Analytic theory of the eight-vertex model

We observe that the exactly solved eight-vertex solid-on-solid model contains an hitherto unnoticed arbitrary field parameter, similar to the horizontal field in the six-vertex model. The parameter is required to describe a continuous spectrum of the unrestricted solid-on-solid model, which has an infinite-dimensional space of states even for a finite lattice. The introduction of the continuous field parameter allows us to completely review the theory of functional relations in the eight-vertex/SOS-model from a uniform analytic point of view. We also present a number of analytic and numerical techniques for the analysis of the Bethe ansatz equations. It turns out that different solutions of these equations can be obtained from each other by analytic continuation. In particular, for small lattices we explicitly demonstrate that the largest and smallest eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the eight-vertex model are just different branches of the same multivalued function of the field parameter.     

BCS–BEC crossover in one-dimensional integrable model

The crossover from Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) superfluid with singlet pairs to Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) of molecules is studied in one dimension. By use of the nested Bethe ansatz method, the ground state properties of spin-1/2 fermions interacting through attractive δ-function are analyzed explicitly for strong and weak couplings. Based on those results, we confirm a crossover picture, that is, in the BEC regime (strong couplings) the system is described by molecules with weak repulsion while in the BCS regime (weak couplings) it behaves as the weakly attractive fermions.     

Second quantized reduced Bloch equations and the exact solutions for pairing Hamiltonian

In this article, we present a set of hierarchy Bloch equations for the reduced density operators in either canonical or grand canonical ensembles in the occupation number representation. They provide a convenient tool for studying the equilibrium quantum statistical mechanics for some model systems. As an example of their applications, we solve the equations for the model system with a pairing Hamiltonian. With the aid of its symplectic group symmetry, we obtain the statistical reduced density matrices with different orders. As a special instance for the solutions, we also get the reduced density matrices of the ground state for a superconductor.     

Cumulant approach to dynamical correlation functions at finite temperatures

A new theoretical approach, based on the introduction of cumulants, to calculate thermodynamic averages and dynamical correlation functions at finite temperatures is developed. The method is formulated in Liouville instead of Hilbert space and can be applied to operators which do not require to satisfy fermion or boson commutation relations. The application of the partitioning and projection methods for the dynamical correlation functions is considered. The present method can be applied to weakly as well as to strongly correlated systems.     

Electron-hole generations: a numerical approach to interacting fermion systems

A new approach, motivated by Fock space localization, for constructing a reduced many-particle Hilbert space is proposed and tested. The self-consistent Hartree-Fock approach is used to obtain a single-electron basis from which the many-particle Hilbert space is constructed. For a given size of the truncated many particle Hilbert space, only states with the lowest number of particle-hole excitations are retained and exactly diagonalized. This method is shown to be more accurate than previous truncation methods, while there is no additional computational complexity.     

A planar model for interacting fermions

One-particle Green function in the paramagnetic phase of a model of interacting fermions is obtained in the planar approximation. The model is zero-dimensional, in that thermal fluctuations are the only source of kinetic energy.     

Fractional exclusion statistics in general systems of interacting particles

I show that fractional exclusion statistics is manifested in general interacting systems and I calculate the exclusion statistics parameters. Most importantly, I prove that the mutual exclusion statistics parameters are proportional to the dimension of the Hilbert space on which they act [D.V. Anghel, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 40 (2007) F1013].     

Analytical study of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an arbitrary linear time-dependent potential in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates

Under investigation in this paper is a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an arbitrary linear time-dependent potential, which governs the soliton dynamics in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates (quasi-1DBECs). With Painlevé analysis method performed to this model, its integrability is firstly examined. Then, the distinct treatments based on the truncated Painlevé expansion, respectively, give the bilinear form and the Painlevé-Bäcklund transformation with a family of new exact solutions. Furthermore, via the computerized symbolic computation, a direct method is employed to easily and directly derive the exact analytical dark- and bright-solitonic solutions. At last, of physical and experimental interests, these solutions are graphically discussed so as to better understand the soliton dynamics in quasi-1DBECs.     

On the solutions of 3-particle spin elliptic Calogero-Moser systems

We describe a class of the singular solutions to the multicomponent analogs of the Lamé equation, arising as equations of motion of the elliptic Calogero-Moser systems of particles carrying spin 1/2. At special value of the coupling constant we propose the ansatz which allows one to get meromorphic solutions with two arbitrary parameters. They are quantized upon the requirement of the regularity of the wave function on the hyperplanes at which particles meet and imposing periodic boundary conditions. We find also the extra integrals of motion for three-particle systems which commute with the Hamiltonian for arbitrary values of the coupling constant.     

