TBA equations for excited states in the sine–Gordon model

Abstract

We propose TBA integral equations for multiparticle soliton (fermion) states in the Sine-Gordon (massive Thirring) model. This is based on T-system and Y-system equations, which follow from the Bethe Ansatz solution in the light-cone lattice formulation of the model. Even and odd charge sectors are treated on an equal footing, corresponding to periodic and twisted boundary conditions, respectively. The analytic properties of the Y-system functions are conjectured on the basis of the large volume solution of the system, which we find explicitly. A simple relation between the TBA Y-functions and the counting function variable of the alternative non-linear integral equation (Destri-deVega equation) description of the model is given.

Commensurate-Incommensurate Transition in the Two-Dimensional Sine-Gordon System: the Bethe Ansatz Calculation

Yukio Okwamoto

Recently Haldane has derived the Bethe ansatz equations describing the ground state properties of the massive Thirring model with finite `hole' density (the quantum sine-Gordon model with finite soliton density). His derivation is explicitly confirmed here using a particular cutoff scheme, and his solutions of the equations in various limits are reviewed with complementary results. The commensurate-incommensurate transition in the two-dimensional sine-Gordon model with a uniaxial misfit is examined at finite temperatures using the results obtained in the massive Thirring model.

Lattice approach to finite volume form-factors of the Massive Thirring (Sine-Gordon) model

Árpád Hegedűs

In this paper we demonstrate, that the light-cone lattice approach for the Massive-Thirring (sine-Gordon) model, through the quantum inverse scattering method, admits an appropriate framework for computing the finite volume form-factors of local operators of the model. In this work we compute the finite volume diagonal matrix elements of the U(1) conserved current in the pure soliton sector of the theory. Based on the systematic large volume expansion of our results, we conjecture an exact expression for the finite volume expectation values of local operators in pure soliton states. At large volume in leading order these expectation values have the same form as in purely elastic scattering theories, but exponentially small corrections differ from previous Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz conjectures of purely elastic scattering theories.

Excited State TBA and Functional Relations in Spinless Fermion Model

Kazumitsu Sakai

The excited state thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) equations for the spinless Fermion model are presented by the quantum transfer matrix (QTM) approach. We introduce a more general family called T-functions and explore functional relations among them (T-system) and their certain combinations (Y-system). {}From their analytical property, we derive a closed set of non-linear integral equations which characterize the correlation length of $$ at any finite temperatures. Solving these equations numerically, we explicitly determine the correlation length, which coincides with earlier results with high accuracy.

Finite temperature excitations of the quantum sine-Gordon–massive Thirring model: Variation of the soliton mass with coupling constant and temperature

Michael Durnan Johnson, Michael Fowler

For the quantum sine-Gordon--massive Thirring model at finite temperature, the relationship between the Bethe ansatz ``elementary excitations'' and physical excitations of the system is examined. The thermodynamic equations are written in terms of a set of dressed particles in the general case. We find that the recently predicted soliton mass discontinuity (on varying coupling strength at finite temperature) is not a real effect--the function exhibiting the discontinuity does not correspond to the mass of the soliton.

Quantum field ground state of the sine-Gordon model with finite soliton density: exact results

F. D. M. Haldane

The Bethe ansatz solutions of the massive Thirring model are renormalised and used to obtain exactly the ground-state properties of the sine-Gordon model with a finite density of topological solitons. Using a theory of 1D quantum fluids, the correlation function exponents and low-energy excitation spectrum are obtained. Expansions in various limits are given, and various crossovers described.
