On the Two-Point Correlation Function for the U_q[SU(2)] Invariant Spin One-Half Heisenberg Chain at Roots of Unity
read the original abstract
Using $U_q[SU(2)]$ tensor calculus we compute the two-point scalar operators (TPSO), their averages on the ground-state give the two-point correlation functions. The TPSOs are identified as elements of the Temperley-Lieb algebra and a recurrence relation is given for them. We have not tempted to derive the analytic expressions for the correlation functions in the general case but got some partial results. For $q=e^{i \pi/3}$, all correlation functions are (trivially) zero, for $q=e^{i \pi/4}$, they are related in the continuum to the correlation functions of left-handed and right-handed Majorana fields in the half plane coupled by the boundary condition. In the case $q=e^{i \pi/6}$, one gets the correlation functions of Mittag's and Stephen's parafermions for the three-state Potts model. A diagrammatic approach to compute correlation functions is also presented.
