Abstract
We have constructed an exact map of the
one dimensional Hubbard Hamiltonian onto a system of free fermions related to the charge degrees of freedom (holons). The
spin configuration only influences the energy in so far as the fermions move in a loop which is threaded by a fictitious magnetic
flux proportional to the spin configuration's total momentum. A rather simple and physically appealing interpretation of some
of the features of the Bethe Ansatz solution is possible in this representation. We illustrated its use with a calculation of the
t/U corrections to the energy.
