In the first paper of this series it was found that the
η-spin 1/2 holons, spin 1/2 spinons, and
c pseudoparticles whose occupancy configurations describe the energy eigenstates of the one-dimensional Hubbard model emerge from the electron - rotated-electron unitary transformation. In this second paper we discuss and clarify how the relation of the electrons to the above objects can be used in a program for evaluation of finite-energy few-electron spectral functions. As a first step, here we characterize the dominant holon and spinon microscopic physical processes that originate more than 99% of the few-electron spectral weight. These dominant processes are related to exact selection rules for the values of the number of holons and spinons generated or annihilated by application onto a ground state of rotated-electron operators. We also generalize the concepts of a lower Hubbard band and upper Hubbard bands to all values of on-site Coulombian repulsion.
In this paper we describe the pseudoparticles, holons, and spinons whose occupancy configurations describe the energy eigenstates of the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model in terms of rotated electrons. Rotated electrons are related to electrons by a mere unitary transformation such that rotated electron double occupation is a good quantum number. Moreover, we introduce the concepts of local pseudoparticle and effective pseudoparticle lattice. Our findings provide useful information about the relation of the exotic pseudoparticles, holons, and spinons that diagonalize the non-perturbative many-electron problem to the original electrons. We provide an example showing how the derived local pseudoparticle representation can be used in the evaluation of finite-energy few-electron spectral function expressions.
In this paper we find that in the thermodynamic limit and for the the ground-state normal-ordered 1D Hubbard model the wave function of the excited energy eigenstates which span the Hilbert subspace where the finite-number-electron excitations are contained factorizes for all values of the on-site Coulombian repulsion U. This factorization results from the absence of residual energy interactions for the pseudofermions whose occupancy configurations describe these states. Our study includes the introduction of the pseudoparticle - pseudofermion unitary transformation and of an operator algebra for both the pseudoparticles and the pseudofermions. As the corresponding pseudoparticles, the
cν pseudofermions (and
sν pseudofermions) are
η-spin zero
2ν-holon composite quantum objects (and spin zero
2ν-spinon composite quantum objects) where
ν=1,2,.... The pseudofermion description is the most suitable for the study of the finite-energy spectral properties.
