Abstract

Abstract We derive an explicit expression for the leading term in the long-time, large-distance asymptotic expansion of a transverse dynamical two-point function of the XX chain in the spacelike regime. This expression is valid for all nonzero finite temperatures and for all magnetic fields below the saturation threshold. It is obtained here by means of a straightforward term-by-term analysis of a thermal form factor series, derived in previous work, and demonstrates the usefulness of the latter.

Space-like asymptotics of the thermal two-point functions of the XXZ spin-1/2 chain

Frank Göhmann, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski

Abstract This work proposes a closed formula for the leading term of the large-distance and long-time asymptotics in a cone of the space-like regime for the transverse dynamical two-point functions of the XXZ spin 1/2 chain at finite temperatures. The result follows from a simple analysis of the thermal form factor series for dynamical correlation functions. The obtained leading asymptotics are driven by the Bethe Ansatz data associated with the first sub-leading eigenvalue of the quantum transfer matrix.

Thermal form factors of theXXZchain and the large-distance asymptotics of its temperature dependent correlation functions

Maxime Dugave, Frank Göhmann, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski

We derive expressions for the form factors of the quantum transfer matrix of the spin- X X Z chain which are suitable for taking the infinite Trotter number limit. These form factors determine the finitely many amplitudes in the leading asymptotics of the finite-temperature correlation functions of the model. We consider form factor expansions of the longitudinal and transversal two-point functions. Remarkably, the formulae for the amplitudes are in both cases of the same form. We also explain how to adapt our formulae to the description of ground-state correlation functions of the finite chain. The usefulness of our novel formulae is demonstrated by working out explicit results in the high- and low-temperature limits. We obtain, in particular, the large-distance asymptotics of the longitudinal two-point functions for small temperatures by summing up the asymptotically most relevant terms in the form factor expansion of a generating function of the longitudinal correlation functions. As expected, the leading term in the expansion of the corresponding two-point functions is in accordance with conformal field theory predictions. Here it is obtained for the first time by a direct calculation.

Low-temperature large-distance asymptotics of the transversal two-point functions of the XXZ chain

Maxime Dugave, Frank Göhmann, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski

We derive the low-temperature large-distance asymptotics of the transversal two-point functions of the XXZ chain by summing up the asymptotically dominant terms of their expansion into form factors of the quantum transfer matrix. Our asymptotic formulae are numerically efficient and match well with known results for vanishing magnetic field and for short distances and magnetic fields below the saturation field.

High-temperature analysis of the transverse dynamical two-point correlation function of the XX quantum-spin chain

Frank Göhmann, Karol Kajetan Kozlowski, Junji Suzuki

We analyze the transverse dynamical two-point correlation function of the XX chain by means of a thermal form factor series. The series is rewritten in terms of the resolvent and the Fredholm determinant of an integrable integral operator. This connects it with a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. We express the correlation function in terms of the solution of the matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. The matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem is then solved asymptotically in the high-temperature limit. This allows us to obtain the leading high-temperature contribution to the two-point correlation function at any fixed space-time separation.

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.

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

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.
