TL;DR: The quantum inverse scattering method for solving nonlinear equations of evolution, the quantum theory of magnets, the method of commuting transfer-matrices in classical statistical mechanics, and factorizable scattering theory as discussed by the authors emerged as a natural development of the various directions in mathematical physics.
Abstract: Publisher Summary
This chapter focuses on the quantization of lie groups and lie algebras. The Algebraic Bethe Ansatz—the quantum inverse scattering method—emerges as a natural development of the various directions in mathematical physics: the inverse scattering method for solving nonlinear equations of evolution, the quantum theory of magnets, the method of commuting transfer-matrices in classical statistical mechanics, and factorizable scattering theory. The chapter discusses quantum formal groups, a finite-dimensional example, an infinite-dimensional example, and reviews the deformation theory and quantum groups.

TL;DR: The first rigorous example of an isotropic model in such a phase is presented in this paper, where the Hamiltonian has an exactSO(3) symmetry and is translationally invariant, but the model has a unique ground state and exponential decay of the correlation functions in the ground state.
Abstract: Haldane predicted that the isotropic quantum Heisenberg spin chain is in a “massive” phase if the spin is integral. The first rigorous example of an isotropic model in such a phase is presented. The Hamiltonian has an exactSO(3) symmetry and is translationally invariant, but we prove the model has a unique ground state, a gap in the spectrum of the Hamiltonian immediately above the ground state and exponential decay of the correlation functions in the ground state. Models in two and higher dimension which are expected to have the same properties are also presented. For these models we construct an exact ground state, and for some of them we prove that the two-point function decays exponentially in this ground state. In all these models exact ground states are constructed by using valence bonds.

TL;DR: The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results as discussed by the authors, and the major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field.
Abstract: The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results. It has moved into a central place in condensed matter studies. Statistical physics, and more specifically, the theory of transitions between states of matter, more or less defines what we know about 'everyday' matter and its transformations. The major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field, and for graduate students and others wishing to obtain reliable information on important recent developments.

TL;DR: In this article, the eigenwert problem involved in the corresponding computation for a long strip crystal of finite width, joined straight to itself around a cylinder, is solved by direct product decomposition; in the special case $n=\ensuremath{\infty}$ an integral replaces a sum.
Abstract: The partition function of a two-dimensional "ferromagnetic" with scalar "spins" (Ising model) is computed rigorously for the case of vanishing field. The eigenwert problem involved in the corresponding computation for a long strip crystal of finite width ($n$ atoms), joined straight to itself around a cylinder, is solved by direct product decomposition; in the special case $n=\ensuremath{\infty}$ an integral replaces a sum. The choice of different interaction energies ($\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}J,\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}$) in the (0 1) and (1 0) directions does not complicate the problem. The two-way infinite crystal has an order-disorder transition at a temperature $T={T}_{c}$ given by the condition $sinh(\frac{2J}{k{T}_{c}}) sinh(\frac{2{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}}{k{T}_{c}})=1.$ The energy is a continuous function of $T$; but the specific heat becomes infinite as $\ensuremath{-}log |T\ensuremath{-}{T}_{c}|$. For strips of finite width, the maximum of the specific heat increases linearly with $log n$. The order-converting dual transformation invented by Kramers and Wannier effects a simple automorphism of the basis of the quaternion algebra which is natural to the problem in hand. In addition to the thermodynamic properties of the massive crystal, the free energy of a (0 1) boundary between areas of opposite order is computed; on this basis the mean ordered length of a strip crystal is ${(\mathrm{exp} (\frac{2J}{\mathrm{kT}}) tanh(\frac{2{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}}{\mathrm{kT}}))}^{n}.$

TL;DR: In this article, a Methode angegeben, um die Eigenfunktionen nullter and Eigenwerte erster Naherung (im Sinne des Approximationsverfahrens von London and Heitler) fur ein „eindimensionales Metall“ zu berechnen, bestehend aus einer linearen Kette von sehr vielen Atomen, von denen jedes auser abgeschlossenen Schalen eins-Elektron with Spin besitz
Abstract: Es wird eine Methode angegeben, um die Eigenfunktionen nullter und Eigenwerte erster Naherung (im Sinne des Approximationsverfahrens von London und Heitler) fur ein „eindimensionales Metall“ zu berechnen, bestehend aus einer linearen Kette von sehr vielen Atomen, von denen jedes auser abgeschlossenen Schalen eins-Elektron mit Spin besitzt. Neben den „Spinwellen“ von Bloch treten Eigenfunktionen auf, bei denen die nach einer Richtung weisenden Spins moglichst an dicht benachbarten Atomen zu sitzen suchen; diese durften fur die Theorie des Ferromagnetismus von Wichtigkeit sein.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ground-state energy as a function of γ was derived for all γ, except γ = 0, and it was shown that Bogoliubov's perturbation theory is valid when γ is small.
Abstract: A gas of one-dimensional Bose particles interacting via a repulsive delta-function potential has been solved exactly. All the eigenfunctions can be found explicitly and the energies are given by the solutions of a transcendental equation. The problem has one nontrivial coupling constant, γ. When γ is small, Bogoliubov’s perturbation theory is seen to be valid. In this paper, we explicitly calculate the ground-state energy as a function of γ and show that it is analytic for all γ, except γ=0. In Part II, we discuss the excitation spectrum and show that it is most convenient to regard it as a double spectrum—not one as is ordinarily supposed.
