Equivalence of the Sutherland Model to Free Particles on a Circle

Abstract

A method is developed to construct the solutions of one and many variable, linear differential equations of arbitrary order. Using this, the $N$-particle Sutherland model, with pair-wise inverse sine-square interactions among the particles, is shown to be equivalent to free particles on a circle. Applicability of our method to many other few and many-body problems is also illustrated.

Equivalence of the Calogero-Sutherland model to free harmonic oscillators

Nakka Gurappa, Prasanta Kumar Panigrahi

A similarity transformation is constructed, through which a system of particles interacting with inverse-square two-body and harmonic potentials in one dimension can be mapped identically to a set of free harmonic oscillators. This equivalence provides a straightforward method to find the complete set of eigenfunctions, the exact constants of motion, and a linear ${W}_{1+\ensuremath{\infty}}$ algebra associated with this model. It is also demonstrated that a large class of models with long-range interactions, both in one and higher dimensions can be made equivalent to decoupled oscillators.

Singular factorizations, self-adjoint extensions, and applications to quantum many-body physics

Edwin Langmann A, Ari Arievich Laptev, Cornelius Paufler

We study self-adjoint operators defined by factorizing second order differential operators in first order ones. We discuss examples where such factorizations introduce singular interactions into simple quantum mechanical models like the harmonic oscillator or the free particle on the circle. The generalization of these examples to the many-body case yields quantum models of distinguishable and interacting particles in one dimensions which can be solved explicitly and by simple means. Our considerations lead us to a simple method to construct exactly solvable quantum many-body systems of Calogero-Sutherland type. 1. Introduction. In this paper we define and study peculiar self-adjoint extensions of simple differential operators like the one defining the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator. We also find the explicit solution of some of the resulting quantum mechanical models and discuss their physical interpretations. These examples provide amusing illustrations that the

Algorithms to solve the (quantum) Sutherland model

Edwin Langmann A

We give a self-contained presentation and comparison of two different algorithms to explicitly solve quantum many body models of indistinguishable particles moving on a circle and interacting with two-body potentials of 1/sin2-type. The first algorithm is due to Sutherland and well-known; the second one is a limiting case of a novel algorithm to solve the elliptic generalization of the Sutherland model. These two algorithms are different in several details. We show that they are equivalent, i.e., they yield the same solution and are equally simple.

Unified algebraic approach to few- and many-body correlated systems

Nakka Gurappa, Prasanta Kumar Panigrahi

The present paper is an extended version of another paper [Phys. Rev. B 59, R2490 (1999)], where we have established the equivalence of the Calogero-Sutherland model to decoupled oscillators. Here, we first employ the same approach for finding the eigenstates of a large class of Hamiltonians, dealing with correlated systems. A number of few- and many-body interacting models are studied and the relationship between their respective Hilbert spaces, with that of oscillators, is found. This connection is then used to obtain the spectrum generating algebras for these systems and make an algebraic statement about correlated systems. The procedure to generate solvable interacting models is outlined. We then point out the inadequacies of the present technique and make use of a method for solving linear differential equations to diagonalize the Sutherland model and establish a precise connection between this correlated system's wave functions, with those of the free particles on a circle. In the process, we obtain an expression for the Jack polynomials. In two dimensions, we analyze the Hamiltonian having Laughlin wave function as the ground state and point out the natural emergence of the underlying linear ${W}_{1+\ensuremath{\infty}}$ symmetry in this approach.

Generalized Calogero-Sutherland systems from many-matrix models

Polychronakos, A P

We construct generalizations of the Calogero-Sutherland-Moser system by appropriately reducing a model involving many unitary matrices. The resulting systems consist of particles on the circle with internal degrees of freedom, coupled through modifications of the inverse-square potential. The coupling involves SU(M) non-invariant (anti)ferromagnetic interactions of the internal degrees of freedom. The systems are shown to be integrable and the spectrum and wavefunctions of the quantum version are derived.
