Abstract

We consider an exactly solvable two-band model of electrons moving in one dimension and interacting with a $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function spin-exchange potential. The relative population of the bands is determined by the band splitting, the magnetic field, and the temperature. The interaction leads to the formation of spin-triplet bound states of the Cooper type (hard-core bosons that do not condensate and exist at all temperatures). In the zero-field ground state the spin-triplet states are effectively free bosons. A threshold band splitting is required to break up a triplet pair. The low-temperature and finite size properties are discussed in the context of anomalous superconducting and antiferromagnetic fluctuations.
