As an example, we consider the quantum non-linear Schr\\\"odinger model. We derive long-distance/long-time asymptotic behavior of various two-point functions of this model. We also compute edge exponents and amplitudes characterizing the power-law behavior of dynamical response functions on the particle/hole excitation thresholds. These last results confirm predictions based on the non-linear Luttinger liquid method. Our results rely on a first principles derivation, based on the microscopic analysis of the model, without invoking, at any stage, some correspondence with a continuous field theory. Furthermore, our approach only makes use of certain general properties of the model, so that it should be applicable, with possibly minor modifications, to a wide class of (not necessarily integrable) gapless one dimensional Hamiltonians.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-06-12T19:41:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "form factor approach", "dynamical correlation functions", "critical models", "non-linear luttinger liquid method", "derive long-distance/long-time asymptotic behavior" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1742-5468/2012/09/P09001", "journal": "Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment", "year": 2012, "month": "Sep", "volume": 2012, "number": 9, "pages": 9001 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1118080, "adsabs": "2012JSMTE..09..001K" } } }
