We consider the integrable SU(N)-invariant Heisenberg model in one dimension with degrees of freedom in the symmetric rank-m tensor representation. It is shown that for antiferromagnetic coupling the zero-temperature susceptibility to an arbitrary field breaking the SU(N) invariance of the internal degrees of freedom has logarithmic singularities as the field tends to zero. The logarithms arise from the interference of the two ``Fermi points'' of the spin-wave spectrum and do not depend on the level splitting scheme. These properties hold for a variety of models, e.g., the SU(N)-invariant Heisenberg chain of spin S=(N-1)/2, the Babujian-Takhtajan model, the N-component fermion gas interacting in one dimension by a repulsive \ensuremath{\delta}-function potential, the N-component supersymmetric t-J model in one dimension, the Gross-Neveu model, and the SU(N) generalization of the Hubbard chain.We consider the integrable SU(N)-invariant Heisenberg model in one dimension with degrees of freedom in the symmetric rank-m tensor representation.

Anomalous low-temperature specific heat of the antiferromagnetic SU(N) Heisenberg model in a field

K. Lee

We discuss the low-temperature specific heat of the integrable SU(N)- invariant Heisenberg model in one dimension with degrees of freedom in the symmetric rank- $m$ tensor representation, especially for the antiferromagnetic coupling. It is known that the linear specific heat coefficient $\gam$ is a function of a field which breaks the SU(N) invariance of the internal degrees of freedom. We calculate the $\gam$ in a zero field and in a small field. The in-field $\gam$ is less than the zero-field $\gam$ as expected since the entropy is reduced in the ordered system. The zero-field $\gam$ is the same as the one obtained by the prediction of the critical behavior of 1D quantum spin systems via conformal field theory. This extends the previous results for N=2 to an arbitrary N.We discuss the low-temperature specific heat of the integrable SU(N)- invariant Heisenberg model in one dimension with degrees of freedom in the symmetric rank-$m$ tensor representation, especially for the antiferromagnetic coupling.
