Exact ground state properties of the t – J model with open boundary conditions
Abstract
Abstract We develop a new method to study the ground state energy of the one-dimensional supersymmetric t – J model with open boundary conditions. The eigenvalues of the nested transfer matrix are characterized by the zero roots of corresponding polynomials instead of the T – Q relation and Bethe roots. The distribution of zero roots at the ground state is studied. We find that the zero roots form two-string pairs, finite pure real and pure imaginary boundary strings. Based on the distribution of zero roots, we obtain the ground state energy of the system in the thermodynamic limit.
