Corner transfer matrix of generalized free-fermion vertex systems
Hans-Peter Eckle, Trong Tuong Truong
Abstract
The Hamiltonian limit of the corner transfer matrix (CTM) of a generalized free-fermion vertex system of finite size leads to a quantum spin Hamiltonian of the particular form H N =- Sigma n=1 N$ - 1 (n( sigma n x sigma n+1 x + lambda sigma n y sigma n+1 y +h( sigma n z + sigma /sub /n +1 z ))). Diagonalization may be achieved for all pairs of parameters ( lambda , h) with the use of some new elliptic polynomials which extend the class of special polynomials known so far in the context of CTM.
