Abstract

We present a simple approximation scheme for the solution of the integral equations resulting from the Bethe-ansatz diagonalization of the one-dimensional Fermi gas with \ensuremath{\delta}-function attraction. These equations arise for the Hubbard model with attractive interaction in the limit of weak coupling and low density. We obtain the ground-state energy as a function of coupling and density in very good agreement with numerical solutions, as well as a value for the parameter determining the gap in the magnetic excitation spectrum which strongly supports a conjecture of Larkin and Sak.

Evaluation of the BCS approximation for the attractive Hubbard model in one dimension

F. Marsiglio

The ground-state energy and energy gap to the first excited state are calculated for the attractive Hubbard model in one dimension using both the Bethe ansatz equations and the variational BCS wave function. Comparisons are provided as a function of coupling strength and electron density. While the ground-state energies are always in very good agreement, the BCS energy gap is sometimes incorrect by an order of magnitude, particularly at half-filling. Finite-size effects are also briefly discussed for cases where an exact solution in the thermodynamic limit is not possible. In general, the BCS result for the energy gap is poor compared to the exact result.

One-dimensional δ-function attractive Fermi gas in an external magnetic field

Miki Wadati, T. Iida

We investigate the ground-state properties of a one-dimensional spin-1/2 fermionic atoms interacting through the attractive δ-function potential in an external magnetic field. By the thermal Bethe ansatz method, the integral equations for the dressed energies are formulated. Those integral equations at zero-temperature are solved in the power series forms of rapidity and momentum for both strong and weak coupling cases. The magnetization as a function of the coupling constant and the external field is also obtained explicitly. Based on the analytic results, quantum phase transitions are identified among three phases, an unpolarized fully paired state, a fully polarized normal ferromagnetic state and a mixed state of paired and unpaired atoms.

Bethe Ansatz Solutions and Excitation Gap of the Attractive Bose-Hubbard Model

Deok Sun Lee, Doo Chul Kim

The energy gap between the ground state and the first excited state of the one-dimensional attractive Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian is investigated in connection with directed polymers in random media. The excitation gap Δis obtained by exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian in the two- and three-particle sectors and also by an exact Bethe Ansatz solution in the two-particle sector. The dynamic exponent z is found to be 2. However, in the intermediate range of the size L where UL~O(1), U being the attractive interaction, the effective dynamic exponent shows an anomalous peak reaching high values of 2.4 and 2.7 for the two- and the three-particle sectors, respectively. The anomalous behavior is related to a change in the sign of the first excited-state energy. In the two-particle sector, we use the Bethe Ansatz solution to obtain the effective dynamic exponent as a function of the scaling variable UL/π. The continuum version, the attractive delta-function Bose-gas Hamiltonian, is integrable by the Bethe Ansatz with suitable quantum numbers, the distributions of which are not known in general. Quantum numbers are proposed for the first excited state and are confirmed numerically for an arbitrary number of particles.

Exact Analysis of a δ-Function Spin-1/2 Attractive Fermi Gas with an External Magnetic Field

Toshiaki Iida, Miki Wadati

We study the excitation spectrum of a one-dimensional δ-function attractive spin-1/2 fermions by the thermal Bethe ansatz method at zero temperature. The integral equation for the dressed energies of the system with an external magmatic field is solved in the form of power series. The first few terms of the asymptotic expansions for both strong and weak coupling cases are calculated analytically. We also study the magnetization as a function of the coupling constant and the external field.

Exact analysis of a δ-function spin-1/2 attractive Fermi gas with arbitrary polarization

Toshiaki Iida, Miki Wadati

The ground state of a one-dimensional δ-function attractive spin-1/2 fermions is studied by the nested Bethe ansatz method. Explicitly, the Gaudin integral equation for the system is solved in the form of power series with arbitrary spin polarization. The first few terms of the asymptotic expansions for both strong and weak coupling cases are calculated analytically. The physical quantities, such as the ground state energy and the chemical potentials, are expressed in terms of the dimensionless coupling constant and the polarization , where c is the coupling constant and are the number densities of the spin-up (down) particles. While in the limiting case P = 1, the system consists of spinless free fermions, the other limit P = 0 describes the BCS–BEC crossover in one dimension. As a function of P , the evolution is continuous and smooth.

Ground-state and elemental excitations of the one-dimensional multicomponent Fermi gas with delta -function interaction

P. Schlottmann

We consider a gas of fermions with parabolic dispersion and N spin components (or spin S, N=2S+1) with SU(N) symmetry in one dimension interacting via a delta -function potential. The model is integrable and its solution has been obtained by Sutherland in terms of N nested Bethe ansatze. The ground-state Bethe ansatz integral equations are solved numerically for both repulsive and attractive interactions to obtain the energy, the chemical potential, and the magnetic susceptibility as a function of the band filling and the interaction strength. For the repulsive interaction the Fermi gas has the properties of a Luttinger liquid. In the attractive case, on the other hand, the fermions in the ground-state form bound states of up to N fermions of different spin components. The spectrum of elemental charge and spin excitations is derived for the repulsive and attractive situations. The spectrum is discussed in the limits of vanishing interaction strength and very strong coupling. For the repulsive interaction the low-lying charge excitations can be characterized by the Fermi momentum and the Fermi velocity. The range of the spin-wave excitations is correlated with the Fermi momentum of the charges. The spin wave velocity is inversely proportional to the magnetic susceptibility. The spin-wave excitations become soft in the infinite-repulsive-coupling limit. In the attractive case in zero field all excitation branches except that of bound states of N fermions have an energy gap. It requires a finite energy to break these bound states and hence there is no response to a field smaller than a critical field. The low-T specific heat is proportional to the temperature.
