Combinatorial Solution of One-Dimensional Quantum Systems

Marchetti, Domingos H. U. · Rodrigues, Claudio F. S.

Original · EN

We give a self-contained exposition of the combinatorial solution of quantum mechanical systems of coupled spins on a one-dimensional lattice. Using Trotter formula, we write the partition function as a generating function of a spanning subgraph of a two-dimensional lattice and solve the combinatorial problem by the method of Pfaffians provided the weights satisfy the so-called free fermion condition. The free energy and the ground state energy as a function of the inverse temperature, couplings J and magnetic fields h, for the XY model in a transverse field with period p=1 and 2, is then obtained.
