Abstract

The eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the generalized RSOS model are exactly calculated. From the consideration of the thermodynamics of the quantum system on the one-dimensional chain connected with the RSOS model, we calculate the central charges of the effective conformal field theories describing the critical behavior of the model in different regimes.

Restricted solid-on-solid models connected with simply laced algebras and conformal field theory

Vladimir V. Bazhanov, Nicolai Reshetikhin

The spectrum of row-to-row transfer matrices in critical RSOS models of A n type is described explicitly. The thermodynamics of the quantum one-dimensional RSOS model is used to compute values of central charges in corresponding conformal field theories. Generalisation of these results on RSOS related to arbitrary simply laced algebras is discussed.

Further solutions of critical ABF RSOS models

Yu-Kui Zhou

The restricted SOS model of Andrews, Baxter and Forrester (1984) has been studied. The finite size corrections to the eigenvalue spectra of the transfer matrix of the model with a more general crossing parameter have been calculated. Therefore the conformal weights and the central charges of the non-unitary or unitary minimal conformal field have been extracted from the finite size corrections.

Thermodynamics of the criticalRSOS(q1,q2;q) model

Anastasia Doikou

The thermodynamic Bethe ansatz method is employed for the study of the integrable critical RSOS ( q 1 , q 2 ; q ) model. The high and low temperature behaviours are investigated, and the central charge of the effective conformal field theory is derived. The obtained central charge is expressed as the sum of the central charges of two generalized coset models.
