Abstract

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.

We consider XXX spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain with non-diagonal boundary conditions.We obtain a compact determinant representation for the scalar product of on-shell and off-shell Bethe vectors.In the particular case when both Bethe vectors are on shell, we obtain a determinant representation for the norm of on-shell Bethe vector and prove orthogonality of the on-shell vectors corresponding to the different eigenvalues of the transfer matrix.

Off-shell scalar products for the XXZ spin chain with open boundaries

W. Galléas

In this work we study scalar products of Bethe vectors associated with the XXZ spin chain with open boundary conditions. The scalar products are obtained as solutions of a system of functional equations. The description of scalar products through functional relations follows from a particular map having the reflection algebra as its domain and a function space as the codomain. Within this approach we find a multiple contour integral representation for the scalar products in which the homogeneous limit can be obtained trivially.

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

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

Abstract We consider the XXX open spin-1/2 chain with the most general non-diagonal boundary terms, that we solve by means of the quantum separation of variables (SoV) approach. We compute the scalar products of separate states, a class of states which notably contains all the eigenstates of the model. As usual for models solved by SoV, these scalar products can be expressed as some determinants with a non-trivial dependance in terms of the inhomogeneity parameters that have to be introduced for the method to be applicable. We show that these determinants can be transformed into alternative ones in which the homogeneous limit can easily be taken. These new representations can be considered as generalizations of the well-known determinant representation for the scalar products of the Bethe states of the periodic chain. In the particular case where a constraint is applied on the boundary parameters, such that the transfer matrix spectrum and eigenstates can be characterized in terms of polynomial solutions of a usual T - Q equation, the scalar product that we compute here corresponds to the scalar product between two off-shell Bethe-type states. If in addition one of the states is an eigenstate, the determinant representation can be simplified, hence leading in this boundary case to direct analogues of algebraic Bethe ansatz determinant representations of the scalar products for the periodic chain.

New approach to scalar products of Bethe vectors

Andrii Nikolaevich Liashyk

We consider quantum integrable models solvable by the algebraic Bethe ansatz and possessing $\mathfrak{gl}(2)$-invariant $R$-matrix. We study the models of both periodic boundary conditions and boundary conditions based on reflection algebra. We present a new method to calculate the scalar products based on formula of an action of transfer matrix of a model onto Bethe vector. Using this method we identify some coefficient in the multiple action of the transfer matrix with the scalar product between on-shell and off-shell Bethe vectors. This allows us to find determinant representation of the scalar products in both types of boundary conditions.

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.

Why scalar products in the algebraic Bethe ansatz have determinant representation

S. Belliard, N. A. Slavnov

Abstract We show that the scalar products of on-shell and off-shell Bethe vectors in the algebralic Bethe ansatz solvable models satisfy a system of linear equations. We find solutions to this system for a wide class of integrable models. We also apply our method to the XXX spin chain with broken U(l) symmetry.