Power spectrum analysis of the average-fluctuation density separation in interacting particle systems

The power spectrum analysis using the Lomb-Scargle false alarm probability statistic shows a clear separation between the average and fluctuating parts of the state density in embedded two-body random matrix ensembles with a mean-field for both fermion and boson systems as well as in the nuclear shell model.     

Sutherland models for complex reflection groups

There are known to be integrable Sutherland models associated to every real root system, or, which is almost equivalent, to every real reflection group. Real reflection groups are special cases of complex   reflection groups. In this paper we associate certain integrable Sutherland models to the classical family of complex reflection groups. Internal degrees of freedom are introduced, defining dynamical spin chains, and the freezing limit taken to obtain static chains of Haldane–Shastry type. By considering the relation of these models to the usual BCN$B{C}_N$ case, we are led to systems with both real and complex reflection groups as symmetries. We demonstrate their integrability by means of new Dunkl operators, associated to wreath products of dihedral groups.     

N-Soliton Solution in Wronskian Form for a Generalized Variable-Coefficient Korteweg--de Vries Equation

We concentrate on finding exact solutions for a generalized variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries equation of physically significance. The analytic N-soliton solution in Wronskian form for such a model is postulated and verified by direct substituting the solution into the bilinear form by virtue of the Wronskian technique. Additionally, the bilinear auto-Backlund transformation between the （ N - 1）- and N-soliton solutions is verified.     

One- plus two-body random matrix ensembles with spin: Results for pairing correlations

For EGOE(1+2)-s ensemble for fermions, in the strong coupling region, partial densities over pairing subspaces follow Gaussian form and propagation formulas for their centroids and variances are derived. Similarly for this ensemble: (i) pair transfer strength sums, a statistic for chaos, are shown to follow a simple form; (ii) a quantity used in conductance peak spacings analysis is shown to exhibit bimodal form when pairing is stronger than the exchange interaction.     

Analytic theory of correlation energy and spin polarization in the 2D electron gas

We present an analytic theory of the pair distribution function and the ground-state energy in a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas with an arbitrary degree of spin polarization. Our approach involves the solution of a zero-energy scattering Schrödinger equation with an effective potential which includes a Fermi term from exchange and kinetic energy and a Bose-like term from Jastrow-Feenberg correlations. The form of the latter is assessed from an analysis of data on a 2D gas of charged bosons. We obtain excellent agreement with data from quantum Monte Carlo studies of the 2D electron gas. In particular, our results for the correlation energy show a quantum phase transition occurring at coupling strength r_s≈24 from the paramagnetic to the fully spin-polarized fluid.     

Increase of temperature of an ideal nondegenerate quantum gas in a suddenly expanding box due to energy quantization

We show that due to energy quantization the temperature of an ideal nondegenerate quantum gas in a rectangular box always increases after a sudden expansion of the box and a subsequent thermalization. The maximal increment of temperature is proportional to the square root of the product of the initial absolute temperature by the energy of the first discrete quantum level, i.e., it is proportional to the first power of the Planck constant.     

Factorization of the scattering matrix and the location of the eigenvalues of the Manakov-Zakharov-Shabat system

We show the scattering matrix associated to the Manakov-Zakharov-Shabat (MZS) system can be factorized as the product of two scattering matrices associated to the Zakharov-Shabat (ZS) system of the Nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation, whenever the initial conditions of the Manakov system have disjoint support. Moreover, if these initial conditions are assumed to be single-lobe, the eigenvalues of the MZS system are purely imaginary.

Moreover, new non-isospectral integrable couplings of the resulting AKNS soliton hierarchy are constructed by enlarging the associated matrix spectral problem.     

Additional Symmetries and String Equation of the CKP Hierarchy

Based on the Orlov and Shulman’s M operator, the additional symmetries and the string equation of the CKP hierarchy are established, and then the higher order constraints on L ^l are obtained. In addition, the generating function and some properties are also given. In particular, the additional symmetry flows form a new infinite dimensional algebra , which is a subalgebra of W _1+∞.      

Hierarchies of multi-component mKP equations and theirs integrable couplings

First, a new multi-component modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvill (mKP) spectral problem is constructed by k-constraint imposed on a general pseudo-differential operator. Then, two hierarchies of multi-component mKP equations are derived, including positive non-isospectral mKP hierarchy and negative non-isospectral mKP hierarchy. Moreover, new integrable couplings of the resulting mKP soliton hierarchies are constructed by enlarging the associated matrix spectral problem.
