Massive particles in the relativistic limit of the non-half-filled 1D attractive Hubbard model
Ferenc Woynarovich
Abstract
The continuum limit of the Bethe ansatz solution for an attractive Hubbard chain is considered in which the particle number per site n is kept finite (0<n<1). It is shown that by adjusting the hopping t, the Hubbard U and the lattice constant a in a proper way the excitations connected to unbound electrons will be relativistic with a finite mass. The higher level Bethe ansatz equations for these particles are given. The spectrum and the phase shifts of these particles show close analogy to those of the massive particles of the SU(2) chiral invariant Gross - Neveu model.
