Incommensurability and edge states in the one-dimensional S=1 bilinear-biquadratic model

Commensurate-incommensurate change on the one-dimensional S=1 bilinear-biquadratic model (${\cal H}(\alpha)=\sum_i {{\bf S}i\cdot {\bf S}{i+1} +\alpha ({\bf S}i\cdot{\bf S}{i+1})^2}$) is examined. The gapped Haldane phase has two subphases (the commensurate Haldane subphase and the incommensurate Haldane subphase) and the commensurate-incommensurate change point (the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki point, $\alpha =1\mathrm{/}3$). There have been two different analytical predictions about the static structure factor in the neighborhood of this point. By using the S{\o}rensen-Affleck prescription, these static structure factors are related to the Green functions, and also to the energy gap behaviors. Numerical calculations support one of the predictions. Accordingly, the commensurate-incommensurate change is recognized as a motion of a pair of poles in the complex plane.
