Kinematics of the Heisenberg chain and irreducible bases of the Weyl duality

Abstract

Quantum kinematics of the linear Heisenberg ring, consisting of N crystal nodes, each with spin s, is presented in terms of the Weyl duality between actions of the symmetric and unitary groups in the space of quantum states of the magnet. This space is spanned on magnetic configurations which gives rise to an application of the combinatorial Robinson–Schensted–Knuth algorithm for a unique classification of irreducible basis of the duality of Weyl in terms of a pair of tableaux: a standard Young tableau in the alphabet of nodes, accompanied by a semistandard Weyl tableau in the alphabet of spins. Similarities and distinctions between various group-theoretic and combinatorial objects are discussed within the context of the magnetic interpretation. In particular, the role of the spectrum of Jucys–Murphy operators in the clasification and construction of magnetic eigenstates corresponding to Young tableaux is illustrated.

A complete set of commuting operators for the Bethe ansatz

Tadeusz Lulek, S. Topolewicz

We have derived an explicit formula for a complete set of commuting operators for the XXX model of the Heisenberg magnetic ring, using an algebraic Bethe ansatz approach of Faddeev and Takhtajan. Each operator turns out to be the sum of increasing l -cycles in the symmetric group acting on the set of nodes of the ring. It is demonstrated that the resulting algebra of operators encloses the total spin S , the Hamiltonian and the quasimomentum. We point out that it is a maximal Abelian subalgebra in the algebra of the symmetric group, associated with the basis of exact Bethe ansatz eigenstates, the latter classified by rigged string configurations of Kerrov, Kirillov and Reshetikhin. This algebra is also conjugated to the Jucys–Murphy algebra, responsible for the Young orthogonal basis of standard tableaux along the Schur–Weyl duality.

A combinatoric description of Bethe Ansatz solutions for nanoscopic systems

Tadeusz Lulek

Abstract Bethe Ansatz provides an exact classification of eigenstates of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian for a finite magnetic ring, consisting of N nodes, each with the spin s = ½ (with some extensions to an arbitrary spin s) in terms of rigged string configurations. The latter are some combinatorial objects which serve as classification labels for solutions of Bethe equations. An astonishing feature is existence of Robinson–Schensted (RS) and Kerov–Kirillov–Reshetikhin (KKR) bijections between sets of (i) all magnetic configurations, (ii) all pairs of standard Young and Weyl tableaux of N boxes and n = 2s + 1 rows, (iii) all rigged string configurations, for given N and s. These bijections allow to point out an exact correspondence between physically admissible solutions of highly nonlinear Bethe Ansatz equations and the initial basis of quantum calculations – magnetic configurations which are just possible distributions of spins over the nodes.

Linear extension of the Robinson–Schensted algorithm

Paweł Jakubczyk, Barbara Lulek

Abstract The Robinson–Schensted (RS) algorithm demonstrates a bijection between the set of magnetic configurations f and the set of pairs of tableaux: a semistandard Weyl tableau P(f) accompanied by a standard Young tableau Q(f). We show that it is not only a bijection between sets, but it can be extended to a linear unitary transformation within the space of all quantum states of the magnet.

Combinatorial approach to the representation of the Schur-Weyl duality in one-dimensional spin systems

Dorota Jakubczyk, Paweł Jakubczyk

We propose combinatorial approach to the representation of Schur-Weyl duality in physical systems on the example of one-dimensional spin chains. Exploiting the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm, we perform decomposition of the dual group representations into irreducible representations in a fully combinatorial way. As representation space, we choose the Hilbert space of the spin chains, but this approach can be easily generalized to an arbitrary physical system where the Schur-Weyl duality works.

Kinematics of the one-dimensional finite Heisenberg magnet with impurities

Barbara Lulek

The kinematics of the one-dimensional finite Heisenberg magnetic ring with impurities is discussed in the light of the general recipe of Weyl (1952). The cyclic group generating the ring, and the group of all its automorphisms, play the roles of the obvious and hidden symmetry respectively. The hidden symmetry group imposes a property of the distribution of quantum states of a translationally invariant ensemble of magnets over the finite Brillouin zone. Inhomogeneities of the distribution arise from irregular orbits of the action of the cyclic group on the set of all magnetic configurations of the ensemble. Size-dependent effects, like rarefied bands, are classified using the arithmetic structure of integers, (prime numbers, socles and arithmetic exponents), which is more appropriate than the linear order in the ring of integers.

The role of Robinson-Schensted and Kerov-Kirillov-Reshetikhin bijections in Bethe ansatz

Dorota Jakubczyk, Tadeusz Lulek, Paweł Jakubczyk +1 more

The Robinson-Schensted and Kerov-Kirillov-Reshetikhin (RSKKR) bijections allow us to confirm the completeness of solutions of the eigenproblem of the one-dimensional Heisenberg Hamiltonian in a purely combinatorial manner, by studying the structure of the classical configuration space of the system. The combined bijection relates two sets, namely the basis of magnetic configurations and the set of combinatorial objects called rigged string configurations. The former serve as the initial basis for quantum computations, whereas the latter classify the exact Bethe Ansatz (BA) eigenstates. We discuss in this report the application of this bijection in the procedure of construction of two-particle states within Clebsch-Gordan scheme. This bijection provides the irreducible bases for the decomposition of the tensor product of transitive representations R ( Σ N :(Σ N-1 × Σ 1 ) within the scheme of a Hopf algebra of symmetric groups. We point out the role of true physical BA eigenstates, as well as fictituous configurations corresponding to doubly occupied sites (the diagonal of the cartesian square of the one-magnon classical configuration space) and to antisymmetric states.
