Eight-Vertex Model in Lattice Statistics and One-Dimensional Anisotropic Heisenberg Chain: I. Some Fundamental Eigenvectors

R. J. Baxter

Published Mar 1, 1990• 1 citation
Publisher

Abstract

Abstract We obtain some simple eigenvectors of the transfer matrix of the zero-field eight-vertex model. These are also eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian of the one-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg chain. We also obtain new equations for the matrix Q ( v ) introduced in earlier papers.

Eight-Vertex Model in Lattice Statistics and One-Dimensional Anisotropic Heisenberg Chain: II. Equivalence to a Generalized Ice-type Lattice Model

R. J. Baxter

Abstract We establish an equivalence between the zero-field eight-vertex model and an Ising model (with four-spin interaction) in which each spin has L possible values, labeled 1, …, L, and two adjacent spins must differ by one (to modulus L). Such an Ising model can also be thought of as a generalized ice-type model and we will later show that the eigenvectors of the transfer matrix can be obtained by a Bethe-type ansatz.

Classical equivalents of one-dimensional quantum-mechanical systems

Mustansir Barma, B. Sriram Shastry

Trotter's formula is used to construct two-dimensional classical systems equivalent to some one-dimensional quantum-mechanical systems of interest. The finite-temperature properties of the completely anisotropic Heisenberg chain are expressed in terms of an eight-vertex model in which the vertex weights depend on the size of the lattice. Knowledge of only the largest eigenvalue of the transfer matrix of the eight-vertex model is not sufficient to find the free energy of the chain except in the limit of zero temperature, when Baxter's result for the ground-state energy is recovered. We also examine two models with two species of variables each, and point out that by constructing the equivalent classical problem the trace over one set of variables can be performed.
