Exact Drude weight for the one-dimensional Hubbard model at finite temperatures

The Drude weight for the one-dimensional Hubbard model is investigated at finite temperatures by using the Bethe ansatz solution. Evaluating finite-size corrections to the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations, we obtain the formula for the Drude weight as the response of the system to an external gauge potential. We perform low-temperature expansions of the Drude weight in the case of half-filling as well as away from half-filling, which clearly distinguish the Mott-insulating state from the metallic state.
