Abstract

Abstract Starting from a quantum dilogarithm over a Pontryagin self-dual LCA group A , we construct an operator solution of the Yang–Baxter equation generalizing the solution of the Faddeev–Volkov model. Based on a specific choice of a subgroup and by using the Weil transformation, we also give a new non-operator interpretation of the Yang–Baxter relation. That allows us to construct a lattice QFT-model of IRF-type with gauge invariance under independent B -translations of local ‘spin’ variables.

YANG-BAXTER ALGEBRAS, INTEGRABLE THEORIES AND QUANTUM GROUPS

Hector J. de Vega

The Yang-Baxter-Zamolodchikov-Faddeev (YBZF) algebras and their many applications are the subject of this reivew. I start by the solvable lattice statistical models constructed from YBZF algebras. All two-dimensional integrable vertex models follow in this way and are solvable via Bethe Ansatz (BA) and their generalizations. The six-vertex model solution and its q(2q−1) vertex generalization including its nested BA construction are exposed. YBZF algebras and their associated physical models are classified in terms of simple Lie algebras. It is shown how these lattice models yield both solvable massive quantum field theories (QFT) and conformal models in appropriated scaling (continuous) limits within the lattice light-cone approach. The method of finite-size calculations from the BA is described as well as its applications to derive the conformal properties of integrable lattice models. It is conjectured that all integrable QFT and conformal models follow in a scaling limit from these YBZF algebras. A discussion on braid and quantum groups concludes this review.

The Yang-Baxter Equation for the Chiral Potts Model and Integrable Parafermions

Zhao Zhang

A new type of Yang-Baxter equation (YBE) for $R$-operators depending on three spectral parameters is constructed from the star-triangle relation for the chiral Potts model. As the $Z_N$ symmetric generalization to the Ising model, its Boltzmann weights are known to depend on two variables describing a curve with genus larger than one for $N>2$, except for the self-dual point corresponding to the Fateev-Zamolodchikov chain. Combined with the fact that quantum Hamiltonians of edge-type models such as the Ising model contain both nearest-neighbor interaction and onsite potential terms, this leads naturally to an additional spectral parameter in the associated $R$-operator. The construction extends the edge-vertex correspondence of solvable lattice models, and provides a bridge between the Bazhanov-Stroganov four-parameter $R$-matrix---realized as an intertwiner of cyclic representations of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ at a root of unity---and Shastry's two-parameter $R$-operator obtained from the decorated YBE.

Algebraic aspect and construction of Lax operators in quantum integrable systems

B Basu-mallick, Anjan Kundu

An algebraic construction more general and intimately connected with that of Faddeev1, along with its application for generating different classes of quantum integrable models are summarised to complement the recent results of ref. 1 ( L.D. Faddeev, Int. J. Mod. Phys. A10, 1845 (1995)). 1 A significant portion of an excellent recent review by Faddeev 1 is devoted to an important result showing deep relation between the Yang–Baxter equation and the quantum group. We are delighted to note that a scheme for systematic construction of the Lax operators through Yang–Baxterisation of the Faddeev–Reshetikhin–Takhtajan (FRT) algebra persued by us over the last few years 2,3 has an intimate connection with this approach. In fact our formulation gives a more general framework allowing construction of a wide range of Lax operators of lattice models and recovers the corresponding result of ref 1 related to Uqsl(2) as a particular case. Another convincing demonstration of the usefulness of our approach is that, the well known Lax operator of the lattice Liouville model 4 as well as the recently discovered 5 nontrivial spectral parameter dependent variant of it can be constructed directly and easily from our general form,

A comment on the solutions of the generalized Faddeev–Volkov model

Mehmet Dede

We consider two recent solutions of the generalized Faddeev–Volkov model, which is an exactly solvable Ising-type lattice spin model. The first solution is obtained by using the noncompact quantum dilogarithm, and the second one is constructed in a recent study via the gauge/YBE correspondence. We show that the weight functions of these models obtained by different techniques are the same upto a constant.

Yang-Baxter Relations in Terms ofn-jSymbols ofsuq(2) Algebra

Masao Nomura

A trigonometric function parametrization of Yang-Baxter (Y-B) relations is described in terms of n - j symbols of su q (2), a deformation of su (2). The formalism starts with deduction of the Y-B relation for the IRF (interaction round a face) model of su q (2) from a general operator relation for the vertex model. The relation obtained for the IRF model is transformed into the Y-B relation for the vertex model using the property that the 3- j symbol is an asymptotic limit of the 6- j symbol. A class of very general solutions to Y-B equations is also presented. This solution of the IRF model with infinite rapidity parameters is linked to a symmetry of the 12- j symbol of the second kind.

New R(x) -Matrix, L(x) -Operator and Quantum Algebra in Spin Model

Mo‐Lin Ge, Xu‐Feng Liu, Kang Xue

New solution of Yang-Bax ter equation for spin-1 ⊗ spin- tensorial space is derived based on the direct calculation and extended Yang-Baxterization prescription. It contains the standard solution as a special case. By employing Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan approach we give the correspondent quantum algebraic structure. The Yang-Baxterization of the L -operator is also made explicitly.
