Abstract
The commensurate-incommensurate (C-IC) phase transition in the one dimensional quantum sine-Gordon model at zero temperature is exactly solved with the use of the Bethe ansatz technique for the lattice massive Thirring model. The energy difference between C and IC phases is derived based on the same ground state which is valid in the whole parameter region. It is due to the fact that there is no change in the ground state of the lattice massive Thirring model even in the strongly repulsive region in contrast to the continuum massive Thirring model even in the strongly repulsive region in contrast to the continuum massive Thirring model. It is proved in the whole parameter region that the IC phase can be realized with the soliton density proportional to\(\sqrt { - E_s } \) (Es: formation energy of soliton), whenEs becomes negative.
