Exact solution of a one-dimensional model of hole superconductivity

Abstract
A new integrable model of a strong correlated electronic system is formulated as a model of hole superconductivity. The model is solved by using the Bethe ansatz. The critical exponents describing the decrease of correlation functions on long distances are derived. The behaviour of these correlations indicates that Cooper pairs of holes are formed in the repulsive region of the model. This conclusion is also confirmed by the calculation of the conductivity and the effective transport mass. In the attractive region, the model is a highly conducting system in which the current carriers with small effective mass are 'light fermions'.
