Abstract

In two-dimensional lattice fermion model a determinant representation for the two-point correlation function of the twist field in the disorder phase is obtained. This field is defined by twisted boundary conditions for lattice fermion field. The large distance asymptotics of the correlation function is calculated at the critical point and in the scaling region. The result is compared with the vacuum expectation values of exponential fields in the sine-Gordon model conjectured by S.Lukyanov and A.Zamolodchikov.

Form factors of twist fields in the lattice Dirac theory

Pavlo Gavrylenko, N. Z. Iorgov, O. Lisovyy

We study U (1) twist fields in a two-dimensional lattice theory of massive Dirac fermions. Factorized formulas for finite-lattice form factors of these fields are derived using elliptic parametrization of the spectral curve of the model, elliptic determinant identities and theta functional interpolation. We also investigate the thermodynamic and infinite-volume scaling limit, where the corresponding expressions reduce to form factors of the exponential fields of the sine-Gordon model at the free-fermion point.

Correlation functions of twist fields from Ward identities in the massive Dirac theory

Benjamin Doyon, James Silk

We derive non-linear differential equations for correlation functions of U (1) twist fields in the two-dimensional massive Dirac theory. Primary U (1) twist fields correspond to exponential fields in the sine-Gordon model at the free-fermion point, and it is well-known that their vacuum two-point functions are determined by integrable differential equations. We extend part of this result to more general quantum states (pure or mixed) and to certain descendents, showing that some two-point functions are determined by the sinh-Gordon differential equations whenever there is translation and parity invariance, and the density matrix is the exponential of a bilinear expression in fermions. We use methods involving Ward identities associated to the copy-rotation symmetry in a model with two independent, anti-commuting copies. Such methods were used in the context of the thermally perturbed Ising quantum field theory model. We show that they are applicable to the Dirac theory as well, and we suggest that they are likely to have a much wider applicability to free fermion models in general. Finally, we note that our form-factor study of descendents twist fields combined with a CFT analysis provides a new way of evaluating vacuum expectation values of primary U (1) twist fields: by deriving and solving a recursion relation.

Quantum phase transitions and ground-state correlations in BCS-like models

Adamski, Mariusz, Janusz Jędrzejewski, Taras Krokhmalskii

We study ground-state correlation functions in one- and two-dimensional lattice models of interacting spinful fermions - BCS-like models, which exhibit continuous quantum phase transitions. The considered models originate from a two-dimensional model of d-wave superconductivity proposed by Sachdev. Due to the exact diagonalizability of the considered models in any dimensionality, exact phase diagrams, with several kinds of quantum-critical points, are constructed and closed-form analytic expressions for two-point correlation functions are obtained. In one- and two-dimensional cases we provide analytic expressions for the asymptotic behavior of those correlation functions at large distances and in neighborhoods of quantum-critical points. The novelty of our results is that in two-dimensions explicit expressions for direction-dependent correlation lengths in terms of model parameters and the values of direction-dependent universal critical indices $ν$, that characterize the divergence of correlation lengths on approaching critical points, are determined. Moreover, specific scaling properties of correlation functions with respect to parameters of underlying Hamiltonians are revealed. Besides enriching the knowledge of properties of lattice fermion systems exhibiting continuous quantum phase transitions, especially in two dimensions, our results open new possibilities of testing unconventional methods of studying quantum phase transitions, as the promising fidelity approach or the entanglement approach, beyond one-dimension and beyond the realm of paradigmatic XY and Ising chains in transverse magnetic fields.

Evaluation of correlation functions in integrable quantum field theories

James Brian Silk

The aim of this thesis is to explore correlation functions in two dimensional quantum field theories in two distinct ways. In part I a new method for calculating the differential equations parametrising the correlation functions of twist fields associated with the U (1) symmetry of the Dirac model is presented. While developing this method a new family of descendent twist fields are identified and their form factors calculated. This provides a novel way of calculating the vacuum expectation values of the primary twist fields and is shown to be entirely consistent with known results. The method of calculating the correlation functions of twist fields provides a parametrisation of several other correlation functions for various quantum states. Since this method relies on the Ward identities found in a double copy model it is hoped to have wider applications in other free fermion models. Part II concerns the truncated conformal space approach which has been developed to approximate perturbed conformal field theories. In this part the theory underpinning the approach is discussed and a working algorithm is developed for both bulk and boundary perturbed minimal models. The energy levels, mass gaps and one point functions of various models are computed using the truncated conformal space approach and are shown to be in good agreement with previous calculations. A possible method for using this approach to approximate two point functions in perturbed conformal field theories is discussed.

The correlation function in two dimensional Ising model on the finite size lattice. I

A. I. Bugrij

The correlation function of two dimensional Ising model with the nearest neighbours interaction on the finite size lattice with the periodical boundary conditions is derived. The expressions similar to the form factor representation are obtained both for the ferromagnetic and paramagnetic regions of coupling constant. The peculiarities caused by the finite size of the system are discussed. The asymptotic behaviour of the corresponding quantities as functions of size is calculated. Some generalization of the obtained result is conjectured.

Continuum derivation of the Ising model two-point function

David Wilkinson

A new derivation is presented of the exact result of Wu, McCoy, Tracy, and Barouch for the scaling-limit spin-spin correlation function in the two-dimensional Ising model. The starting point is a Fredholm determinant representation which may be obtained either in the Pfaffian formalism, or in the algebraic approach using field theory methods. The connection of this work with the quantum sine-Gordon theory is discussed.
