Abstract

It is shown that a k -state IRF model (σ=0, 1, ···, k -1), with a condition k -2≦σ i +σ j ≦ k on adjacent spins σ i and σ j , is exactly solvable for all k ( k ≧3). This proves the existence of a new hierarchy of solvable IRF models. It is also shown that the k -state IRF model is equivalent to a 3 k -state solid on solid (SOS) model. Considering all the known results, it is predicted that for an arbitrary set of integers L and f ( L ≦0, f ≦1) there exists a solvable IRF model with the hard core condition L ≧σ i +σ j ≦ L + f .

Exactly Solvable IRF Models. III. A New Hierarchy of Solvable Models

Yasuhiro Akutsu, Atsuo Kuniba, Miki Wadati

An infinite series of exactly solvable multi-state IRF models is constructed. Each model in the new hierarchy is the special S 2 -generalization, proposed in the previous paper II, of the corresponding model in the `eight-vertex SOS' hierarchy. The Boltzmann weights and their parametrizations are given with a detailed proof that they satisfy the star-triangle equation.

Exactly Solvable IRF Models. II.SN-Generalizations

Yasuhiro Akutsu, Atsuo Kuniba, Miki Wadati

Multi-state generalization, which is applicable to arbitrary IRF model, is presented. The generalization is made in such a way that each spin is replaced by an S N -symmetric multiplet. If the original IRF model is exactly solvable satisfying the star-triangle equation, so is the generalized one. A simple symmetry-breaking procedure is also presented. In the special case N =2, another kind of generalization is proposed and an exactly solvable 4-state model with S 2 -symmetry between the highest spins is newly constructed.

Inhomogeneous Eight-Vertex SOS Model and Solvable IRF Hierarchies

Yasuhiro Akutsu, Atsuo Kuniba, Miki Wadati

It is shown that an exactly solvable inhomogeneous eight-vertex SOS (8VSOS) model ( Z -invariant 8VSOS model) reproduces most of the konwn hierarchies of solvable IRF spin models. It is also shown that the Z -invariance gives a simple explanation for the coincidence found by Baxter and Andrews between the expressions of the local spin densities for the two different hierarchies of the IRF models, the Gordon-Generalization hierarchy and the Andrews-Baxter-Forrester hierarchy.

The Gordon-Generalization Hierarchy of Exactly Solvable IRF Models

Atsuo Kuniba, Yasuhiro Akutsu, Miki Wadati

For any k -state model among the Gordon-Generalization (GG) hierarchy (J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 55 (1986) 1092 and 2166), a systematic procedure to obtain the parametrized Boltzmann weights is presented. An exact expression for the free energy of the general k -state model in the GG hierarchy is explicitly given. The procedure is successfully applied to determine the parametrization for the 5-state model in the GG hierarchy. It is concluded that each k -state model in the GG hierarchy is exactly solvable.

Stevens operator class of exactly solvable one-dimensional spin models

Andrei A. Zvyagin, Victor V. Slavin

The new class of exactly solvable models of one-dimensional spin chains is found. Interactions of spins with crystalline electric fields (CEF) and spin-spin coupling between neighboring sites are taken into account for those models. Spin-spin coupling includes higher-order spin operators (the Stevens operators) and describes the interaction between z th components of the spins. We show that essential parts of the Hamiltonians of these models can be written in terms of exactly solvable transverse field Ising model (TFIM), in which certain combinations of the parameters of spin-spin interactions play the role of the TFIM exchange constant, and components of the CEFs play the role of external transverse magnetic field of the TFIM. The obtained results are valid for any values of spin (or total moments for rare-earth ions) and for the wide class of CEFs. The requirement for the exact solvability is that the space of single spin states should be split by the CEF into the subspaces with dimensions ≤ 2 (i.e., the only singlets and doublets are allowed). Cases of integer and half-integer spins are considered. For finite-size chains with integer spins and open ends we show numerically that energy spectra always contain the states whose energies do not depend on the CEF (the magnetic field for the TFIM). The energies (per spin) of these states decay as L − 1 , where L is the chain length. This behavior qualitatively distinguishes these states from known Majorana edge states and strong zero modes, where the energy decreases exponentially in L .

Exactly Solvable Models in Arbitrary Dimensions

Ghosh, R K, Rao, S

We construct a new class of quasi-exactly solvable many-body Hamiltonians in arbitrary dimensions, whose ground states can have any correlations we choose. Some of the known correlations in one dimension and some recent novel correlations in two and higher dimensions are reproduced as special cases. As specific interesting examples, we also write down some new models in two and higher dimensions with novel correlations.
