One-Dimensional Heisenberg Model at Finite Temperature
Minoru Takahashi
Abstract
A set of integral equations which describes the thermodynamic properties of one-dimensional Heisenberg model is obtained. From these equations one can calculate the energy, entropy and magnetization of the system at given temperature and magnetic field. We have succeeded in reproducing the known exact results in the limiting cases of zero temperature, infinite temperature and infinite magnetic field.
