Integrable quantum chain and the representation of the quantum group SUq(2)

Abstract

The authors discuss the XXZ spin chain with certain boundary terms and the representation of quantum group SU q (2). It is shown that Bethe ansatz states are highest-weight states of SU q (2). With a generic q they construct the irreducible representations of the quantum group. For q being a root of unity, they show that there are new Bethe ansatz states, which coincide with null states of SU q (2). By taking certain limits the authors can derive the state mod b), which is necessary for constructing the indecomposable but reducible representations of SU q (2) and for the completeness of the state space. In this case the Hamiltonian may not be completely diagonalized.

We discuss the XXZ spin chain with certain boundary term and the representation of quantum group SUq(2). It is shown that Bethe Ansatz states are highest weight states of SUq(2), with q arbitrary We construct the irreducible representation of the quantum group. For q a rational root of unity, we show that there are new solutions to the BA equations, We derived the state vectors | b′> by taking certain limit, from which we construct the type I and type Ⅱ representations of SUq(2).

BETHE ANSATZ AND QUANTUM GROUPS

Hector J. de Vega

The formulation and resolution of integrable lattice statistical models in a quantum group covariant way is the subject of this review. The Bethe Ansatz turns to be remarkably useful to implement quantum group symmetries and to provide quantum group representations even when $q$ is a root of unity. We start by solving the six-vertex model with fixed boundary conditions (FBC) that guarantee exact $SU(2)_q$ invariance on the lattice. The algebra of the Yang-Baxter (YB) and $SU(2)_q$ generators turns to close. The infinite spectral parameter limit of the YB generators yields {\bf cleanly} the $SU(2)_q$ generators. The Bethe Ansatz states constructed for FBC are shown to be {\bf highest weights} of $SU(2)_q$. The higher level Bethe Ansatz equations (BAE, describing the physical excitations) are explicitly derived for FBC. We then solve the RSOS($p$) models on the light--cone lattice with fixed boundary conditions by disentangling the type II representations of $SU(2)_q$, at $q=e^{iπ/p}$, from the full SOS spectrum obtained through Algebraic Bethe Ansatz. The RSOS states are those with quantum spin $J

Bethe states of the integrable spin- s chain with generic open boundaries

Lijun Yang, Xin Zhang, Junpeng Cao +3 more

Abstract Based on the inhomogeneous T – Q relation and the associated Bethe ansatz equations obtained via the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz, we construct the Bethe-type eigenstates of the SU (2)-invariant spin- s chain with generic non-diagonal boundaries by employing certain orthogonal basis of the Hilbert space.

The $sl_2$ loop algebra symmetry of the XXZ spin chain: an algorithm for the degeneracy of a regular Bethe state(Solvable Lattice Models 2004 : Recent Progress on Solvable Lattice Models )

Tetsuo Deguchi

The Hamiltonian of the XXZ spin chain has the $sl_{2}$ loop algebra symmetry if the $q$ parameter is given by a root of unity, $q_{0}^{2N}=1$ , for an integer $N$ .We review an algorithm for determining the dimensions of the degenerate eigenspace generated by a given regular Bethe state in some sectors.The proof of the algorithm has been formulated in Ref.[3] as follows: We show in some sectors that regular Bethe ansatz eigenvectors are highest weight vectors and generate irreducible representations of the $sl_{2}$ loop algebra; We prove that every finite-dimensional highest weight representation of the $sl_{2}$ loop algebra is irreducible; We then derive the dimensions of the highest weight representation generated by a given regular Bethe state through the Drinfeld polynomial, which is expressed explicitly in terms of the Bethe roots.

XXZ Bethe states as highest weight vectors of the $sl_2$ loop algebra at roots of unity

Tetsuo Deguchi

We prove some part of the conjecture that regular Bethe ansatz eigenvectors of the XXZ spin chain at roots of unity are highest weight vectors of the $sl_2$ loop algebra. Here $q$ is related to the XXZ anisotropic coupling $Δ$ by $Δ=(q+q^{-1})/2$, and it is given by a root of unity, $q^{2N}=1$, for a positive integer $N$. We show that regular XXZ Bethe states are annihilated by the generators ${\bar x}_k^{+}$'s, for any $N$. We discuss, for some particular cases of N=2, that regular XXZ Bethe states are eigenvectors of the generators of the Cartan subalgebra, ${\bar h}_k$'s. Here the loop algebra $U(L(sl_2))$ is generated by ${\bar x}_k^{\pm}$ and ${\bar h}_k$ for $k \in {\bf Z}$, which are the classical analogues of the Drinfeld generators of the quantum loop algebra $U_q(L(sl_2))$. A representation of $U(L(sl_2))$ is called highest weight if it is generated by a vector $Ω$ which is annihilated by the generators ${\bar x}_k^{+}$'s and such that $Ω$ is an eigenvector of the ${\bar h}_k$'s. We also discuss the classical analogue of the Drinfeld polynomial which characterizes the irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight representation of $U(L(sl_2))$.

Quantum group symmetries and completeness for A 2 n ( 2 ) open spin chains

Ibrahim Ahmed, Rafael I. Nepomechie, Wang Chunguang

Abstract We argue that the Hamiltonians for A 2 n ( 2 ) open quantum spin chains corresponding to two choices of integrable boundary conditions have the symmetries U q ( B n ) and U q ( C n ) , respectively. We find a formula for the Dynkin labels of the Bethe states (which determine the degeneracies of the corresponding eigenvalues) in terms of the numbers of Bethe roots of each type. With the help of this formula, we verify numerically (for a generic value of the anisotropy parameter) that the degeneracies and multiplicities of the spectra implied by the quantum group symmetries are completely described by the Bethe ansatz.

XXZ Bethe states as highest weight vectors of the sl2sl_2sl2​ loop algebra at roots of unity
We prove some part of the conjecture that regular Bethe ansatz eigenvectors of the XXZ spin chain at roots of unity are highest weight vectors of the sl2sl_2sl2​ loop algebra. Here qqq is related to the XXZ anisotropic coupling ΔΔΔ by Δ=(q+q−1)/2Δ=(q+q^{-1})/2Δ=(q+q−1)/2, and it is given by a root of unity, q2N=1q^{2N}=1q2N=1, for a positive integer NNN. We show that regular XXZ Bethe states are annihilated by the generators xˉk+{\bar x}_k^{+}xˉk+​'s, for any NNN. We discuss, for some particular cases of N=2, that regular XXZ Bethe states are eigenvectors of the generators of the Cartan subalgebra, hˉk{\bar h}_khˉk​'s. Here the loop algebra U(L(sl2))U(L(sl_2))U(L(sl2​)) is generated by xˉk±{\bar x}_k^{\pm}xˉk±​ and hˉk{\bar h}_khˉk​ for k∈Zk \in {\bf Z}k∈Z, which are the classical analogues of the Drinfeld generators of the quantum loop algebra Uq(L(sl2))U_q(L(sl_2))Uq​(L(sl2​)). A representation of U(L(sl2))U(L(sl_2))U(L(sl2​)) is called highest weight if it is generated by a vector ΩΩΩ which is annihilated by the generators xˉk+{\bar x}_k^{+}xˉk+​'s and such that ΩΩΩ is an eigenvector of the hˉk{\bar h}_khˉk​'s.
