Exact solutions to anisotropic SU(N⩾3) chains

Abstract

Exact eigenfunctions for anisotropic SU(N) chains are obtained for the fundamental representations N and N using a Bethe ansatz. For three anisotropies λ=0,±1 eigenfunctions of all possible symmetry types are obtained, otherwise only the completely symmetric and antisymmetric representations are found. It is shown that special and limiting cases of the model include the nonlinear Schrodinger model, the spin-1/2 XXZ model and Uimin's (1970) spin-1 exchange Hamiltonian.

The nonlinear Schrodinger model as a special continuum limit of the anisotropic Heisenberg model

B Golzer, Arno Holz

One-dimensional spin chains are investigated by constructing a mapping of the anisotropic Heisenberg model in the limit Delta to 1 onto the non-linear Schrodinger model (a gas of bosons with delta function interactions). Three applications of this mapping are given. First it is shown that the Bethe ansatz solutions of the anisotropic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model go over to the continuous Bethe ansatz solutions of the non-linear Schrodinger model. Then bound-state energies for arbitrary spin are calculated and as a third application a nearly identical mapping of the anisotropic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model in the limit Delta to 0 onto a non-linear Schrodinger model for fermion fields is given. Finally the authors construct an anisotropic SU(N) model. The continuum limit of this model is shown to be the (N-1)-component non-linear Schrodinger model, which can be solved by means of the nested Bethe ansatz.

Exact solution of a quantum spin chain with competing bulk and boundary terms

Yusong Cao, Jian Wang, Yi Qiao +2 more

Abstract We obtain the exact solution of an anisotropic quantum spin chain including nearest neighbor (NN), next nearest neighbor (NNN), chiral three-spin interactions and non-diagonal boundary terms. Because the NNN couplings are involved, we find that the off-diagonal boundary reflections can not only induce the anisotropic Dzyloshinsky–Moriya interactions at boundaries but also enhance the anisotropy of first and last bonds. These properties are absent if only the NN spin-exchanging interactions are considered. Due to that the U (1) symmetry is broken, we analytically solve the system by using the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz. The inhomogeneous T − Q relation, energy spectrum and associated Bethe ansatz equations are given explicitly. This paper provides an universal scheme to construct new integrable models with certain interesting interactions.

Bulk and Boundary S Matrices for the SU(N) Chain

Anastasia Doikou, Nepomechie, R I

We consider both closed and open integrable antiferromagnetic chains constructed with the SU(N)-invariant R matrix. For the closed chain, we extend the analyses of Sutherland and Kulish-Reshetikhin by considering also complex ``string'' solutions of the Bethe Ansatz equations. Such solutions are essential to describe general multiparticle excited states. We also explicitly determine the SU(N) quantum numbers of the states. In particular, the model has particle-like excitations in the fundamental representations [k] of SU(N), with k = 1, ..., N-1. We directly compute the complete two-particle S matrices for the cases [1] X [1] and [1] X [N-1]. For the open chain with diagonal boundary fields, we show that the transfer matrix has the symmetry SU(l) X SU(N-l) X U(1), as well as a new ``duality'' symmetry which interchanges l and N - l. With the help of these symmetries, we compute by means of the Bethe Ansatz for particles of types [1] and [N-1] the corresponding boundary S matrices.

Bulk and boundary S-matrices for the SU(N) chain

Anastasia Doikou, Rafael I. Nepomechie

We consider both closed and open integrable antiferromagnetic chains constructed with the SU(N)-invariant R-matrix. For the closed chain, we extend the analyses of Sutherland and Kulish — Reshetikhin by considering also complex “string” solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations. Such solutions are essential to describe general multiparticle excited states. We also explicitly determine the SU(N) quantum numbers of the states. In particular, the model has particle-like excitations in the fundamental representations [k] of SU(N), with k = 1, …, N − 1. We directly compute the complete two-particle S-matrices for the cases [1] ⊗ [1] and [1] ⊗ [N − 1 ]. For the open chain with diagonal boundary fields, we show that the transfer matrix has the symmetry SU(l) × SU(N−l) × U(1), as well as a new “duality” symmetry which maps l→N−l. With the help of these symmetries, we compute by means of the Bethe ansatz for particles of types [1] and [N − 1 ] the corresponding boundary S-matrices.

Anisotropic spin chain: Heisenberg’s xxz model for 4 inverted spins

А.М. Калиев

we study the numerical solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations for the inhomogeneous anisotropic XXZ Heisenberg model with a finite number of spins, with four inverted spins.Having determined the phases of the wave functions and using N-periodicity, we obtained numerical solutions for the system of Bethe equations of the anisotropic antiferromagnetic XXZ Heisenberg model.Using algebraic Bethe ansatz, various pulse and energy configurations for these states were given.

Ground state of the quantum symmetric finite-size XXZ spin chain with anisotropy parameter Delta = ½

V Fridkin, Yu Stroganov, D Zagier

We find an analytic solution of the Bethe Ansatz equations for the special case of a finite XXZ spin chain with free boundary conditions and with a complex surface field which provides for U q ( sl (2)) symmetry of the Hamiltonian. More precisely, we find one nontrivial solution, corresponding to the ground state of the system with anisotropy parameter = ½ corresponding to q 3 = -1.
