Abstract

In this paper, the solutions of the Yang–Baxter equation both in the vertex model (R matrix) and in the face model (braiding matrix) are computed explicitly for the octet representation of the quantum Kac–Moody A(1)2 enveloping algebra where there is multiplicity greater than one in the decomposition of the coproduct 8⊗8.

Yang-Baxter Equations

David Lovitz

Multiple equations in math, physics, quantum information, and elsewhere are referred to as "the" Yang-Baxter equation, in spite of being a broad family of equations. Most of the equations are nonlinear matrix equations, where the unknown variable is a matrix. This is the case for the so called braided, algebraic, and generalized forms of "the" equation, which are the primary focus of this dissertation. Finding solutions to the various forms of these equations has been the subject of much research. The equations in all their forms are largely considered intractable in high dimensions, and only in dimension 2 have the solutions been fully classified. We begin with an introduction to quantum computation, with a focus on the topological model and its connection to the braid group. Next, we introduce the braided, algebraic, and generalized forms of "the" Yang-Baxter equation. We provide a full classification of diagonal solutions to each form. In particular, we show that any diagonal matrix is a solution to the algebraic form in any dimension, and each instance of the braided and generalized forms only have diagonal solutions that are scalar multiples of the identity. We exploit the relationship between the algebraic and braided forms to construct a solution in any dimension that is applicable to topological quantum computation as a universal gate. The generalized form of the equation is parameterized by three natural numbers, (d,m,l), and we show that the only invertible solutions when l ≥ m are scalar multiples of the identity. We completely classify all solutions arising from an X-shaped ansatz for five different choices of (d,m,l), and provide a complete classification of X-shaped solutions to every odd dimensional braided equation, where there are no X-shaped solutions in any dimension. We fully classify permutation solutions to each instance of the braided and algebraic equations that can be written as a product of 3 or fewer transpositions. We show that the problem of classifying all invertible upper triangular solutions to the 4-dimensional algebraic Yang-Baxter equation can be split into 48 cases, and fully classify one of the cases.

Yang-Baxterization of the eight-vertex model: the braid group approach

Mo -L Ge, Leh-Hun Gwa, Hong-K Zhao

The braid group representation (BGR) for the eight-vertex model is solved for the case in which the total spins are not conserved. A Yang-Baxterization scheme is applied to obtain from these BGR the spectral-dependent solution; they are found to correspond to the free-fermion and the disorder-point solutions.

Yang-Baxter Equation and Quantum Enveloping Algebras

Zhong-Qi Ma

The exact solution of C.N. Yang's one-dimensional many-body problem with repulsive delta-function interactions and R.J. Baxter's eight-vertex statistical model are brilliant achievements in many-body statistical physics. A nonlinear equation, now known as the Yang-Baxter equation, is the key to the solution of both problems. The Yang-Baxter equation has also come to play an important role in such diverse topics as completely integrable statistical models, conformal and topological field theories, knots and links, braid groups and quantum enveloping algebras. This pioneering textbook attempts to make accessible results in this rapidly-growing area of research. The author presents the mathematical fundamentals at the outset, then develops an intuitive understanding of Hopf algebras, quantisation of Lie bialgebras and quantum enveloping algebras. The historical derivation of the Yang-Baxter equation from statistical models is recounted, and the interpretation and solution of the equation are systematically discussed. Throughout, emphasis is placed on acquiring calculation skills through physical understanding rather than achieving mathematical rigour. Originating from the author's own research experience and lectures, this book will prove both an excellent graduate text and a useful work of reference
