FROM QUANTUM AFFINE GROUPS TO THE EXACT DYNAMICAL CORRELATION FUNCTION OF THE HEISENBERG MODEL

A. Hamid Bougourzi, M Couture, M. Kacir

Published Jan 1, 1996• 0 citations

Abstract

The exact form factors of the Heisenberg models XXX and XXZ have been recently computed through the quantum affine symmetry of XXZ model in the thermodynamic limit. We use them to derive an exact formula for the contribution of two spinons to the dynamical correlation function of XXX model at zero temperature. 1.

Exact two-spinon dynamical correlation function of the one-dimensional Heisenberg model

A. Hamid Bougourzi, M Couture, M. Kacir

We derive the exact contribution of two spinons to the dynamical correlation function of the spin-\textonehalf{} Heisenberg model. For this, we use the isotropic limits of the exact form factors that have been recently computed through the quantum affine symmetry of the anisotropic Heisenberg model $\mathrm{XXZ}$.

The four-spinon dynamical structure factor of the Heisenberg chain

Jean-Sébastien Caux, Rob Hagemans

We compute the exact four-spinon contribution to the zero-temperature dynamical structure factor of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg isotropic antiferromagnet in zero magnetic field, directly in the thermodynamic limit. We make use of the expressions for matrix elements of local spin operators obtained by Jimbo and Miwa using the quantum affine symmetry of the model, and of their adaptation to the isotropic case by Abada, Bougourzi and Si-Lakhal (correcting some overall factors). The four-spinon contribution to the first frequency moment sum rule at fixed momentum is calculated. This shows, as expected, that most of the remaining correlation weight above the known two-spinon part is carried by four-spinon states. Our results therefore provide an extremely accurate description of the exact structure factor.

Computation of dynamical correlation functions of Heisenberg chains: the gapless anisotropic regime

Jean-Sébastien Caux, Rob Hagemans, Jean Michel Maillet

We compute all dynamical spin–spin correlation functions for the spin-1/2 XXZ anisotropic Heisenberg model in the gapless antiferromagnetic regime at zero temperature, using numerical sums of exact determinant representations for form factors of spin operators on the lattice. Contributions from intermediate states containing many particles and string (bound) states are included. We present modified determinant representations for the form factors valid in the general case with string solutions to the Bethe equations. Our results are such that the available sum rules are saturated to high precision. We Fourier transform our results back to real space, allowing us in particular to make a comparison with known exact formulae for equal-time correlation functions for small separations in zero field, and with predictions for the zero-field asymptotics from conformal field theory.

CORRELATION FUNCTIONS OF THE XXZ SPIN-½ HEISENBERG CHAIN: RECENT ADVANCES (REVIEW)

N Kitanine, Jean Michel Maillet, N. A. Slavnov +1 more

We review some recent advances in the computation of exact correlation functions of the XXZ-½ Heisenberg chain. We first give a general introduction to our method which is based on the algebraic Bethe ansatz and the resolution of the quantum inverse scattering problem, leading in particular to multiple integral representations for the correlation functions. Then we describe recently obtained compact formulas for the spin-spin correlation functions of the XXZ-½ Heisenberg chain. We outline how this leads to several explicit results including the known two point functions in the limit of free fermions, the so-called emptiness formation probability at anisotropy Δ=1/2 and its large distance asymptotic behaviour in the massless phase of the model.

The exact two-spinon longitudinal dynamical structure factor of the anisotropic XXZ model

Isaac Pérez Castillo

Inelastic neutron scattering experiments are commonly used to unveil how excitations on Heisenberg spin models play a role in dynamical correlations functions. For a certain class of materials, like CsCoCl$_3$ or CsCoBr$_3$ salts, it turns out that their magnetic properties are fairly well approximated by quasi-one dimensional XXZ models, which enjoy the property of quantum integrability. In these instances, one can in principle use their underlying algebraic structure to describe very precisely how excitations, the so-called spinons, participate in dynamical correlations functions. Even though the available theories (either algebraic Bethe ansatz or quantum group approach) provide all the needed physical quantities such as form factors, complete set of eigenstates and spectrum, it is typically a rather daunting task, however, to obtain sufficiently simple analytical expressions for computing Dynamical Structure Factors (DSFs), valuable, e.g., for parameters estimation based on experimental data. This is particularly the case for the longitudinal DSF of the XXZ model, which has eluded a formal mathematical treatment thus far. Using the quantum group approach, we present here an exact and simple expression of the 2-spinon longitudinal DSF and show our results to be consistent with the expected sum rules and the isotropic and Ising antiferromagnet limiting cases.
