The q-deformed Haldane-Shastry chain at $q=i$ with even length

Abstract

In this note we announce some results extending our recent work with A. Toufik on the free-fermion point $q=i$ of the Haldane-Shastry chain to the case with an even number N of sites. The resulting long-range version of the Heisenberg XX chain may be viewed as a model of fermions with extended gl(1|1) symmetry. Unlike for odd N, the conserved charges are nilpotent and exhibit Jordan blocks.

Solvable Nonunitary Fermionic Long-Range Model with Extended Symmetry

Adel Ben Moussa, Jules Lamers, Didina Serban +1 more

We define and study a long-range version of the xx model, arising as the free-fermion point of the xxz-type Haldane-Shastry (HS) chain. It has a description via nonunitary fermions, based on the free-fermion Temperley-Lieb algebra, and may also be viewed as an alternating gl(1|1) spin chain. Even and odd lengths behave very differently; we focus on odd length. The model is integrable, and we explicitly identify two commuting Hamiltonians. While nonunitary, their spectrum is real by PT symmetry. One Hamiltonian is chiral and quadratic in fermions, while the other is parity invariant and quartic. Their one-particle spectra have two linear branches, realizing a massless relativistic dispersion on the lattice. The appropriate fermionic modes arise from "quasi-translation" symmetry, which replaces ordinary translation symmetry. The model exhibits exclusion statistics, like the isotropic HS chain, with even more "extended symmetry" and larger degeneracies.

Landscapes of integrable long-range spin chains

Rob Klabbers, Jules Lamers

We clarify how the elliptic integrable spin chain recently found by Matushko and Zotov (MZ) relates to various other known long-range spin chains. We evaluate various limits. More precisely, we tweak the MZ chain to allow for a short-range limit, and show it is the XX model with q-deformed antiperiodic boundary conditions. Taking $q\to 1$ gives the elliptic spin chain of Sechin and Zotov (SZ), whose trigonometric case is due to Fukui and Kawakami. It, too, can be adjusted to admit a short-range limit, which we demonstrate to be the antiperiodic XX model. By identifying the translation operator of the MZ chain, which is nontrivial, we show that antiperiodicity is a persistent feature. We compare the resulting (vertex-type) landscape of the MZ chain with the (face-type) landscape containing the Heisenberg XXX and Haldane--Shastry chains. We find that the landscapes only share a single point: the rational Haldane-Shastry chain. Using wrapping we show that the SZ chain is the antiperiodic version of the Inozemtsev chain in a precise sense, and expand both chains around their nearest-neighbour limits to facilitate their interpretations as long-range deformations.

A novel class of translationally invariant spin chains with long-range interactions

B. Basu-Mallick, F. Finkel, A. González-López

Abstract We introduce a new class of open, translationally invariant spin chains with long-range interactions depending on both spin permutation and (polarized) spin reversal operators, which includes the Haldane-Shastry chain as a particular degenerate case. The new class is characterized by the fact that the Hamiltonian is invariant under “twisted” translations, combining an ordinary translation with a spin flip at one end of the chain. It includes a remarkable model with elliptic spin-spin interactions, smoothly interpolating between the XXX Heisenberg model with anti-periodic boundary conditions and a new open chain with sites uniformly spaced on a half-circle and interactions inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the spins. We are able to compute in closed form the partition function of the latter chain, thereby obtaining a complete description of its spectrum in terms of a pair of independent su(1|1) and su(m/2) motifs when the number m of internal degrees of freedom is even. This implies that the even m model is invariant under the direct sum of the Yangians Y (gl(1|1)) and Y (gl(0|m/2)). We also analyze several statistical properties of the new chain’s spectrum. In particular, we show that it is highly degenerate, which strongly suggests the existence of an underlying (twisted) Yangian symmetry also for odd m.

Resurrecting the partially isotropic Haldane-Shastry model

Jules Lamers

We present an alternative, simpler expression for the Hamiltonian of the partially isotropic (XXZ-like) version of the Haldane-Shastry model, which was derived by D. Uglov over two decades ago in an apparently little-known preprint. While resembling the pairwise long-range form of the Haldane-Shastry model, our formula accounts for the multispin interactions obtained by Uglov. Our expression is physically meaningful, makes hermiticity manifest, and is computationally more efficient. We discuss the model's properties, including its limits and (ordinary and quantum-affine) symmetries, and review the model's exact spectrum found by Uglov for finite spin-chain length, which parallels the isotropic case up to level splitting due to the anisotropy. We also extend the partially isotropic model to higher rank, with $SU(n)$ ``spins,'' for which the spectrum is determined by ${\mathfrak{sl}}_{n}$ motifs.

The deformed Inozemtsev spin chain

Rob Klabbers, Jules Lamers

The Inozemtsev chain is an exactly solvable interpolation between the short-range Heisenberg and long-range Haldane–Shastry (HS) chains. In order to unlock its potential to study spin interactions with tunable interaction range using the powerful tools of integrability, the model’s mathematical properties require better understanding. As a major step in this direction, we present a new generalisation of the Inozemtsev chain with spin symmetry reduced to \textit{U}(1) 𝑈 ( 1 ) , interpolating between a Heisenberg XXZ chain and the XXZ-type HS chain, and integrable throughout. Underlying it is a new quantum many-body system that extends the elliptic Ruijsenaars system by including spins, contains the trigonometric spin-Ruijsenaars–Macdonald system as a special case, and yields our spin chain by ‘freezing’. Our models have potential applications from condensed-matter to high-energy theory, and provide a crucial step towards a general theory for long-range integrability.

Conservation laws of the Haldane-Shastry type spin chains

Cao, Junpeng, Peng cheng He, Yuzhu Jiang +1 more

A systematic method to construct the complete set of conserved quantities of the Haldane-Shastry type spin chains is proposed. The hidden relationship between the Yang-Baxter relation and the conservation laws of the long-range interacting integrable models is exposed explicitly. An integrable anisotropic Haldane-Shastry model is also constructed.
