Sine-square deformation of solvable spin chains and conformal field theories

Abstract: Abstract. We study solvable spin chains, one-dimensional massless Dirac fermions, and conformal field theories (CFTs) with sine-square deformation (SSD), in which the Hamiltonian density is modulated by the function f (x) = sin 2 (πx/ℓ), where x is the position and ℓ is the length of the system. For the XY chain and the transverse field Ising chain at criticality, it is shown that the ground state of an open system with SSD is identical to that of a uniform chain with periodic boundary conditions. The same hol… Show more

“…Another interesting class of deformations are Möbius deformations and the sine-square deformation (SSD). [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Starting from the uniform system defined on a spatial circle of circumference L, the Möbius evolution is given by…”

“…It serves as one of the boundary conditions [22][23][24][25], as well as works as a real-space renormalization scheme [26]. It also reveals itself as one of a low energy effective Hamiltonian in a 2D conformal field theory [27][28][29]. Moreover, adiabatic connections between the uniform and SSD Hamiltonian is guaranteed [30].…”

“…We closely follow Ref. [22] to show that the ground state |ψ G of H QIM (g) with even (odd) number of sites has an even (odd) fermion parity for g > 0. Using the basis in which σ x j is diagonalized, i.e., | → j = (| ↑ j + | ↓ j )/ √ 2, | ← j = (| ↑ j − | ↓ j )/ √ 2, all of the offdiagonal elements of H QIM are nonpositive and satisfy the connectivity condition (note that σ z j | → / ← j = | ← / → j ).…”
