Dynamic Matrix Product Ansatz and Bethe Ansatz Equation for Asymmetric Exclusion Process with Periodic Boundary

Abstract

A new type of dynamic matrix product ansatz is proposed. The states which satisfy the "imaginary time" Schrödinger equation are represented in the form of products of time-dependent and time-independent matrices. From the algebra among the matrices, the Bethe ansatz equation is derived for the asymmetric exclusion process and the XXZ spin chain under the periodic boundary condition.

Derivation of a matrix product representation for the asymmetric exclusion process from the algebraic Bethe ansatz

O. Golinelli, Kirone Mallick

We derive, using the algebraic Bethe ansatz, a generalized matrix product ansatz for the asymmetric exclusion process (ASEP) on a one-dimensional periodic lattice. In this matrix product ansatz, the components of the eigenvectors of the ASEP Markov matrix can be expressed as traces of products of non-commuting operators. We derive the relations between the operators involved and show that they generate a quadratic algebra. Our construction provides explicit finite-dimensional representations for the generators of this algebra.

The matrix product ansatz for the six-vertex model

Matheus J. Lazo

Recently it was shown that the eigenfunctions for the the asymmetric exclusion problem and several of its generalizations as well as a huge family of quantum chains, like the anisotropic Heisenberg model, Fateev- Zamolodchikov model, Izergin-Korepin model, Sutherland model, t-J model, Hubbard model, etc, can be expressed by a matrix product ansatz. Differently from the coordinate Bethe ansatz, where the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are plane wave combinations, in this ansatz the components of the eigenfunctions are obtained through the algebraic properties of properly defined matrices. In this work, we introduce a formulation of a matrix product ansatz for the six-vertex model with periodic boundary condition, which is the paradigmatic example of integrability in two dimensions. Remarkably, our studies of the six-vertex model are in agreement with the conjecture that all models exactly solved by the Bethe ansatz can also be solved by an appropriated matrix product ansatz.

Exact solutions of exactly integrable quantum chains by a matrix product ansatz

Francisco Castilho Alcaraz, Matheus J. Lazo

Most of the exact solutions of quantum one-dimensional Hamiltonians are obtained thanks to the success of the Bethe ansatz on its several formulations. According to this ansatz, the amplitudes of the eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian are given by a sum of permutations of appropriate plane waves. In this paper, alternatively, we present a matrix product ansatz that asserts that those amplitudes are given in terms of a matrix product. The eigenvalue equation for the Hamiltonian defines the algebraic properties of the matrices defining the amplitudes. The consistency of the commutativity relations among the elements of the algebra implies the exact integrability of the model. The matrix product ansatz we propose allows an unified and simple formulation of several exact integrable Hamiltonians. In order to introduce and illustrate this ansatz we present the exact solutions of several quantum chains with one and two global conservation laws and periodic boundaries such as the XXZ chain, spin-1 Fateev–Zamolodchikov model, Izergin–Korepin model, Sutherland model, t – J model, Hubbard model, etc. Formulation of the matrix product ansatz for quantum chains with open ends is also possible. As an illustration we present the exact solution of an extended XXZ chain with z -magnetic fields at the surface and arbitrary hard-core exclusion among the spins.

The exact solution of the asymmetric exclusion problem with particles of asrbitrary size: matrix product ansatz

Francisco C. Alcaraz, Matheus J. Lazo

The exact solution of the asymmetric exclusion problem and several of its generalizations is obtained by a matrix product ansatz. Due to the similarity of the master equation and the Schrodinger equation at imaginary times the solution of these problems reduces to the diagonalization of a one dimensional quantum Hamiltonian. Initially, we present the solution of the problem when an arbitrary mixture of molecules, each of then having an arbitrary size (s = 0; 1; 2; ...) in units of lattice spacing, diffuses asymmetrically on the lattice. The solution of the more general problem where we have the diffusion of particles belonging to N distinct classes of particles (c = 1; ... ; N), with hierarchical order and arbitrary sizes, is also presented. Our matrix product ansatz asserts that the amplitudes of an arbitrary eigenfunction of the associated quantum Hamiltonian can be expressed by a product of matrices. The algebraic properties of the matrices defining the ansatz depend on the particular associated Hamiltonian. The absence of contradictions in the algebraic relations defining the algebra ensures the exact integrability of the model. In the case of particles distributed in N > 2 classes, the associativity of this algebra implies the Yang-Baxter relations of the exact integrable model.

Does the integrability condition on the boundary parameters of the asymmetric exclusion process contradict the matrix product Ansatz

Boyka Aneva

This paper is due to the question whether with the constraint from the Bethe ansatz solution on the ASEP boundary parameters the matrix product ansazt fails to produce the stationary state. We discuss applicability of the matrix product ansatz from the point of view of the tridiagonal boundary algebra which reveals deep symmetry properties of the ASEP. We argue that the Bethe ansatz integrability constraint is the defining condition for a finite dimensional representation of the boundary algebra when the system reaches a steady state satisfying detailed balance.

Matrix ansatz for the fluctuations of the current in the ASEP with open boundaries

Alexandre Lazarescu

The asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) is one of the most extensively studied models in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The macroscopic particle current produced in its steady state is directly related to the breaking of detailed balance, and is therefore a physical quantity of particular interest. In this paper, we build a matrix product ansatz which allows us to access the exact statistics of the fluctuations of that current for finite sizes, as well as the probabilities of configurations conditioned on the mean current. We also show how this ansatz can be used for the periodic ASEP and how it translates into the language of the XXZ spin chain.
