Progress in understanding quantum spin systems in condensed matter physics can be greatly enhanced by the knowledge and understanding obtained from exactly solved models. This project will apply new techniques from the theory of exactly solved models to calculate the magnetic and thermal properties of quantum spin systems. The outcomes will include progress at the forefront of theoretical physics, with direct comparison with experimental results and strong predictive power for new experiments. The project will establish strong research links between Australia and Japan.Read moreRead less
Low-dimensional quantum systems. The theory of integrable systems of statistical mechanics and quantum field theory is currently one of most rapidly developing and fascinating subjects in theoretical physics and mathematics.
It allows to obtain an exact description of strongly-interacting quantum systems in one or two space dimensions and provides fundamental tools for understanding of critical phenomena and physics of small systems like quantum wires, carbon nanotubes and Josephson junctions ....Low-dimensional quantum systems. The theory of integrable systems of statistical mechanics and quantum field theory is currently one of most rapidly developing and fascinating subjects in theoretical physics and mathematics.
It allows to obtain an exact description of strongly-interacting quantum systems in one or two space dimensions and provides fundamental tools for understanding of critical phenomena and physics of small systems like quantum wires, carbon nanotubes and Josephson junctions. The project addresses two particular problems in this field: the three-dimensional lattice model with continuous spins and calculation of form factors in a two-dimensional massive field theory with a supersymmetry.
