Description
We evaluate the dynamic structure factor $S(q,ω)$ of interacting one-dimensional spinless fermions with a nonlinear dispersion relation. The combined effect of the nonlinear dispersion and of the interactions leads to new universal features of $S(q,ω)$. The sharp peak $S\propto qδ(ω-uq)$, characteristic for the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, broadens up; $S(q,ω)$ for a fixed $q$ becomes finite at arbitrarily large $ω$. The main spectral weight, however, is confined to a narrow frequency interval of the width $δω\sim q^2/m$. At the boundaries of this interval the structure factor exhibits power-law singularities with exponents depending on the interaction strength and on the wave number $q$.
