Topological Monodromy of an Integrable Heisenberg Spin Chain
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate topological properties of a completely integrable system on S× S × S which was recently shown to have a Lagrangian fiber diffeomorphic to RP 3 not displaceable by a Hamiltonian isotopy [Oakley J., Ph.D. Thesis, University of Georgia, 2014]. This system can be viewed as integrating the determinant, or alternatively, as integrating a classical Heisenberg spin chain. We show that the system has non-trivial topological monodromy and relate this to the geometric interpretation of its integrals.

On the quantum inverse scattering problem
A general method for solving the so-called quantum inverse scattering problem (namely the reconstruction of local quantum (field) operators in term of the quantum monodromy matrix satisfying a Yang-Baxter quadratic algebra governed by an R-matrix) for a large class of lattice quantum integrable models is given. The principal requirement being the initial condition (R(0) = P , the permutation op...
متن کاملOn the M-xx Equation 1
Some exact solutions of the (2+1)-dimensional integrable classical continuous isotropic Heisenberg spin chain (the M-XX equation) are obtained by using Hirota's method. These solutions are characterized by an integer topological charge.
متن کاملExact S Matrices for Integrable Quantum Spin Chains Luca
We begin with a review of the antiferromagnetic spin 1/2 Heisenberg chain. In particular, we show that the model has particle-like excitations with spin 1/2, and we compute the exact bulk S matrix. We then review our recent work which generalizes these results. We first consider an integrable alternating spin 1/2 spin 1 chain. In addition to having excitations with spin 1/2, this model also has...
متن کاملIntegrable Su(2)-invariant Spin Chains and the Haldane Conjecture
We perform a systematic exact algebraic search for integrable spin-S chains which are isotropic in spin space, i.e. are su(2)-invariant. The families of spin chains found for S ≤ 13.5 support recent arguments in favour of the complete classification of all such integrable chains. The integrable families of spin chains are discussed in the light of the conjectured spin-dependent properties of th...
متن کاملExact Solution of Long-Range Interacting Spin Chains with Boundaries
We consider integrable models of the Haldane-Shastry type with open boundary conditions. We define monodromy matrices, obeying the reflection equation, which generate the symmetries of these models. Using a map to the Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonian of BC type, we derive the spectrum and the highest weight eigenstates. 1/95 * Member of the CNRS † Laboratoire de la Direction des Sciences de la M...
