چکیده
We formulate the notion of parity for the periodic XXZ spin chain within the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. We also propose an expression for the eigenvalues of the charge conjugation operator. We use these discrete symmetries to help classify low-lying Sz = 0 states in the critical regime, and we give a direct computation of the S matrix.

Discrete Symmetries and S Matrix of the XXZ Chain
We formulate the notion of parity for the periodic XXZ spin chain within the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. We also propose an expression for the eigenvalues of the charge conjugation operator. We use these discrete symmetries to help classify low-lying Sz = 0 states in the critical regime, and we give a direct computation of the S matrix.
متن کاملExact solution for the spin-s XXZ quantum chain with non-diagonal twists
We study integrable vertex models and quantum spin chains with toroidal boundary conditions. An interesting class of such boundaries is associated with non-diagonal twist matrices. For such models there are no trivial reference states upon which a Bethe ansatz calculation can be constructed, in contrast to the well-known case of periodic boundary conditions. In this paper we show how the transf...
متن کاملSymmetries and Unification
Symmetries concerning the ordinary coordinate spacetime and internal spacetime are discussed. A possible unification model of elec-troweak, strong and gravitational interactions is briefly described. Symmetry has played a crucial role in physics. I first learned the importance of symmetries in physics was from the lecture talks given by professor C.S. Wu when I was a student in the Department o...
متن کاملDiscrete Symmetries for Spinor Field in de Sitter Space
Discrete symmetries, parity, time reversal, antipodal, and charge conjugation transformations for spinor field in de Sitter space, are presented in the ambient space notation, i.e. in a coordinate independent way. The PT and PCT transformations are also discussed in this notation. The five-current density is studied and their transformation under the discrete symmetries is discussed. Proposed P...

We propose construction of a unique and definite metric (η +), time-reversal operator (T) and an inner product such that the pseudo-Hermitian matrix Hamiltonians are C, PT, CPT invariant and PT(CPT)-norm is indefinite (definite). Here, P and C denote the generalized symmetries : parity and charge-conjugation respectively. The limitations of the other current approaches have been brought out.
