Cut-off parameters of the bosonisation technique in one dimension

Abstract

The Jordan boson representation and point-splitting regularisation are applied to the one-dimensional two-fermion model (TFM) with momentum-transfer cut-off and zero-mode terms included. It is shown that the correlation functions of the Tomonago-Luttinger model obtained in this way coincide with those given by diagram summation. The energy gaps entering the well known Luther-Emery-Peschel back-scattering and Umklapp scattering solutions acquire a physical dependence on the momentum-transfer cut-off. First-order perturbation calculations of the charge-density function give different results for the spin-parallel 'back-scattering' contribution to the bosonised TFM and corresponding Fermi gas model, thus indicating that these models are not equivalent.

Scaling equations for the one-dimensional two-fermion model

C. Mantea, M Aposto, Victor Bârsan +3 more

The equivalence of the one-dimensional two-fermion model, on one hand, with the two-dimensional Coulomb gas and sine-Gordon models on the other is worked out by employing the Jordan boson representation and the point-splitting regularization. The distinction is made throughout between the bandwidth cut-off and momentum-transfer cut-off. It is shown that the coupling constants, both in the weak-coupling regime and near the Luther-Emery exact solution, scale with the momentum-transfer cut-off. The relationship between the bosonized form of the two-fermion model and the corresponding Fermi gas model is briefly discussed.

Bosonisation of the one-dimensional two-fermion model: boson representation

Marian Apostol

Jordan's theory of the boson representation of the fermion fields in one dimension is reviewed and generalised to the one-dimensional two-fermion model (TFM). It is shown that an additional constraint (Jordan's commutator) on the fermion fields has been overlooked so far by the theory of the TFM. This supplementary condition requires a particular cut-off procedure which has been little considered in recent times.

Equivalence of a One-Dimensional Fermion Model and the Two-Dimensional Coulomb Gas

S. T. Chui, Patrick A. Lee

We show that the one-dimensional Luttinger model generalized to include spin and backward scattering is equivalent to a two-dimensional Coulomb gas. Scaling equations are derived and correlation functions are given simple physical interpretation in terms of the Coulomb gas; e.g., existence of an energy gap can be understood in terms of Debye screening. We conclude that an energy gap exists for ${U}_{\ensuremath{\parallel}}<|{U}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}|$ so that triplet excitations are nondivergent, and we provide physical arguments to support the exponents proposed by Luther and Emery for singlet excitations for general coupling constant.

Coupling between charge and spin degrees of freedom in the one-dimensional Fermi gas with backscattering

F. D. M. Haldane

A slightly corrected version of the 'boson representation' of fermions in the Luttinger model (that avoids the alpha to 0 limit) is used to obtain explicitly the lowest-order interactions between charge- and spin-density waves in the generalised model that includes backscattering. This is in contrast to the decoupling of these degrees of freedom reported by Luther and Emery. Instead, the results obtained by these authors are identified as applying to a model with long-range coupling between spin densities at different points.

Bosonisation without bosons in the one-dimensional electron gas

G. Grinstein, Petter Minnhagen, Anders Rosengren

The model one-dimensional electron gas, defined by a particular ultraviolet cut-off procedure, is shown to decompose into two parts, a Tomonaga-Luttinger model and a model equivalent to the two-dimensional Coulomb gas. For a particular value of one of its coupling constants, this latter model is shown to be equivalent to a model of free fermions. These results, familiar features of the boson representation of the one-dimensional electron gas, are here derived entirely within the context of fermions. The cut-off procedure used differs from those normally considered in the literature. The significance of these differences is discussed.

Functional bosonisation of the Tomonaga-Luttinger model

Derek K. K. Lee, Yang Chen

A new bosonisation procedure based on an exact method of functional integration is applied to the one-dimensional Tomonaga (1950)-Luttinger (1963) model with forward scattering. This method circumvents the conventional procedure where the fermion field operator is represented by (bosonic) charge and spin density fields. Fictitious auxiliary fields are introduced to deal with the interaction term so that the fermionic degrees of freedom can be integrated out exactly. In addition to the usual description of the system in terms of charge and spin fluctuations, an effective action in terms of the auxiliary fields can be used. The evaluation of the Green function is facilitated if the latter route is taken. The authors' results for the spinless and spin-1/2 cases agree with previous work.
