Form factors of integrable Heisenberg (higher) spin chains

Abstract

We present determinant formulae for the form factors of spin operators of general integrable XXX Heisenberg spin chains for arbitrary (finite-dimensional) spin representations. The results apply to any 'mixed' spin chains, such as alternating spin chains, or to spin chains with magnetic impurities.

Asymptotic analysis of the form-factors of quantum spin chains

G. Kulkarni

Since a long-time, the quantum integrable systems have remained an area where modern mathematical methods have given an access to interesting results in the study of physical systems. The exact computations, both numerical and asymptotic, of the correlation function is one of the most important subject of the theory of the quantum integrable models. In this context an approach based on the calculation of form factors has been proved to be a more effective one. In this thesis, we develop a new method based on the algebraic Bethe ansatz for the computation of the form-factors in thermodynamic limit. It is both applied to and described in the context of isotropic XXX Heisenberg chain, which is one of the examples of an interesting case of critical models where the Fermi-zone is non-compact. In a particular case of two-spinon form-factors, we obtain an exact result in a closed-form which matches the previous result obtained from an approach based on $q$-vertex operator algebra. This method is then generalised to form-factors in higher spinon sectors where we find a reduced determinant representation for the form-factors, in which a higher-level structure for the form-factors is revealed.

S. Belliard, Stanislav Zdislavovich Pakuliak, E. Ragoucy +1 more

We study SU(3)-invariant integrable models solvable by nested algebraic Bethe ansatz. We obtain determinant representations for form factors of diagonal entries of the monodromy matrix. This representation can be used for the calculation of form factors and correlation functions of the XXX SU(3)-invariant Heisenberg chain.

Form Factors of the Heisenberg Spin Chain in the Thermodynamic Limit: Dealing with Complex Bethe Roots

Universit&, N Kitanine, #233 +5 more

In this article we study the thermodynamic limit of the form factors of the XXX Heisenberg spin chain using the algebraic Bethe ansatz approach. Our main goal is to express the form factors for the low-lying excited states as determinants of matrices that remain finite dimensional in the thermodynamic limit. We show how to treat all types of the complex roots of the Bethe equations within this framework. In particular we demonstrate that the Gaudin determinant for the higher level Bethe equations arises naturally from the algebraic Bethe ansatz.

Reduction formula of form factors for the integrable spin-sXXZ chains and application to correlation functions

Tetsuo Deguchi

For the integrable spin- s XXZ chain we express explicitly any given spin- s form factor in terms of a sum over the scalar products of the spin-1/2 fundamental operators of the algebraic Bethe ansatz. Here, they are given by the operator-valued matrix elements of the monodromy matrix of the spin-1/2 XXZ spin chain. We derive the reduction formula of higher-spin form factors by the fusion method in detail. We call an arbitrary matrix element of a local operator between two Bethe eigenstates a form factor of the operator in this paper. We thus revise the derivation of the higher-spin XXZ form factors given in a previous paper. The revised method has several interesting applications in mathematical physics. For instance, we express the spin- s XXZ correlation function of an arbitrary entry at zero temperature in terms of a sum of multiple integrals.

Form factors in quantum integrable models with GL(3) -invariant R-matrix

Stanislav Zdislavovich Pakuliak, E. Ragoucy, N. A. Slavnov

We study integrable models solvable by the nested algebraic Bethe ansatz and possessing GL(3)-invariant R-matrix. We obtain determinant representations for form factors of off-diagonal entries of the monodromy matrix. These representations can be used for the calculation of form factors and correlation functions of the XXX SU(3)-invariant Heisenberg chain.
