Bosonization and the many-body problem

A. H. Castro Neto

Published Jan 1, 1994• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

In this thesis the method of bosonization of fermionic many-body systems in any number of dimensions is developed. After an introduction to the problem in chapter 1 and to the method of bosonization in chapter 2 (with its application to the non-interacting problem) the Fermi liquid behavior of interacting fermions in dimensions higher than one is discussed in chapter 3. In chapter 4 I rederive the well-known bosonization of the Tomonaga-Luttinger model in one dimension within the framework discussed in the preceding chapters. In chapter 5 I present the bosonization of elementary excitations of exactly solvable one dimensional systems with special emphasis on the Hubbard chain. Chapter 6 contains the conclusions.

An Introduction to Bosonization and Some of its Applications

Sumathi Rao, Diptiman Sen

This chapter discusses the technique of bosonization for studying systems of interacting fermions in one dimension. It reviews the low-energy properties of Fermi and Luttinger liquids and presents some of the relations between bosonic and fermionic operators in one dimension. The chapter explores these relations to calculate the correlation functions and the renormalization group properties of various operators for a system of spinless fermions. It explains the methods of bosonization to study the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic spin 1/2 chain, the Hubbard model in one dimension and transport in clean quantum wires and in the presence of isolated impurities. The basic idea of bosonization is that there are certain objects which can be calculated either in a fermionic theory or in a bosonic theory, and the two calculations give the same answer. The chapter also discusses another application of bosonization, which is to study transport, in particular the DC conductivity in one-dimensional wires of interacting fermions.

We discuss the technique of bosonization for studying systems of interacting fermions in one dimension. After briefly reviewing the low-energy properties of Fermi and Luttinger liquids, we present some of the relations between bosonic and fermionic operators in one dimension. We use these relations to calculate the correlation functions and the renormalization group properties of various operators for a system of spinless fermions. We then apply the methods of bosonization to study the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic spin 1/2 chain, the Hubbard model in one dimension and transport in clean quantum wires and in the presence of isolated impurities.

Bosonization and Strongly Correlated Systems

Alexander O. Gogolin, A. A. Nersesyan, Alexei M. Tsvelik

This volume provides a detailed account of bosonization. The first part of the book examines the technical aspects of bosonization including one-dimensional fermions, the Gaussian model, the structure of Hilbert space in conformal theories, Bose-Einstein condensation in two dimensions, non-Abelian bosonization, and the Ising and WZNW models. The second part presents applications of the bosonization technique to realistic models including the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid, spin liquids in one dimension and the spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain with alternative exchange. The third part addresses the problems of quantum impurities. Chapters cover potential scattering, the X-ray edge problem, impurities in Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids and the multi-channel Kondo problem.

This chapter looks at less usual realizations of Luttinger liquids than the ones coming from fermionic systems. The first realization is provided by interacting bosons. Indeed, in one dimension it is impossible to decouple completely the statistics from the interactions, and one- and quasi-one-dimensional bosons are also described by Luttinger liquids. The discussion shows how the techniques used to tackle one dimension can be used in higher dimensions as well. An important class of problems examined in this chapter is the case of impurities coupled with a three-dimensional electron gas. Josephson junction arrays and Bose condensates are also considered, along with X-ray, Kondo, and multi-channel Kondo problems. Applications of bosonization to the study of quantum impurities in three-dimensional Fermi liquids are analyzed.

One dimensional bosons: From condensed matter systems to ultracold gases

The physics of one-dimensional interacting bosonic systems is reviewed. Beginning with results from exactly solvable models and computational approaches, the concept of bosonic Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids relevant for one-dimensional Bose fluids is introduced, and compared with Bose-Einstein condensates existing in dimensions higher than one. The effects of various perturbations on the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid state are discussed as well as extensions to multicomponent and out of equilibrium situations. Finally, the experimental systems that can be described in terms of models of interacting bosons in one dimension are discussed.
