Differential Equations for Correlation Functions

Abstract

Introduction The natural language for the description of correlation functions in exactly solvable models is the language of differential equations. The determinant representation of correlation functions in the previous chapter can be used to obtain these differential equations. An ordinary differential equation (of the Painlevètype) for the equal-time, zero temperature correlation function of the impenetrable Bose gas was obtained in. In that paper (starting from Lenard's formula for the two-point zero temperature equal-time correlator of impenetrable bosons) it was shown that the correlator is described by an ordinary differential equation (reducible to the Painlevè trascendent), and multipoint zero temperature equal-time correlators were also described as solutions of differential equations. The considerations in that paper were based on the spectral isomonodromic deformation method. Our approach here is different. We begin by considering the logarithm of the determinant of the linear integral operator entering the representation for the correlator as a τ-function for some integrable nonlinear evolutionary system. Then the linear integral equations playing the role of the Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equations for this integrable system are constructed. The differential equations for correlators are derived, in fact, from these integral equations (it is worth mentioning that the idea of obtaining the differential equations from the integral ones can be found in. This approach permits one to include time- and temperature-dependent correlators for impenetrable bosons in the same framework. It is remarkable that space- and time-dependent correlation functions are derived by partial differential equations which almost coincide with the original classical nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the only difference being that complex involution is dropped.

DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS FOR QUANTUM CORRELATION FUNCTIONS

Alexander Rudol'fovich Its, Anatoli G. Izergin, V. E. Korepin +1 more

The quantum nonlinear Schrödinger equation (one dimensional Bose gas) is considered. Classification of representations of Yangians with highest weight vector permits us to represent correlation function as a determinant of a Fredholm integral operator. This integral operator can be treated as the Gelfand-Levitan operator for some new differential equation. These differential equations are written down in the paper. They generalize the fifth Painlève transcendent, which describe equal time, zero temperature correlation function of an impenetrable Bose gas. These differential equations drive the quantum correlation functions of the Bose gas. The Riemann problem, associated with these differential equations permits us to calculate asymp-totics of quantum correlation functions. Quantum correlation function (Fredholm determinant) plays the role of τ functions of these new differential equations. For the impenetrable Bose gas space and time dependent correlation function is equal to τ function of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation itself, For a penetrable Bose gas (finite coupling constant c) the correlator is τ-function of an integro-differentiation equation.

The Matrix Riemann-Hilbert Problem for Correlation Functions

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

Introduction In the previous chapters correlation functions were represented as determinants of a special form of Fredholm integral operator. First, a differential equation was obtained for the time-independent zero temperature field correlation function for the impenetrable Bose gas (it depends only on one variable—distance). By means of an isomonodromic deformation technique A. Jimbo, T. Miwa, Y. Mori and M. Sato wrote down the ordinary differential equation (of Painlevè type). In the previous chapter differential equations for correlation functions in more general situations (with time, temperature and for finite coupling) were constructed. A.R. Its came up with the idea of applying the matrix Riemann problem for the description of these correlation functions (Fredholm determinants). This permits us to write down partial differential equations (completely integrable) for correlation functions and evaluate the asymptotics of correlation functions. Below we follow this line. Integrable nonlinear partial differential equations for correlation functions of the one-dimensional nonrelativistic Bose gas with point-like repulsion between gas particles were given in section XIV. So quantum correlation functions can be expressed in terms of the solutions of classical nonlinear integrable evolution systems. These classical systems have been investigated already by means of the classical inverse scattering method. Our approach allows one, in particular, to solve the particularly interesting problem of calculating the asymptotics of correlators at large time and distance; this is done in the next section.

Correlation Functions for Impenetrable Bosons. The Determinant Representation

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

Introduction Impenetrable bosons in one space dimension are a special case (at coupling constant c → ∞) of the one-dimensional Bose gas (NS model) considered in detail in Chapter I. The results obtained there for the NS model can be specialized to the case of impenetrable bosons. It is to be said that all the formulæe are considerably simplified in this case. From the point of view of physics this is due to the fact that the δ-function potentials in the N -particle Hamiltonian (I.1.11) are now infinitely strong and the bosons cannot penetrate one another, so that the wave function should be equal to zero if the bosons' coordinates coincide. In this respect impenetrable bosons are rather similar to free fermions (see Appendix I.I). In this chapter correlation functions of impenetrable bosons are considered and their representations as Fredholm determinants of linear integral operators are given. The (very essential) simplification with respect to the general case is due to the fact that now all the auxiliary quantum fields can be set equal to zero (see IX.6), so that the kernels of these operators do not contain quantum fields. The determinant representation for the time-dependent correlator is easy to obtain in this case. Temperature correlation functions are considered as well as zero temperature ones.

Introduction to Part IV

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

The quantum correlation functions for different exactly solvable (completely integrable) models are all constructed in a similar way. In Part IV our main example will be the nonlinear Schrödinger (NS) equation. We shall also comment on the other models: the Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the Hubbard model and so on. We shall discuss different approaches to quantum correlation functions. Our main approach leads to differential equations for quantum correlation functions. These are classical nonlinear differential equations; they are completely integrable and closely related to the original classical differential equation that was quantized (the NS equation in our case). In the first stage of calculation of correlation functions we represent them as a determinant of some Predholm integral operator (here we shall use the results of Part III). The correct language for the description of quantum correlation functions is the language of τ functions, which was developed in. This helps us to relate the differential equations for quantum correlation functions with the hierarchy of the original classical differential equation that was quantized (the NS equation in our example). In this way we solve the most difficult problem; that of the evaluation of time-and temperature-dependent correlation functions. This approach can be applied not only to correlation functions for the NS equation, but also to the sine-Gordon model, to non-relativistic fermions, to the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic with special anisotropy and to other models.

Introduction to Part III

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

The algebraic Bethe Ansatz is a powerful method for the calculation of quantum correlation functions. In Part III we shall start this calculation. We shall arrive at an extremely important conclusion: quantum correlation functions can be represented as determinants of certain matrices. The dimension of these matrices is equal to the number of particles in the ground state. In order to better understand the nature of this matrix, one should look once more through section 6 of Chapter VI and section 10 of Chapter VII, where the determinant representation of the partition function for the six-vertex model with a special type of boundary conditions (domain wall) was obtained. Starting from determinant formulæe (VII.10.1) and (VII.10.2) and using also the formula for the determinant of the sum of two matrices (in the Appendix to Chapter IX), one can reproduce all the determinant formulæe in Part III. In the thermodynamic limit, the correlation functions will be represented as determinants of a Predholm integral operator. In Part IV, we shall explain how to use this determinant representation to write down the differential equation for a quantum correlation function. In Part IV we shall also discover that the differential equation for a quantum correlation function is closely related to the initial classical nonlinear differential equation, which was quantized (in our example this is the nonlinear Schrödinger equation). The quantum correlation functions play the role of the τ functions of a classical differential equation.

Differential equation for temperature-dependent correlation function of Delta-interacting Bose gas

Takeo Kojima, V. E. Korepin

We consider the quantum nonlinear Schrodinger equation in one space and one time dimension. It is equivalent to Bose gas with delta interaction. We are interested in the non-free-fermionic case. We calculate temperature-dependent correlation functions. The determinant representation for correlation functions simplifies in the small mass limit of the Bose particle. In this limit we describe the correlation function in terms of the Maxwell-Bloch differential equation. We solve this equation at large distance and evaluate asymptotics of correlation functions. 1 kojima@kurims.kyoto-u.ac.jp 2 korepin@yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp 2 korepin@insti.physics.sunysb.edu ?
