Thermodynamics of the Classical Massive-Thirring-Sine-Gordon Model

S. G. Chung

The proper classical limit $\ensuremath{\hbar}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ of the quantum Bethe-Ansatz thermodynamics gives a new set of integral equations for the thermodynamics of the classical massive-Thirring-sine-Gordon model. The theory contains the thermodynamic information about breathers and solitons, and reproduces the transfer-matrix-method result for arbitrary coupling constant.

Thermodynamics of the lattice quantum sine-Gordon model and the lattice massive Thirring model

M. Ishikawa, Kazuo Hida

The thermodynamics is studied for two exactly soluble models by means of the Bethe ansatz method: the lattice quantum sine-Gordon model and the lattice massive Thirring model proposed by Izergin and Korepin (1981-82), and Weiss and Schotte (1983), respectively. The specific heat is analysed for each of these models as regards the effect of the cut-off parameter. The classical limit of the free energy is also discussed for the lattice quantum Sine-Gordon model.

Factorized S -Matrix Method for the Thermodynamics of the Massive Thirring Model

S. G. Chung, Yoshi Oono, Yia‐Chung Chang

A new method based on the $S$-matrix factorization is developed for the thermodynamics of the massive Thirring model. The method can be applied to any charge sector and coupling constant. In the zero-charge sector, the present theory reproduces all the Bethe-Ansatz-theory results in the attractive-coupling regime, and agrees with a perturbation calculation in the repulsive-coupling regime.

Bethe-ansatz massive-Thirring-model thermodynamics: The weak-coupling limit

X. Zotos

Using the Bethe-ansatz method we analyze the thermodynamic properties of the massive Thirring model in the zero-charge-sector attractive case, including the "charged vacuum" excitations introduced by Korepin. The energy of these excitations is calculated as a function of momentum and temperature and agrees with Korepin's results at $T=0$. The specific heat is presented and shown to vary smoothly for the whole range of coupling in the attractive regime.

Bethe-ansatz quantum sine-Gordon thermodynamics. The specific heat

Michael Fowler, X. Zotos

The Bethe-ansatz equations for the thermodynamic properties of the quantum sine-Gordon systems are derived in the zero-charge-sector attractive case. For rational values of the coupling parameter $\frac{\ensuremath{\mu}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}$ these reduce to a finite set, solved here numerically for $\ensuremath{\mu}=[\frac{(n\ensuremath{-}1)}{n}]\ensuremath{\pi}$, for several values of $n$, to give the specific heat as a function of temperature. The "soliton" contribution peaks at $\ensuremath{\simeq}0.4$ soliton masses for $\ensuremath{\mu}=\frac{4}{5}\ensuremath{\pi}$, shifting downward for higher $\ensuremath{\mu}$. A detailed analysis of the sine-Gordon limit of the $\mathrm{XYZ}$ spin chain is presented, and a non-Lorentz-invariant feature of that limit is noted.

Classical sine-Gordon limit of massive-Thirring-model thermodynamics

Michael Fowler

It has been shown numerically by Chung that in the classical sine-Gordon limit the low-temperature thermodynamic properties of the massive Thirring model, as calculated using the Bethe ansatz, correspond to those of a free-phonon gas. We give an analytic derivation of this result and find simple expressions for the finite-temperature "excitation-spectrum" functions, and discuss their physical significance.
