Existence of Solutions to the Bethe Ansatz Equations for the 1D Hubbard Model: Finite Lattice and Thermodynamic Limit

Pedro S. Goldbaum

Published Jan 1, 2005• 5 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Abstract. In this work, we present a proof of the existence of real and ordered solutions to the generalized Bethe Ansatz equations for the one dimensional Hubbard model on a finite lattice, with periodic boundary conditions. The existence of a continuous set of solutions extending from any U> 0 to U = ∞ is also shown. This continuity property, when combined with the proof that the wavefunction obtained with the generalized Bethe Ansatz is normalizable, is relevant to the question of whether or not the solution gives us the ground state of the finite system, as suggested by Lieb and Wu. Lastly, for the absolute ground state at half-filling, we show that the solution converges to a distribution in the thermodynamic limit. This limit distribution satisfies the integral equations that led to the well known solution of the 1D Hubbard model. PACS numbers: 71.10.Fd, 71.10.Hf, 71.30.+h. 1.

Existence of Solutions to the Bethe Ansatz Equations for the 1D Hubbard Model on a Finite Lattice

Pedro S. Goldbaum

In this work, we present a proof of the existence of real and ordered solutions to the generalized Bethe Ansatz equations for the one dimensional Hubbard model on a finite lattice, with periodic boundary conditions. The existence of a continuous set of solutions extending from any positive U to the limit of large interaction is also shown. This continuity property, when combined with the proof that the wavefunction obtained with the generalized Bethe Ansatz is normalizable, is relevant to the question of whether or not the solution gives us the ground state of the finite system, as suggested by Lieb and Wu. Lastly, for the absolute ground state at half-filling, we show that the solution converges to a distribution in the thermodynamic limit. This limit distribution satisfies the integral equations that led to the well known solution of the 1D Hubbard model.

Exact results for strongly correlated fermions: Hubbard and Falicov-Kimball models

Pedro S. Goldbaum

In this work, we study two models of strongly correlated fermions: Hubbard and FalicovKimball. We present a proof of the existence of real and ordered solutions to the nested Bethe Ansatz equations for the one dimensional Hubbard model on a finite lattice, with periodic boundary conditions. The existence of a continuous set of solutions extending from any U > 0 to U = ∞ is also shown, where U is the strength of the interaction between fermions at the same site. We use this continuity property, combined with the proof that the norm of the wavefunction obtained with the generalized Bethe Ansatz is not zero, to prove that the solution gives us the ground state of the finite system, as assumed by Lieb and Wu. For the absolute ground state at half-filling, we show that the solution converges to a distribution in the thermodynamic limit. This limit distribution satisfies the integral equations that led to the Lieb-Wu solution of the 1D Hubbard model. We also obtain a lower bound for the ground state energy of the Falicov-Kimball model. This bound is given by a bulk term, plus a term proportional to the boundary. A numerical value for the coefficient of the boundary term is determined. The explicit derivation is important in the proof of the conjecture of segregation of the two kinds of fermions in the Falicov-Kimball model, for sufficiently large interactions.

The Bethe ansatz solution

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

The bare existence of this book is due to the amazing fact that the solution of the stationary Schrödinger equation for the one-dimensional Hubbard model can be reduced to a set of algebraic equations, which is tractable in the thermodynamic limit. These equations will be derived in this chapter. We will call them the Lieb-Wu equations to honour E. H. Lieb and F. Y. Wu, who first obtained them [298]. The derivation is based on a method, called the nested (coordinate) Bethe ansatz, which goes back to the seminal articles of C. N. Yang [493] and M. Gaudin [154], who generalized earlier work [60, 296] on exactly solvable models to models with internal degrees of freedom. The roots of the Lieb-Wu equations parameterize the eigenvalues and the eigenstates of the Hamiltonian of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. They encode the complete information about the model. These roots are not explicitly known in the general N -particle case. In the thermodynamic limit ( N →∞), however, only the distributions of the roots in the complex plane matter, and many physical quantities can be calculated as solutions of linear or non-linear Fredholm type integral equations. Moreover, it is sometimes possible to use the Lieb-Wu equations in an implicit way even for finite N , e.g., in the proof of the SO(4) highest weight properties of the eigenstates in Sections 3.D and 3.F of the appendix or in the calculation of their norm in Section 3.5.

A novel Bethe ansatz scheme for the one-dimensional Hubbard model

Yifei Yi, Yi Qiao, Junpeng Cao +1 more

We propose a novel characterization of the exact solution of the one-dimensional Hubbard model with unparallel boundary magnetic fields. The non-diagonal boundary terms break the U(1) symmetry of the system and the number of electrons with fixed spin is not conserved. Thus it is difficult to study the physical quantities in the thermodynamic limit based on the previously obtained inhomogeneous T−Q relation and Bethe ansatz equations. In order to solve this problem, we propose the t−W scheme. The basic idea is that the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix can be expressed by its zero-roots instead of the usual Bethe roots. This method allows us to study thermodynamic properties of the system such as the ground state, surface energy, charge and spin excitations. The t−W scheme is universal and can be applied to the systems either with or without U(1) symmetry.

This thesis is devoted to the one-dimensional integrable Hubbard model and its generalizations. The Hubbard model is one of the fundamental models in condensed matter physics which describes interacting electrons on the lattice. It has very rich physical structure. Inspite of its construction simplicity it has been applied to diverse problems as high-Tc superconductivity, band magnetism and the metal-insulator transition. In one dimension the Hubbard model is an integrable model which has been intensively studied and served as a theoretical laboratory for the condensed matter physics. Recently, the integrable systems and in particular the Hubbard model, have surprisingly appeared in the AdS/CFT correspondence context. The intersection point between the fields is the Bethe equations: the ones of new integrable models and the generalizations of existing ones are relevant in the application in AdS/CFT duality. In the first part of the thesis, we present basis notions of the quantum integrability: the R-matrix formalism, the Yang-Baxter equation, integrable spin chains etc. In the second part we review several fundamental results of the one-dimensional Hubbard model: the Coordinate Bethe Ansatz solution, real solutions of the Lieb-Wu equations etc. Moreover, applications in the AdS/CFT duality are considered. However, it turns out that certain modifications of the integrable Hubbard model are necessary to reproduce the correct results of the AdS/CFT context. This is one of the main motivations of the studies of generalized Hubbard models. The fourth chapter is devoted to generalizations of the Hubbard model and we focus our attention on supersymmetric ones. The fifth chapter con- tains the results obtained in the framework of this thesis on the supersymmetric generalizations of the Hubbard models. Namely, the Coordinate Bethe Ansatz solution and real solutions of the Bethe equations in the thermodynamic limit are exposed. We point out that the obtained Bethe equations differs from the Lieb-Wu ones by phases which appearance is encouraging sign for the application in the AdS/CFT context. We also discuss possible applications in the AdS/CFT duality and in con- densed matter physics.
