Nonstandard Bethe Ansatz equations for open O(N) spin chains

Abstract

The double row transfer matrix of the open O(N) spin chain is diagonalized and the Bethe Ansatz equations are also derived by the algebraic Bethe Ansatz method including the so far missing case when the residual symmetry is O(2M+1)×O(2N−2M−1). In this case the boundary breaks the “rank” of the O(2N) symmetry leading to nonstandard Bethe Ansatz equations in which the number of Bethe roots is less than as it was in the periodic case. Therefore these cases are similar to soliton-nonpreserving reflections.

ANALYTICAL BETHE ANSATZ FOR OPEN SPIN CHAINS WITH SOLITON NONPRESERVING BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

D. Arnaudon, Anastasia Doikou, L. Frappat +2 more

We present an "algebraic treatment" of the analytical Bethe ansatz for open spin chains with soliton nonpreserving (SNP) boundary conditions. For this purpose, we introduce abstract monodromy and transfer matrices which provide an algebraic framework for the analytical Bethe ansatz. It allows us to deal with a generic [Formula: see text] open SNP spin chain possessing on each site an arbitrary representation. As a result, we obtain the Bethe equations in their full generality. The classification of finite dimensional irreducible representations for the twisted Yangians are directly linked to the calculation of the transfer matrix eigenvalues.

Analytical Bethe Ansatz for closed and open gl(n)-spin chains in any representation

D. Arnaudon, Nicolas Crampé, Anastasia Doikou +2 more

We present an "algebraic treatment" of the analytical Bethe Ansatz. For this purpose, we introduce abstract monodromy and transfer matrices which provide an algebraic framework for the analytical Bethe Ansatz. It allows us to deal with a generic gl(n)-spin chain possessing on each site an arbitrary gl(n)-representation. For open spin chains, we use the classification of the reflection matrices to treat all the diagonal boundary cases. As a result, we obtain the Bethe equations in their full generality for closed and open spin chains. The classifications of finite dimensional irreducible representations for the Yangian (closed spin chains) and for the reflection algebras (open spin chains) are directly linked to the calculation of the transfer matrix eigenvalues. As examples, we recover the usual closed and open spin chains, we treat the alternating spin chains and the closed spin chain with impurity.

General boundary conditions for the and open spin chains

D. Arnaudon, Jean Avan, Nicolas Crampé +3 more

Two types of boundary conditions (‘soliton preserving’ and ‘soliton non-preserving’) are investigated for the and open spin chains. The appropriate reflection equations are formulated and the corresponding solutions are classified. The symmetry and the Bethe ansatz equations are derived for each case. The general treatment for non-diagonal reflection matrices associated with the ‘soliton preserving’ case is worked out. The connection between the ‘soliton non-preserving’ boundary conditions and the twisted (super-) Yangians is also discussed.

Analytical Bethe ansatz for closed and opengl(Script N)-spin chains in any representation

D. Arnaudon, Nicolas Crampé, Anastasia Doikou +2 more

We present an 'algebraic treatment' of the analytical Bethe ansatz. For this purpose, we introduce abstract monodromy and transfer matrices which provide an algebraic framework for the analytical Bethe ansatz. It allows us to deal with a generic gl ( )-spin chain possessing on each site an arbitrary gl ( )-representation. For open spin chains, we use the classification of the reflection matrices to treat all the diagonal boundary cases. As a result, we obtain the Bethe equations in their full generality for closed and open spin chains. The classifications of finite-dimensional irreducible representations for the Yangian (closed spin chains) and for the reflection algebras (open spin chains) are directly linked to the calculation of the transfer matrix eigenvalues. The local Hamiltonian associated with a given integrable spin chain needs to be computed case by case. A general formula is still lacking at that point. As examples, we recover the usual Hamiltonian and Bethe equations for closed and open spin chains; we treat the alternating spin chains and the closed spin chain with an impurity. We also compute the Hamiltonian and Bethe equations for the open spin chain model used in the context of large- N QCD.

Quantum spin chain with `soliton non-preserving' boundary conditions

Anastasia Doikou

We consider the case of an integrable quantum spin chain with `soliton non-preserving' boundary conditions. This is the first time that such boundary conditions have been considered in the spin chain framework. We construct the transfer matrix of the model, we study its symmetry and we find explicit expressions for its eigenvalues. Moreover, we derive a new set of Bethe ansatz equations by means of the analytical Bethe ansatz method.

Algebraic Bethe Ansatz for O(2N) sigma models with integrable diagonal boundaries

Tamás Gombor, L. Palla

The finite volume problem of O(2N) sigma models with integrable diagonal boundaries on a finite interval is investigated. The double row transfer matrix is diagonalized by Algebraic Bethe Ansatz. The boundary Bethe Yang equations for the particle rapidities and the accompanying Bethe Ansatz equations are derived.
