Long time thermal asymptotics of nonlinear Luttinger liquid from inverse scattering

Abstract

I derive a Fredholm determinant for the thermal correlator of vertex operators with a conformally invariant density matrix and nonlinear time evolution. Using the method of nonlinear steepest descent I find the long time asymptotics at finite temperature. The asymptotics display exponentially small corrections in temperature to the finite temperature mobile impurity phenomenology.
