Bose Gas in One Dimension: Lieb–Liniger Model

Abstract

Abstract The coordinate Bethe ansatz can be extended to a model, the Lieb–Liniger model, of a one-dimensional gas of Bosons interacting with repulsive δ-function potentials. It has attracted attention due to its relevance for experimental developments in the fields of ultracold gases and optical lattices. This chapter provides an exposition of the related classical nonlinear Schrödinger equation, followed by its generalization to the quantum model. It explores a limiting case, the Tonks-Girardeau gas. The δ-function potentials supply a kind of boundary condition on the wave functions allowing us to analyze the eigenfunctions of the Bethe ansatz, which are examined on the infinite line and for periodic boundary conditions. The latter leads to the Bethe ansatz equations. The solution of these equations is achieved in the thermodynamic limit for the ground state and for low-lying excited states.

A generalized Lieb–Liniger model

Hagar Veksler, Shmuel Fishman

Abstract In 1963, Lieb and Liniger solved exactly a one-dimensional model of bosons interacting by a repulsive δ -potential and calculated the ground state in the thermodynamic limit. In the present work, we extend this model to a potential of three δ -functions—one of them is repulsive and the other two are attractive—modeling some aspects of the interaction between atoms, and we present an approximate solution for a dilute gas. In this limit, for low energy states, the results are found to be reduced to the ones of an effective Lieb–Liniger model with an effective δ -function of strength c eff and the regime of stability is identified. This may shed light on some aspects of interacting bosons.

The One-dimensional Bose Gas

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

Introduction The one-dimensional Bose gas with point-like interaction of the particles (the quantum variant of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation) is one of the main and most important models which can be Solved by means of the Bethe Ansatz. This model has been thoroughly investigated (and. We shall start with the construction of eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian in a finite volume. Quantities interesting from the physical point of view (in the thermodynamic limit at zero temperature) are considered; the thermodynamics at finite temperatures is investigated in detail as well. A number of essential ideas which will be applied to other models are introduced. The construction of eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian is explained in section 1. Their explicit form and, in particular, the two-particle reducibility, are common features of the models solvable by means of the Bethe Ansatz method. Periodic boundary conditions are imposed on the wave function in section 2; the Bethe equations for the particle' momenta are introduced and analyzed. Taken in the logarithmic form, these equations realize the extremum condition of a certain functional, the corresponding action being called the Yang-Yang action. The transition to the thermodynamic limit is considered in section 3. In that same section the ground state of the gas is constructed. The density of the particle distribution in momentum space and the energy of the ground state are calculated. The method of the transition to the thermodynamic limit described in this section is rather general and may be applied to any model solvable by means of the Bethe Ansatz. In section 4, excitations above the ground state are constructed and their main characteristics (energy, momentum and scattering matrix) are determined by means of the dressing equations. The ground state of the model is the Dirac sea (also called the Fermi sphere).

Thermodynamics of the Repulsive Lieb–Liniger Model

Hans-Peter Eckle

Abstract This chapter discusses how the Bethe ansatz solution of the one-dimensional Bose gas with repulsive δ-function interaction is extended to finite temperatures, the thermody- namic Bethe ansatz. The excitations of this system consist of particle and hole excitations, which can be described by the corresponding densities of Bethe ansatz roots. It shows how these Bethe ansatz root densities are used to define an appropriate expression for the entropy of the system of Bose particles, which is the main ingredient for the extension of the Bethe ansatz method to finite temperature.

A coordinate Bethe ansatz approach to the calculation of equilibrium and nonequilibrium correlations of the one-dimensional Bose gas

Jan C. Zill, Tod M. Wright, Karen V. Kheruntsyan +2 more

We use the coordinate Bethe ansatz to exactly calculate matrix elements between eigenstates of the Lieb–Liniger model of one-dimensional bosons interacting via a two-body delta-potential. We investigate the static correlation functions of the zero-temperature ground state and their dependence on interaction strength, and analyze the effects of system size in the crossover from few-body to mesoscopic regimes for up to seven particles. We also obtain time-dependent nonequilibrium correlation functions for five particles following quenches of the interaction strength from two distinct initial states. One quench is from the noninteracting ground state and the other from a correlated ground state near the strongly interacting Tonks–Girardeau regime. The final interaction strength and conserved energy are chosen to be the same for both quenches. The integrability of the model highly constrains its dynamics, and we demonstrate that the time-averaged correlation functions following quenches from these two distinct initial conditions are both nonthermal and moreover distinct from one another.

Analytic thermodynamic properties of the Lieb-Liniger gas

Matthew L. Kerr, Giulia De Rosi, Karen V. Kheruntsyan

We present a comprehensive review on the state-of-the-art of the approximate analytic approaches describing the finite-temperature thermodynamic quantities of the Lieb-Liniger model of the one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas with contact repulsive interactions. This paradigmatic model of quantum many-body-theory plays an important role in many areas of physics-thanks to its integrability and possible experimental realization using, e.g., ensembles of ultracold bosonic atoms confined to quasi-1D geometries. The thermodynamics of the uniform Lieb-Liniger gas can be obtained numerically using the exact thermal Bethe ansatz (TBA) method, first derived in 1969 by Yang and Yang. However, the TBA numerical calculations do not allow for the in-depth understanding of the underlying physical mechanisms that govern the thermodynamic behavior of the Lieb-Liniger gas at finite temperature. Our work is then motivated by the insights that emerge naturally from the transparency of closed-form analytic results, which are derived here in six different regimes of the gas and which exhibit an excellent agreement with the TBA numerics. Our findings can be further adopted for characterising the equilibrium properties of inhomogeneous (e.g., harmonically trapped) 1D Bose gases within the local density approximation and for the development of improved hydrodynamic theories, allowing for the calculation of breathing mode frequencies which depend on the underlying thermodynamic equation of state. Our analytic approaches can be applied to other systems including impurities in a quantum bath, liquid helium-4, and ultracold Bose gas mixtures.

Fermi-Bose mapping for one-dimensional Bose gases

Vyacheslav I. Yukalov, Marvin D. Girardeau

One-dimensional Bose gases are considered, interacting either through the hard-core potentials or through the contact delta potentials. Interest in these gases gained momentum because of the recent experimental realization of quasi-one-dimensional Bose gases in traps with tightly confined radial motion, achieving the Tonks-Girardeau (TG) regime of strongly interacting atoms. For such gases the Fermi-Bose mapping of wavefunctions is applicable. The aim of the present communication is to give a brief survey of the problem and to demonstrate the generality of this mapping by emphasizing that: (i) It is valid for nonequilibrium wavefunctions, described by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, not merely for stationary wavefunctions. (ii) It gives the whole spectrum of all excited states, not merely the ground state. (iii) It applies to the Lieb-Liniger gas with the contact interaction, not merely to the TG gas of impenetrable bosons.
