Next-nearest-neighbour correlation functions of the spin-1/2XXZchain at the critical region

Abstract

The correlation functions of the spin-1/2 XXZ spin chain in the ground state are expressed in the form of the multiple integrals. For -1< Delta <1, they were obtained by Jimbo and Miwa in 1996. Especially the next nearest-neighbour correlation functions are given as certain three-dimensional integrals. We shall show these integrals can be reduced to one-dimensional ones and thereby evaluate the values of the next nearest-neighbor correlation functions. We have also found that the remaining one-dimensinal integrals can be evaluated analytically, when nu = arccos(Delta)/pi is a rational number.

Next Nearest-Neighbor Correlation Functions of the Spin-1/2XXZChain at Massive Region

Minoru Takahashi, Go Kato, Masahiro Shiroishi

The second neighbor correlation functions of the spin-${1/2}$ $XXZ$ chain in the ground state are expressed in the form of three dimensional integrals. We show that these integrals can be reduced to one-dimensional ones and thereby evaluate the values of the next nearest-neighbor correlation functions for ${Δ>1}$.

Third-neighbour and other four-point correlation functions of spin-1/2XXZchain

Go Kato, Masahiro Shiroishi, Minoru Takahashi +1 more

The correlation functions of the spin-1/2 XXZ chain in the ground state were expressed in the form of multiple integrals for −1 < Δ ⩽ 1 and 1 < Δ. In particular, adjacent four-point correlation functions were given as certain four-dimensional integrals. We show that these integrals can be reduced to polynomials with respect to specific one-dimensional integrals. The results give the polynomial representation of the third-neighbour correlation functions.

Integrable spin-1/2 XXZ Heisenberg chain with competing interactions

Holger Frahm

The critical behaviour of an integrable model of a spin- 1/2 chain with nearest-neighbour XXZ interaction and a competing three-spin interaction involving nearest and next-nearest neighbours is studied. The phase diagram at zero temperature is obtained. Methods from conformal field theory are used to compute the asymptotics of the spin-spin correlation functions.

Density matrix elements and entanglement entropy for the spin-1/2 XXZ chain at Δ = 1/2

Jun Sato, Masahiro Shiroishi

We have analytically obtained all the density matrix elements up to six lattice sites for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg XXZ chain at Δ = 1/2. We use the multiple integral formula of the correlation function for the massless XXZ chain derived by Jimbo and Miwa. As for the spin–spin correlation functions, we have newly obtained the fourth- and fifth-neighbour transverse correlation functions. We have calculated all the eigenvalues of the density matrix and analyse the eigenvalue distribution. Using these results the exact values of the entanglement entropy for the reduced density matrix up to six lattice sites have been obtained. We observe that our exact results agree quite well with the asymptotic formula predicted by the conformal field theory.

Next-nearest-neighbor spin-spin and chiral-spin correlation functions in a generalized XXX chain

V. V. Mkhitaryan, A. Sedrakyan

We develop a simple technique for calculation of next-to-nearest-neighbor spin-spin and chiral-spin correlation functions in an inhomogeneous $XXX$ model. Exact expression of the chiral-spin order parameter as a function of the model parameter, $\ensuremath{\omega}$, is analytically found. Using the same method we also calculate the next-to-nearest-neighbor spin-spin correlation function. In the limit $\ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ it reproduces the known result for the vacuum expectation value of the next-to-nearest-neighbor spins in the standard Heisenberg spin chain. The technique is simple and can be extended for calculation of next-to-next-to-nearest-neighbor correlation functions as well as for calculation of correlation functions in the $XXZ$ model.

Relaxation inS=1/2 quantum spin chains: The role of second neighbor interactions

Surajit Sen, C. N. Hoff, Dennis E. Kuhl +1 more

Most of the existing dynamical studies in one dimension on magnetic insulators have considered the simplest spin models with nearest-neighbor interactions. In real systems, however, it is possible that longer range interactions are not entirely negligible. It is expected that the inclusion of next-nearest-neighbor interactions between spins in one-dimensional spin models will introduce a multitude of new frequencies in addition to the ones already present in the dynamics that arises due to nearest-neighbor interactions. We first present an exact solution for the dynamical xx-spin-pair correlations in an Ising chain with both nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions to confirm our expectation. We next show, via an approximate analytical calculation, that the dynamical zz-spin-pair correlations in the next-nearest-neighbor transverse Ising chain when plotted as a function of time is noticeably different with respect to the exactly solvable nearest-neighbor transverse Ising chain at T\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty} when the next-nearest-neighbor interaction is \ensuremath{\gtrsim}1/2 of the magnitude of the nearest-neighbor interaction. The effects could be fairly subtle in the time domain representation and in the spectral function when these additional interactions are weak (i.e., 1/2 of the nearest-neighbor interaction magnitude). The general conclusions reached in this work are expected to be valid for other simple quantum spin models such as the XY and XXZ models in one dimension. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.
