Abstract

A bstract The Izergin-Korepin model is an integrable model with the simplest twisted quantum affine algebra U q ( $$ {A}_2^{(2)} $$ A 2 2 ) symmetry. Applying the t - W method, we derive the homogeneous zeroes Bethe ansatz equations and the corresponding zeroes patterns of the Izergin-Korepin model with generic integrable boundaries. Based on these results, we analytically compute the surface energies and boundary excitations in different regimes of boundary parameters of the model. It is shown that in some regimes, correlation effect appears between two boundary fields.

Exact physical quantities of the $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ spin chain model with generic open boundary conditions

Pengcheng Lu, Junpeng Cao, Wen‐Li Yang +2 more

A bstract We study the quantum integrable spin chain model associated with the twisted $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ D 2 2 algebra (or simply the $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ D 2 2 model) under generic open boundary conditions. The Hamiltonian of this model can be factorized into the sum of two staggered XXZ spin chains. Applying the t - W method, we derive the homogeneous Bethe ansatz equations for the zeros of the transfer matrix eigenvalues and the patterns of the corresponding zeros of the staggered XXZ spin chain with generic integrable boundaries. Based on these results, we analytically compute the surface energies and excitation energies of the $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ D 2 2 model in different regimes of boundary parameters.

Root patterns and exact surface energy of the spin-1 Heisenberg model with generic open boundaries

Jiasheng Dong, Pengcheng Lu, Junpeng Cao +3 more

Abstract We investigate the thermodynamic limit and exact surface energy of the isotropic spin-1 Heisenberg chain with integrable generic open boundary conditions by a novel Bethe ansatz method. We obtain the homogeneous (or two-term) Bethe ansatz like equations for the zero roots of the transfer matrix. Based on the patterns of the zero roots, we analytical calculate the densities of zero roots and the surface energies of the model in all regimes of the boundary parameters.

Exact solution of the Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms

Kun Hao, Junpeng Cao, Guang-Liang Li +3 more

The Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms, a typical integrable model beyond A-type and without U(1)-symmetry, is studied via the offdiagonal Bethe ansatz method. Based on some intrinsic properties of the R-matrix and the K-matrices, certain operator product identities of the transfer matrix are obtained at some special points of the spectral parameter. These identities and the asymptotic behaviors of the transfer matrix together allow us to construct the inhomogeneous T − Q relation and the associated Bethe ansatz equations. In the diagonal boundary limit, the reduced results coincide exactly with those obtained via other methods.

We study the Izergin-Korepin Gaudin models with both periodic and open integrable boundary conditions, which describe quantum systems exhibiting novel long-range interactions. Using the Bethe Ansatz approach, we derive the eigenvalues of the Gaudin operators and the corresponding Bethe Ansatz equations.

Exact surface energy of the D2(1) spin chain with generic non-diagonal boundary reflections

Guang-Liang Li, Yi Qiao, Junpeng Cao +3 more

The exact solution of the D2(1) quantum spin chain with generic non-diagonal boundary reflections is obtained. It is found that the generating functional of conserved quantities of the system can be factorized as the product of transfer matrices of two anisotropic XXZ spin chains with open boundary conditions. By using the factorization identities and the fusion technique, the eigenvalues and the Bethe ansatz equations of the model are obtained. The eigenvalues are also parameterized by the zero roots of the transfer matrix, and the patterns of root distributions are obtained. Based on them, ground states energy and the surface energies induced by the twisted boundary magnetic fields in the thermodynamic limit are obtained. These results are checked by the numerical calculations. The corresponding isotropic limit is also discussed. The results given in this paper are the foundation to study the exact physical properties of high rank Dn(1) model by using the nested processes.

Exact surface energy and helical spinons in the XXZ spin chain with arbitrary nondiagonal boundary fields

Yi Qiao, Junpeng Cao, Wen‐Li Yang +2 more

An analytic method is proposed to compute the surface energy and elementary excitations of the XXZ spin chain with generic nondiagonal boundary fields. For the gapped case, in some boundary parameter regimes the contributions of the two boundary fields to the surface energy are nonadditive. Such a correlation effect between the two boundaries also depends on the parity of the site number $N$ even in the thermodynamic limit $N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$. For the gapless case, contributions of the two boundary fields to the surface energy are additive due to the absence of long-range correlation in the bulk. Although the $U(1)$ symmetry of the system is broken, exact spinonlike excitations, which obviously do not carry spin-$\frac{1}{2}$, are observed. The present method provides a universal procedure to deal with quantum integrable systems either with or without $U(1)$ symmetry.
