Abstract

Using the fermionic basis we conjecture exact expressions for diagonal finite volume matrix elements of exponential operators and their descendants in the sinh-Gordon theory. Our expressions sum up the LeClair-Mussardo type infinite series generalized by Pozsgay for excited state expectation values. We checked our formulae against the Liouville three-point functions for small, while against Pozsgay's expansion for large volumes and found complete agreement.

Highlights

  • Integrable models are ideal testing grounds of various methods and ideas in quantum field theories

  • The LeClair-Mussardo formula [18] provides an infinite series for the exact finite volume one-point function, where each term contains the contribution of a given number of virtual particles in terms of their infinite volume connected form factors and a weight function, which is related to the Thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) densities of these particles [19]

  • The linear integral equation contains a measure, which is built up from the pseudo-energy of the excited state TBA equations and a kernel, which is a deformation of the TBA kernel

Summary

Introduction

Integrable models are ideal testing grounds of various methods and ideas in quantum field theories. The LeClair-Mussardo formula [18] provides an infinite series for the exact finite volume one-point function, where each term contains the contribution of a given number of virtual particles in terms of their infinite volume connected form factors and a weight function, which is related to the Thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) densities of these particles [19] This formula was generalized by analytical continuation for diagonal matrix elements, which replaces. There have been active work and relevant progress in deriving finite volume one-point functions for the exponential operators and their descendants in these theories [23, 24] These results were extended for diagonal matrix elements in the sine-Gordon theory [25, 26, 27] and the aim of our paper is to provide similar expressions in the sinh-Gordon theory.
