dc.descriptionExact low-temperature asymptotic behavior of boundary contribution to specific heat and susceptibility in the one-dimensional spin-1/2 XXZ model with exchange anisotropy 1/2 < Δ\le 1 is analytically obtained using the Abelian bosonization method. The boundary spin susceptibility is divergent in the low-temperature limit. This singular behavior is caused by the first-order contribution of a bulk leading irrelevant operator to boundary free energy. The result is confirmed by numerical simulations of finite-size systems. The anomalous boundary contributions in the spin isotropic case are universal.
