Abstract

Presented is a new approach to the study of one dimensional quantum spin systems at finite temperature. The approach is based upon a general structure of solvable models; the Yang-Baxter equation and the Bethe ansatz equation, and in addition the evaluation of finite size corrections. Provided that the ground state is constructed by the Bethe ansatz method, exact low temperature expansions of physical quantities are given without further assumption.

EXACTLY SOLVABLE MODELS AND FINITE SIZE CORRECTIONS

Junji Suzuki, Taro Nagao, Miki Wadati

Recent developments in the theory of exactly solvable models are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to the finite size corrections to the Bethe ansatz equations. Baxter’s formula which relates a 2-dimensional statistical model with a 1-dimensional spin model is extended into the finite temperature case. A combination of this extension and the theory of finite size corrections gives a systematic method to evaluate low temperature expansions of physical quantities. Applications of the method to 1-dimensional quantum spin models are discussed. Throughout this paper, the usefulness of the soliton theory should be observed.

New Approach to Thermal Bethe Ansatz

C. Destri, Hector J. de Vega

We present a new approach to the calculation of thermodynamic functions for crossing-invariant models solvable by Bethe Ansatz. In the case of the XXZ Heisemberg chain we derive, for arbitrary values of the anysotropy, a {\bf single} non--linear integral equation from which the free energy can be exactly calculated. The high--temperature expansion follows in a sistematic and relatively simple way. For low temperatures we obtain the correct central charge and predict the analytic structure of the full expansion around $T=0$. Furthermore, we derive a single non-linear integral equation describing the finite--size ground--state energy of the Sine--Gordon quantum field theory. PACS: 05.30, 03.70. 75.10.5

Bethe ansatz solvable multi-chain quantum systems

Andrei A. Zvyagin

In this article we review recent developments in the one-dimensional Bethe ansatz solvable multi-chain quantum models. The algebraic version of the Bethe ansatz (the quantum inverse scattering method) permits us to construct new families of integrable Hamiltonians using simple generalizations of the well known constructions of the single-chain model. First we consider the easiest example (`basic' model) of this class of models: the antiferromagnetic two-chain spin-1/2 model with the nearest-neighbour and next-nearest-neighbour spin-frustrating interactions (zigzag chain). We show how the algebra of the quantum inverse scattering method works for this model, and what are the important features of the Hamiltonian (which reveal the topological properties of two dimensions together with the one-dimensional properties). We consider the solution of the Bethe ansatz for the ground state (in particular, commensurate-incommensurate quantum phase transitions present due to competing spin-frustrating interactions are discussed) and construct the thermal Bethe ansatz (in the form of the `quantum transfer matrix') for this model. Then possible generalizations of the basic model are considered: an inclusion of a magnetic anisotropy, higher-spin representations (including the important case of a quantum ferrimagnet), the multi-chain case, internal degrees of freedom of particles at each site, etc. We observe the similarities and differences between this class of models and related exactly solvable models: other groups of multi-chain lattice models, quantum field theory models and magnetic impurity (Kondo-like) models. Finally, the behaviour of non-integrable (less constrained) multi-chain quantum models is discussed.

Correlation Length for the XXZ Spin Chain at Finite Temperature

Hideyuki Mizuta, Taro Nagao, Miki Wadati

Baxter's formula is extended to treat the thermodynamic properties of quantum spin chains. As an application of such formulation which we call finite temperature Baxter's formula, the XXZ Heisenberg spin chain is investigated. Combination of the formula and the finite size expansion provides a systematic method to evaluate low-temperature expansions of the thermodynamic quantities. The correlation length for the XXX spin chain is explicitly evaluated.

Simple Approach to Thermal Bethe Ansatz

Hector J. de Vega

We report on a new approach to the calculation of thermodynamic functions for crossing-invariant models solvable by Bethe Ansatz. In the case of the XXZ Heisenberg chain we derive, for arbitrary values of the anysotropy, a single non-linear integral equation from which the free energy can be exactly calculated.These equations are shown to be equivalent to an infinite set of algebraic equations of Bethe type which provide alternatively the thermodinamics. The high-temperature expansion follows in a sistematic and relatively simple way from our non-linear integral equations. For low temperatures we obtain the correct central charge and predict the analytic structure of the full expansion around T=0. Furthermore, we derive a single non-linear integral equation describing the finite-size ground-state energy of the Sine-Gordon quantum field theory.

Finite Heisenberg Quantum Spin Chain

Hans-Peter Eckle

Abstract The Bethe ansatz genuinely considers a finite system. The extraction of finite-size results from the Bethe ansatz equations is of genuine interest, especially against the background of the results of finite-size scaling and conformal symmetry in finite geometries. The mathematical techniques introduced in chapter 19 permit a systematic treatment in this chapter of finite-size corrections as corrections to the thermodynamic limit of the system. The application of the Euler-Maclaurin formula transforming finite sums into integrals and finite-size corrections transforms the Bethe ansatz equations into Wiener–Hopf integral equations with inhomogeneities representing the finite-size corrections solvable using the Wiener–Hopf technique. The results can be compared to results for finite systems obtained from other approaches that are independent of the Bethe ansatz method. It briefly discusses higher-order corrections and offers a general assessment of the finite-size method.
