Spin chains and Yangians

W.L.N. Stronks

In this thesis we theoretically investigate the close relation between spin chains and Yangians. First, we investigate the Haldane-Shastry model, which symmetry algebra is a representation of the Yangian. We show this in full detail for the spin-1/2 model. We also give an argument why a spin-1 chain with Yangian symmetry cannot exist. \nAfter that, we turn to integrable spin chains which are constructed using the quantum inverse scattering method. Using this method, an integrable spin chain can be constructed from each so called R-matrix, which is a solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. Our main result is the construction of an R-matrix that is invariant under the adjoint representation of SU(n), which is found using an intertwining operator for the corresponding Yangian representation. The integrable\nspin chain that corresponds to this R-matrix is non-Hermitian, making its physical interpretation unclear. These results have been published recently as a preprint under arXiv:1606.02516. \nFinally, integrable spin chains with defects are studied. We present the Hamiltonian for the Heisenberg model and the Babujian-Takhtajan model with defects, such that these models keep there integrability while staying Lie algebra invariant.

Q-operators, Yangian invariance and the quantum inverse scattering method

Rouven Frassek

Inspired by the integrable structures appearing in weakly coupled planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory, we study Q-operators and Yangian invariants of rational integrable spin chains. We review the quantum inverse scattering method along with the Yang-Baxter equation which is the key relation in this systematic approach to study integrable models. Our main interest concerns rational integrable spin chains and lattice models. We recall the relation among them and how they can be solved using Bethe ansatz methods incorporating so-called Q-functions. In order to remind the reader how the Yangian emerges in this context, an overview of its so-called RTT-realization is provided. The main part is based on the author's original publications. Firstly, we construct Q-operators whose eigenvalues yield the Q-functions for rational homogeneous spin chains. The Q-operators are introduced as traces over certain monodromies of R-operators. Our construction allows us to derive the hierarchy of commuting Q-operators and the functional relations among them. We study how the nearest-neighbor Hamiltonian and in principle also higher local charges can be extracted from the Q-operators directly. Secondly, we formulate the Yangian invariance condition, also studied in relation to scattering amplitudes of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory, in the RTT-realization. We find that Yangian invariants can be interpreted as special eigenvectors of certain inhomogeneous spin chains. This allows us to apply the algebraic Bethe ansatz and derive the corresponding Bethe equations that are relevant to construct the invariants. We examine the connection between the Yangian invariant spin chain eigenstates whose components can be understood as partition functions of certain 2d lattice models and tree-level scattering amplitudes of the four-dimensional gauge theory. Finally, we conclude and discuss some future directions.
