Complete solution of theXXZmodel on finite rings: Finite-temperature structure factors
K. Fabricius, U. Löw, K.-H. Mütter
Abstract
The transverse and longitudinal structure factors of the spin-1/2 XXZ model are determined from a complete diagonalization of the Hamiltonian on rings with N=4,...,16 sites. At fixed critical momentum p=\ensuremath{\pi}, we observe the critical low-temperature behavior as it is predicted by scaling arguments. Finite-size scaling works well for the transverse structure factors. However, it breaks down for the longitudinal structure factors if the anisotropy is too large (\ensuremath{\gamma}>0.3\ensuremath{\pi}). We also investigate the low-temperature behavior of the uniform susceptibility.
