Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the construction of integrable BCS models in the framework of the quantum inverse scattering method. Specifically, the reduced BCS model, which is based on the su(2) algebra, a model of two coupled BCS systems, based on the su(4) algebra and an extended pairing model associated to the u(2|2) symmetry are presented.

Integrability and exact solution for coupled BCS systems associated with the su(4) Lie algebra

Guan, Xi-Wen, Angela Foerster, Jon Links +1 more

We introduce an integrable model for two coupled BCS systems through a solution of the Yang–Baxter equation associated with the Lie algebra su(4). By employing the algebraic Bethe ansatz, we determine the exact solution for the energy spectrum. An asymptotic analysis is conducted to determine the leading terms in the ground state energy, the gap and some one point correlation functions at zero temperature.

The algebraic approach to the Hubbard model

Fabian H. L. Eßler, Holger Frahm, Frank Göhmann +2 more

Introduction to the quantum inverse scattering method The quantum inverse scattering method is the modern algebraic theory of exactly solvable quantum systems. It arose [404, 410, 411] as an attempt to carry over the concepts of the inverse scattering method for classical non-linear evolution equations [2, 134] into quantum mechanics. As a result, our understanding of both the theory of integrable partial differential equations and the theory of exactly solvable quantum systems changed, and the algebraic roots of the exact solvability became apparent. These roots originate from the Yang-Baxter equation and its classical counterpart. Before turning to our actual subject, which is the application of the quantum inverse scattering method to the Hubbard model, we give a brief general introduction. We shall limit our exposition basically to the material which is needed later for the understanding of the algebraic structure of the Hubbard model. The reader who is interested in the general scope of the method and in the history of its development is referred to the excellent books and review articles [131, 270, 276, 277, 407]. Integrability As a motivation for the definition of the Yang-Baxter algebra in the following subsection we shall first recall the concept of integrability in classical mechanics. Then, by considering the elementary example of the harmonic oscillator, we shall see that this concept does not directly apply to quantum mechanical systems and needs to be extended.

Superconducting correlations in metallic nanoparticles: Exact solution of the BCS model by the algebraic Bethe ansatz

Huan-Qiang Zhou, Jon Links, Ross H. McKenzie +1 more

Superconducting pairing of electrons in nanoscale metallic particles with discrete energy levels and a fixed number of electrons is described by the reduced Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer model Hamiltonian. We show that this model is integrable by the algebraic Bethe ansatz. The eigenstates, spectrum, conserved operators, integrals of motion, and norms of wave functions are obtained. Furthermore, the quantum inverse problem is solved, meaning that form factors and correlation functions can be explicitly evaluated. Closed form expressions are given for the form factors and correlation functions that describe superconducting pairing.

BETHE ANSATZ FOR NON-COMPACT GROUPS: THE PAIRING MODELS FOR BOSONS

А. А. Овчинников

We discuss the construction of the exactly solvable pairing models for bosons in the framework of the Quantum Inverse Scattering method. It is stressed that this class of models naturally appears in the quasiclassical limit of the algebraic Bethe ansatz transfer matrix. We propose the new pairing Hamiltonians for bosons, depending on the additional parameters. It is pointed out that the new class of the pairing models can be obtained from the fundamental transfer-matrix. The possible new application of the pairing models for confined bosons in the physics of helium nanodroplets is pointed out.
