Quantum Inverse Scattering Method and Correlation Functions

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

The quantum inverse scattering method is a means of finding exact solutions of two-dimensional models in quantum field theory and statistical physics (such as the sine-Gordon equation or the quantum non-linear Schrödinger equation). These models are the subject of much attention amongst physicists and mathematicians. The present work is an introduction to this important and exciting area. It consists of four parts. The first deals with the Bethe ansatz and calculation of physical quantities. The authors then tackle the theory of the quantum inverse scattering method before applying it in the second half of the book to the calculation of correlation functions. This is one of the most important applications of the method and the authors have made significant contributions to the area. Here they describe some of the most recent and general approaches and include some new results. The book will be essential reading for all mathematical physicists working in field theory and statistical physics.

Final Conclusion

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

We have explained the theory of exactly solvable models on both the quantum and classical levels. We hope that the reader appreciates the beauty and perfection of the Bethe Ansatz. The theory of completely integrable nonlinear partial differential equations plays an equally important role in the book. It is deeply related to the Bethe Ansatz. We hope that our book can be used for further development of the theory of exactly solvable models (we think that the interested reader can find problems to work out in our book). Our book does not close the theory of the Bethe Ansatz; it opens new possibilities for further development. We have explained how to construct eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian and how to describe the ground state and its excitations. We have also evaluated dispersion curves and scattering matrices for the excitations. The thermodynamics of exactly solvable models is explained in this book in all the details, including the evaluation of temperature correlation functions (even if they depend on real time). The problem of the evaluation of correlation functions (for Bethe Ansatz solvable models) is solved in our book, using the example of the one-dimensional Bose gas (quantum nonlinear Schrödinger equation). It was done using the ideas of the inverse scattering method (the Lax representation, the Riemann-Hilbert problem, the Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equation, etc.). We would like also to emphasize that all other Bethe Ansatz solvable models are constructed in a similar way.

Models of Quantum Matter

Hans-Peter Eckle

Abstract This book focuses on the theory of quantum matter, strongly interacting systems of quantum many–particle physics, particularly on their study using exactly solvable and quantum integrable models with Bethe ansatz methods. Part 1 explores the fundamental methods of statistical physics and quantum many–particle physics required for an understanding of quantum matter. It also presents a selection of the most important model systems to describe quantum matter ranging from the Hubbard model of condensed matter physics to the Rabi model of quantum optics. The remaining five parts of the book examines appropriate special cases of these models with respect to their exact solutions using Bethe ansatz methods for the ground state, finite–size, and finite temperature properties. They also demonstrate the quantum integrability of an exemplary model, the Heisenberg quantum spin chain, within the framework of the quantum inverse scattering method and through the algebraic Bethe ansatz. Further models, whose Bethe ansatz solutions are derived and examined, include the Bose and Fermi gases in one dimension, the one–dimensional Hubbard model, the Kondo model, and the quantum Tavis–Cummings model, the latter a model descendent from the Rabi model.

Introduction to the Statistical Physics of Integrable Many-body Systems

Ladislav Šamaj, Zoltán Bajnok

Including topics not traditionally covered in literature, such as (1+1)-dimensional QFT and classical 2D Coulomb gases, this book considers a wide range of models and demonstrates a number of situations to which they can be applied. Beginning with a treatise of nonrelativistic 1D continuum Fermi and Bose quantum gases of identical spinless particles, the book describes the quantum inverse scattering method and the analysis of the related Yang–Baxter equation and integrable quantum Heisenberg models. It also discusses systems within condensed matter physics, the complete solution of the sine-Gordon model and modern trends in the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. Each chapter concludes with problems and solutions to help consolidate the reader's understanding of the theory and its applications. Basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and equilibrium statistical physics is assumed, making this book suitable for graduate students and researchers in statistical physics, quantum mechanics and mathematical and theoretical physics.

Introduction to Part IV

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

The quantum correlation functions for different exactly solvable (completely integrable) models are all constructed in a similar way. In Part IV our main example will be the nonlinear Schrödinger (NS) equation. We shall also comment on the other models: the Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the Hubbard model and so on. We shall discuss different approaches to quantum correlation functions. Our main approach leads to differential equations for quantum correlation functions. These are classical nonlinear differential equations; they are completely integrable and closely related to the original classical differential equation that was quantized (the NS equation in our case). In the first stage of calculation of correlation functions we represent them as a determinant of some Predholm integral operator (here we shall use the results of Part III). The correct language for the description of quantum correlation functions is the language of τ functions, which was developed in. This helps us to relate the differential equations for quantum correlation functions with the hierarchy of the original classical differential equation that was quantized (the NS equation in our example). In this way we solve the most difficult problem; that of the evaluation of time-and temperature-dependent correlation functions. This approach can be applied not only to correlation functions for the NS equation, but also to the sine-Gordon model, to non-relativistic fermions, to the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic with special anisotropy and to other models.

Introduction to Part II

V. E. Korepin, N. M. Bogoliubov, Anatoli G. Izergin

The quantum inverse scattering method relates the Bethe Ansatz to the theory of classical completely integrable differential equations. These are sometimes called soliton equations. The modern way to solve them is called the classical inverse scattering method. In a sense this is a nonlinear generalization of the Fourier transform. In this Part the quantum inverse scattering method is expounded. The main statements of the classical inverse scattering method necessary for quantization are given in Chapter V where the Lax representation is introduced. The Hamiltonian structure of integrable models is also discussed along with the infinite number of integrals of motion. The most convenient method of analyzing the Hamiltonian structure relies on the classical r -matrix. Some concrete models will be considered. Chapter VI is devoted in particular to the quantum inverse scattering method. The R-matrix, which is the main object of this method, is introduced. The Yang-Baxter equation for the R-matrix is discussed. The main statements of the method are given and a number of examples are presented. The algebraic formulation of the Bethe Ansatz, one of the main achievements of the quantum inverse scattering method, is presented in Chapter VII. The notion of the determinant of the transition matrix in the quantum case is introduced in this chapter. (This is closely related to the concept of the antipode in quantum groups.)
