Abstract
The spin-spin correlation function of the 2D XY model decays as a power law at all temperatures below the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition point with a temperature dependent exponent ( is the ferromagnetic coupling strength). It is known from computer experiments that in the 2D XY model with site or bond dilution this exponent depends on concentration of removed sites/bonds as well. Knowing the slope at point , one can predict the value of the exponent for small dilution concentrations: . As it is shown in this paper, the spin-wave Hamiltonian allows to obtain exact results for this slope: and for site and for bond dilution, respectively.
