Generalised Onsager Algebra in Quantum Lattice Models

Abstract

The Onsager algebra is one of the cornerstones of exactly solvable models in statistical mechanics. Starting from the generalised Clifford algebra, we demonstrate its relations to the graph Temperley--Lieb algebra, and a generalisation of the Onsager algebra. We present a series of quantum lattice models as representations of the generalised Clifford algebra, possessing the structure of a special type of the generalised Onsager algebra [1]. The integrability of those models is presented, analogous to the free fermionic eight-vertex model. We also mention further extensions of the models and physical properties related to the generalised Onsager algebras, hinting at a general framework that includes families of quantum lattice models possessing the structure of the generalised Onsager algebras.

On the algebraic approach to cubic lattice Potts models

Srinandan Dasmahapatra, Paul Martin

We consider Diagram algebras, DG(Q) (generalized Temperley-Lieb algebras) defined for a large class of graphs G, including those of relevance for cubic lattice Potts models, and study their structure for generic Q. We find that these algebras are too large to play the precisely analogous role in three dimensions to that played by the Temperley-Lieb algebras for generic Q in the planar case. We outline measures to extract the quotient algebra that would illuminate the physics of three dimensional Potts models. PACS: 75.10.H 1

Temperley-Lieb lattice models arising from quantum groups

Murray T. Batchelor, Atsuo Kuniba

The authors construct families of solvable quantum spin chains, vertex and interactions round a face (IRF) models from representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra associated with the quantum groups U q (X n ) for X n =A 1 , B n , C n and D n . They determine a correlation measuring order in the IRF models via the fusion rule in the level l X n (1) . Wess-Zumino-Witten model.

Solving models with generalized free fermions I: Algebras and eigenstates

Kohei Fukai, Balázs Pozsgay, István Vona

We study quantum spin chains solvable via hidden free fermionic structures. We study the algebras behind such models, establishing connections to the mathematical literature of the so-called ``graph-Clifford'' or ``quasi-Clifford'' algebras. We also introduce the ``defining representation'' for such algebras, and show that this representation actually coincides with the terms of the Hamiltonian in two relevant models: the XY model and the ``free fermions in disguise'' model of Fendley. Afterwards we study a particular anti-symmetric combination of commuting Hamiltonians; this is performed in a model independent way. We show that for this combination there exists a reference state, and few body eigenstates can be created by the fermionic operators. Concrete application is presented in the case of the ``free fermions in disguise'' model.

Solvable eight-vertex model on an arbitrary planar lattice

R. J. Baxter

Abstract Any planar set of intersecting straight lines forms a four-coordinated graph, or ‘lattice’, provided no three lines intersect at a point. For any such lattice an eight-vertex model can be constructed. Provided the interactions satisfy certain constraints (which are in general temperature-dependent), the model can be solved exactly in the thermodynamic limit, its local properties at a particular site being those of a related square lattice. A particular case is a solvable model on the Kagomé lattice. It is shown that this model includes as special cases many of the models in statistical mechanics that have been solved exactly, notably the square, triangular and honeycomb Ising models, and the square eight-vertex model. Some remarkable equivalences between correlations on different lattices are also established.

CONSTRUCTION OF INTEGRABLE QUANTUM LATTICE MODELS THROUGH SKLYANIN-LIKE ALGEBRAS

A. KUNDU, B. Basu Mallick

A systematic approach for generation of integrable quantum lattice models exploiting the underlying Uq(2) quantum group structure as well as its multiparameter generalization is presented. We find an extension of trigonometric Sklyanin algebra and also its deformation through "symmetry breaking transformation," which after consistent bosonization (or q-bosonization) construct a series of integrable lattice models. A novel quantum solvable derivative NLS, a relativistic Toda chain and a lattice model involving q-oscillators warrant special mention. As an added advantage, along with the integrable models the corresponding quantum R-matrices are also specified.
