Quantum Inverse Scattering Method and Correlation Functions

Quantum Inverse Scattering Method and Correlation Functions

The quantum inverse scattering method is a means of finding exact solutions of two-dimensional models in quantum field theory and statistical physics (such as the sine-Go rdon equation or the quantum non-linear Schrödinger equation). These models are the subject of much attention amongst physicists and mathematicians.The present work is an introduction to this important and exciting area. It consists of four parts. The first deals with the Bethe ansatz and calculation of physical quantities. The authors then tackle the theory of the quantum inverse scattering method before applying it in the second half of the book to the calculation of correlation functions. This is one of the most important applications of the method and the authors have made significant contributions to the area. Here they describe some of the most recent and general approaches and include some new results.The book will be essential reading for all mathematical physicists working in field theory and statistical physics.

The One-Dimensional Hubbard Model

This book presents an account of the exact solution of the Hubbard model in one dimension. The early chapters develop a self-contained introduction to Bethe's ansatz and its application to the one-dimensional Hubbard model. The later chapters address more advanced topics.

Exactly Solvable Models of Strongly Correlated Electrons

Systems of strongly correlated electrons are at the heart of recent developments in condensed matter theory. They have applications to phenomena like high-c superconductivity and the fractional quantum hall effect. Analytical solutions to such models, though mainly limited to one spatial dimension, provide a complete and unambiguous picture of the dynamics involved. This volume is devoted to such solutions obtained using the Bethe Ansatz, and concentrates on the most important of such models, the Hubbard model. The reprints are complemented by reviews at the start of each chapter and an extensive bibliography.

The Hubbard Model

In the slightly more than thirty years since its formulation, the Hubbard model has become a central component of modern many-body physics. It provides a paradigm for strongly correlated, interacting electronic systems and offers insights not only into the general underlying mathematical structure of many-body systems but also into the experimental behavior of many novel electronic materials. In condensed matter physics, the Hubbard model represents the simplest theoret ical framework for describing interacting electrons in a crystal lattice. Containing only two explicit parameters - the ratio ("Ujt") between the Coulomb repulsion and the kinetic energy of the electrons, and the filling (p) ...

Surveys in Number Theory

Number theory has a wealth of long-standing problems, the study of which over the years has led to major developments in many areas of mathematics. This volume consists of seven significant chapters on number theory and related topics. Written by distinguished mathematicians, key topics focus on multipartitions, congruences and identities (G. Andrews), the formulas of Koshliakov and Guinand in Ramanujan's Lost Notebook (B. C. Berndt, Y. Lee, and J. Sohn), alternating sign matrices and the Weyl character formulas (D. M. Bressoud), theta functions in complex analysis (H. M. Farkas), representation functions in additive number theory (M. B. Nathanson), and mock theta functions, ranks, and Maass forms (K. Ono), and elliptic functions (M. Waldschmidt).

Symmetries and Integrability of Difference Equations

This book is devoted to a topic that has undergone rapid and fruitful development over the last few years: symmetries and integrability of difference equations and q-difference equations and the theory of special functions that occur as solutions of such equations. Techniques that have been traditionally applied to solve linear and nonlinear differential equations are now being successfully adapted and applied to discrete equations. This volume is based on contributions made by leading experts in the field during the workshop on Symmetries and Integrability of Difference Equations held Estérel, Québec, in May 1994. Giving an up-to-date review of the current status of the field, the book treats these specific topics: Lie group and quantum group symmetries of difference and q-difference equations, integrable and nonintegrable discretizations of continuous integrable systems, integrability of difference equations, discrete Painlevé property and singularity confinement, integrable mappings, applications in statistical mechanics and field theories, Yang-Baxter equations, q-special functions and discrete polynomials, and q-difference integrable systems.

Statistical Physics, High Energy, Condensed Matter and Mathematical Physics

The Conference on Statistical Physics, High Energy, Condensed Matter and Mathematical Physics was held in honor of Professor Chen-Ning Yang's 85th birthday in Singapore in Oct-Nov 2007. The conference paid tribute to the breadth and depth of Professor Yang's achievements in physics and science education since he received his Nobel Prize in Physics fifty years ago. This unique and invaluable birthday volume is a collection of the presentations made at the conference by many eminent scientists who had worked closely with him or who have been influenced to some extent by his work. It covers a wide range of topics, ranging from statistical to high energy to mathematical physics.
