Gauge invariant variables and spin-charge separation

We consider the open XXZ spin chain with unparallel boundary fields, in the special case in which the Vertex-IRF transform of the K-matrix labelling the boundary field at site 1 is diagonal and invariant under the value of the gauge parameters, the other K-matrix being arbitrary. We discuss here several properties related to this special gauge invariant boundary condition. Such a model can be solved in the Vertex-IRF framework with arbitrary gauge parameters: we can diagonalise the transfer matrix by means of generalised Sklyanin's Separation of Variable (SoV) approach in a family of SoV bases that depend on two arbitrary gauge parameters $α$ and $β$ , $β$ being the so-called dynamical parameter and $α$ an arbitrary shift of the spectral parameter. We show here that such SoV bases depend actually on $α$ and $β$ through the difference $α-β$ only. Considering the ungauged limit in which $α-β$ tends to infinity, we show how to compute all elementary building blocks for the correlation functions of this model. We finally show how to compute overlaps between eigenstates of this model and eigenstates of a spin chain sharing the same boundary condition at site $N$ and in which the gauge invariant boundary condition at site 1 has been changed to a more general one.We consider the open XXZ spin chain with unparallel boundary fields, in the special case in which the Vertex-IRF transform of the K-matrix labelling the boundary field at site 1 is diagonal and invariant under the value of the gauge parameters, the other K-matrix being arbitrary.

GAUGE INVARIANT DRESSED HOLON AND SPINON IN DOPED CUPRATES

Shiping Feng, Tianxing Ma, Jihong Qin

We develop a partial charge-spin separation fermion-spin theory implemented by the gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon. In this novel approach, the physical electron is decoupled as the gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon, with the dressed holon behaviors like a spinful fermion, and represents the charge degree of freedom together with the phase part of the spin degree of freedom, while the dressed spinon is a hard-core boson, and represents the amplitude part of the spin degree of freedom, then the electron single occupancy local constraint is satisfied. Within this approach, the charge transport and spin response of the underdoped cuprates is studied. It is shown that the charge transport is mainly governed by the scattering from the dressed holons due to the dressed spinon fluctuation, while the scattering from the dressed spinons due to the dressed holon fluctuation dominates the spin response.We develop a partial charge-spin separation fermion-spin theory implemented by the gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon.

A gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon description of the normal state of underdoped cuprates

Shiping Feng, Jihong Qin, Tianxing Ma

A partial charge-spin separation fermion-spin theory is developed to study the normal-state properties of the underdoped cuprates. In this approach, the physical electron is decoupled as a gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon, with the dressed holon behaving like a spinful fermion, and represents the charge degree of freedom together with the phase part of the spin degree of freedom, while the dressed spinon is a hard-core boson, and representing the amplitude part of the spin degree of freedom. The electron local constraint for single occupancy is satisfied. Within this approach, the charge and spin dynamics of the underdoped cuprates are studied based on the t-t'-J model. It is shown that the charge dynamics is mainly governed by the scattering from the dressed holons due to the dressed spinon fluctuation, while the scattering from the dressed spinons due to the dressed holon fluctuation dominates the spin dynamics.A partial charge-spin separation fermion-spin theory is developed to study the normal-state properties of the underdoped cuprates.
