Conformal invariance and the Heisenberg model with arbitrary spin

The eigenspectrum of the critical anisotropic Heisenberg model (or XXZ model), with arbitrary spin S in its disordered-ferroelectric regime (0\ensuremath{\le}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\le}\ensuremath{\pi}/2S) is solved by the Bethe-Ansatz method. The amplitudes of the leading finite-size corrections are calculated analytically and numerically. Using conformal invariance we give exact results for the conformal anomaly and scaling dimensions. Our results indicate that, for all spin S, the critical behavior is governed by a conformal field theory with central charge c=1.
