Free field approach to diagonalization of boundary transfer matrix : recent advances
Takeo Kojima
Abstract
We diagonalize infinitely many commuting operators T B ( z ). We call these operators T B ( z ) the boundary transfer matrix associated with the quantum group and the elliptic quantum group. The boundary transfer matrix is related to the solvable model with a boundary. When we diagonalize the boundary transfer matrix, we can calculate the correlation functions for the solvable model with a boundary. We review the free field approach to diagonalization of the boundary transfer matrix T B ( z ) associated with U q ( A (2) 2 ) and . We construct the free field realizations of the eigenvectors of the boundary transfer matrix TB ( z ). This paper includes new unpublished formula of the eigenvector for U q ( A (2) 2 ). It is thought that this diagonalization method can be extended to more general quantum group U q ( g ) and elliptic quantum group U q,p ( g ).
