Quantum quench in the sine-Gordon model
We consider the time evolution in the repulsive sine-Gordon quantum field theory after the system is prepared in a particular class of initial states. We focus on the time dependence of the one-point function of the semi-local operator exp(iβΦ(x)/2). By using two different methods based on form-fact...

description | We consider the time evolution in the repulsive sine-Gordon quantum field theory after the system is prepared in a particular class of initial states. We focus on the time dependence of the one-point function of the semi-local operator exp(iβΦ(x)/2). By using two different methods based on form-factor expansions, we show that this expectation value decays to zero exponentially and we determine the decay rate by analytical means. Our methods generalize to other correlation functions and integrable models. |
