Spinor-inverted solution to thirring model and its generalization to U(n) symmetry

Abstract

Using the properties of massless free Fermi fields in (1−1) dimensions, it is shown that the spinor inverted form of Klaiber's operator solution to Thirring model is also a scale-invariant solution of the model. But unlike the former it admits a nonvanishing SU(n) current coupling in the generalization of the model to include U(n) symmetry. The value of this coupling constant is fixed and equals Dashen-Frishman number -4 π/(n+1). The general form of the 2m-point function is given and operates product expansions are exhibited in terms of composite local operators. Scale dimensions of all the bilinear and quadrilinear local operators with U(n) symmetry are computed and are found to depend on n. However, different parts of a composite local operator belonging to different irreducible U(n) representations have the same dimension.
