Long-range to the Rescue of Yang-Baxter II
Abstract
We study the spin chain model capturing the one-loop spectral problem of the simplest superconformal quiver gauge theory in four dimensions, obtained from a marginal deformation of the orbifold of SYM. In Part I of this work \cite{Bozkurt:2024tpz}, we solved for the three-magnon eigenvector and found that it exhibits long-range behavior, despite the Hamiltonian being of nearest-neighbor type. In this paper, we extend the analysis to the four-magnon sector and construct explicit eigenvectors. These solutions are compatible with both untwisted and twisted periodic boundary conditions, and they allow for the computation of anomalous dimensions of single-trace operators of the gauge theory. We validate our results by direct comparison with brute-force diagonalization of the spin chain Hamiltonian. Additionally, we uncover a novel structural relation between eigenstates with different numbers of excitations. In particular, we show that the four-magnon eigenstates can be written in terms of the three-magnon solution, revealing a recursive pattern and hinting at a deeper underlying structure. Lastly, the four-magnon solution obeys an infinite tower of Yang-Baxter equations, as was the case for the three-magnon solution.
