Exact ground state of the sine-square deformed XY spin chain

Abstract

We study the sine-square deformed quantum XY chain with open boundary conditions, in which the interaction strength at the position $x$ in the chain of length $L$ is proportional to the function $f_x={\sin }^2[\pi /L(x-1/2)]$. The model can be mapped onto a free spinless fermion model with site-dependent hopping amplitudes and on-site potentials via the Jordan-Wigner transformation. Although the single-particle eigenstates of this system cannot be obtained in closed form, it is shown that the many-body ground state is identical to that of the uniform XY chain with periodic boundary conditions. This proves a conjecture of Hikihara and Nishino [Hikihara T and Nishino T 2011 {\it Phys. Rev. B} \textbf{83} 060414(R)] based on numerical evidence.
