One-dimensional itinerant ferromagnets
Bosons in 1D carrying spin (1/2 for simplicity)
Theorem: if the interaction term is rotationally invariant than the ground
state is ferromagnetic
Excitations: longitudinal spin waves (linear dispersion = plasmons)

Dynamical structure factor for
Exited states are made by one magnon and arbitrary number of plasmons
(particle-hole pairs or density fluctuations)
Similar to a polaron problem
Effective model: magnon carries momentum , its dispersion has a
minimum around . Plasmons have a linear dispersion.
Effective Hamiltonian:
Free plasmons = Luttinger Liquid
Plasmons linearly coupled
to the magnon
Effective theory (indegrability not needed)

Remarks
Edge exponents were calculated for the Yang-Gaudin model using a
combination of the Bethe Ansatz and effective theory approach
(so far there is only one – Calodgero-Sutherland – model, whose edge exponents are
calculated from the Bethe Ansatz exclusively)
The effective theory is Luttinger Liquid plus a mobile impurity, not just a
Luttinger Liquid, since the dispersion is quadratic at small momentum
There is a possibility to extract the edge exponents from the analysis
(experiment) in the real space & time.
