description starting from the first principles and directly at the microscopic level, namely in terms of the properties of the finite volume matrix elements of local operators.

Thermal form factor approach to the ground-state correlation functions of the XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic massive regime*

Maxime Dugave, Frank Göhmann, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski +1 more

Abstract We use the form factors of the quantum transfer matrix in the zero-temperature limit in order to study the two-point ground-state correlation functions of the XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic massive regime. We obtain novel form factor series representations of the correlation functions which differ from those derived either from the q -vertex-operator approach or from the algebraic Bethe Ansatz approach to the usual transfer matrix. We advocate that our novel representations are numerically more efficient and allow for a straightforward calculation of the large-distance asymptotic behaviour of the two-point functions. Keeping control over the temperature corrections to the two-point functions we see that these are of order T ∞ in the whole antiferromagnetic massive regime. The isotropic limit of our result yields a novel form factor series representation for the two-point correlation functions of the XXX chain at zero magnetic field.

Asymptotic analysis of the form-factors of quantum spin chains

G. Kulkarni

Since a long-time, the quantum integrable systems have remained an area where modern mathematical methods have given an access to interesting results in the study of physical systems. The exact computations, both numerical and asymptotic, of the correlation function is one of the most important subject of the theory of the quantum integrable models. In this context an approach based on the calculation of form factors has been proved to be a more effective one. In this thesis, we develop a new method based on the algebraic Bethe ansatz for the computation of the form-factors in thermodynamic limit. It is both applied to and described in the context of isotropic XXX Heisenberg chain, which is one of the examples of an interesting case of critical models where the Fermi-zone is non-compact. In a particular case of two-spinon form-factors, we obtain an exact result in a closed-form which matches the previous result obtained from an approach based on $q$-vertex operator algebra. This method is then generalised to form-factors in higher spinon sectors where we find a reduced determinant representation for the form-factors, in which a higher-level structure for the form-factors is revealed.
