J-M. Maillet, Ecole Normale Superieur, Lyon Asymptotic behavior of correlation functions from Bethe ansatz : the XXZ chain Abstract : We describe a method to derive, from first principles, the long- distance asymptotic behavior of correlation functions of integrable models in the framework of the algebraic Bethe ansatz. We apply this approach to the longitudinal spin-spin correlation function of the XXZ Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain (with magnetic field) in the disordered regime. At leading order, the results confirm the Luttinger liquid and conformal field theory predictions.
