Journal ArticleDOI
Surface exponents of the quantum XXZ, Ashkin-Teller and Potts models
TL;DR: In this article, the conformal anomaly and surface exponents of the critical quantum Ashkin-Teller and Potts chains are calculated by exploiting their relations with the mass gap amplitudes as predicted by conformal invariance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction - diffusion processes, critical dynamics and quantum chains
TL;DR: The master equation describing non-equilibrium one-dimensional problems like diffusion limited reactions or critical dynamics of classical spin systems can be written as a Schrodinger equation in which the wave function is the probability distribution and the Hamiltonian is that of a quantum chain with nearest neighbor interactions as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformal invariance, the XXZ chain and the operator content of two-dimensional critical systems
TL;DR: In this paper, Bethe ansatz equations are formulated and solved numerically for eigenstates of the XXZ Hamiltonian on a finite chain with periodic boundary conditions and with a generalized class of twisted boundary conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entanglement of Low-Energy Excitations in Conformal Field Theory
TL;DR: It is shown that the nth Rényi entropy is related to a 2n-point correlator of primary fields in CFT and this result uncovers a new link between quantum information theory and CFT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction-Diffusion Processes, Critical Dynamics and Quantum Chains
TL;DR: The master equation describing non-equilibrium one-dimensional problems like diffusion limited reactions or critical dynamics of classical spin systems can be written as a Schr\"odinger equation in which the wave function is the probability distribution and the Hamiltonian is that of a quantum chain with nearest neighbor interactions as discussed by the authors.
