Exact solution of the infinite-U Hubbard problem and other models in one   dimension
  An interacting spin-fermion model is exactly solved on an open chain. In a certain representation, it is the nearest-neighbor Hubbard model in the limit of infinite $U$ (local interaction). Exact solution of its complete energy eigen-spectrum is accomplished by introducing a unitary transformation which maps the original problem to a tight-binding model of the fermions only. Physically, the exact solution implies the absence of Nagaoka ferromagnetism in the ground state for arbitrary electron densities. The present method solves a class of very general models exactly. Few more problems are discussed as an application of this unitary transform method.
