Short-distance thermal correlations in the XXZ chain

Recent studies have revealed much of the mathematical structure of the static correlation functions of the XXZ chain. Here we use the results of those studies in order to work out explicit examples of short-distance correlation functions in the infinite chain. We compute two-point functions ranging over 2, 3 and 4 lattice sites as functions of the temperature and the magnetic field for various anisotropies in the massless regime $- 1 < Δ< 1$. It turns out that the new formulae are numerically efficient and allow us to obtain the correlations functions over the full parameter range with arbitrary precision.

Density matrices for finite segments of Heisenberg chains of arbitrary length

We derive a multiple integral representing the ground state density matrix of a segment of length $m$ of the XXZ spin chain on $L$ lattice sites, which depends on $L$ only parametrically. This allows us to treat chains of arbitrary finite length. Specializing to the isotropic limit of the XXX chain we show for small $m$ that the multiple integrals factorize. We conjecture that this property holds for arbitrary $m$ and suggest an exponential formula for the density matrix which involves only a double Cauchy type integral in the exponent. We demonstrate the efficiency of our formula by computing the next-to-nearest neighbour $zz$-correlation function for chain lengths ranging from two to macroscopic numbers.

Nonlinear integral equations for the thermodynamics of the sl(4)-symmetric Uimin-Sutherland model

We derive a finite set of nonlinear integral equations (NLIE) for the thermodynamics of the one-dimensional sl(4)-symmetric Uimin-Sutherland model. Our NLIE can be evaluated numerically for arbitrary finite temperature and chemical potentials. We recover the NLIE for sl(3) as a limiting case. In comparison to other recently derived NLIE, the evaluation at low temperature poses no problem in our formulation. The model shows a rich ground-state phase diagram. We obtain the critical fields from the T to zero limit of our NLIE. As an example for the application of the NLIE, we give numerical results for the SU(4) spin-orbital model. The magnetic susceptibility shows divergences at critical fields in the low-temperature limit and logarithmic singularities for zero magnetic field.
