Studies of Integrable One-Dimensional Quantum Systems
Abstract
dc:description.abstractIn this thesis, I use the Bethe Ansatz (BA) to study various one-dimensional models. I first go through some background on the BA (both the coordinate and algebraic forms). I start the study by using the BA to compare bound state occurrences between the 2-particle XXZ, Bose–Hubbard, and Fermi– Hubbard models. In the next chapter, I introduce ‘quenches’ and use the BA in order to calculate quench overlaps in the Lieb–Liniger model. In the final chapter, I introduce the spatial von Neumann bipartite entanglement entropy and use the BA in order to calculate this entropy in the Lieb–Liniger model.
