The quantum inverse scattering method is applied to the inhomogeneous Heisenberg XYZ model with general spins, i.e. the general spin representations of the Sklyanin algebra. By means of the generalized Bethe ansatz developed by Takhtajan and Faddeev (1979) the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the transfer matrix are found.
Generalized XYZ Model Associated to Sklyanin Algebra∗
The free energy of a lattice model, which is a generalization of the Heisenberg XYZ model with the higher spin representation of the Sklyanin algebra, is calculated by the generalized Bethe Ansatz of Takhtajan and Faddeev.

A generalization of the eight-vertex model by means of higher spin representations of the Sklyanin algebra is investigated by the quantum inverse scattering method and the algebraic Bethe ansatz. Under the well known string hypothesis low-lying excited states are considered and scattering phase shifts of two physical particles are calculated. The S-matrix of two-particle states is shown to be proportional to Baxter`s (1972) elliptic R-matrix with a different elliptic modulus from the original one.
For generic values of q, all the eigenvectors of the transfer matrix of the Uqsl(2)-invariant open spin-1/2 XXZ chain with finite length N can be constructed using the algebraic Bethe ansatz (ABA) formalism of Sklyanin. However, when q is a root of unity (q=eiπ/p with integer p≥2), the Bethe equations acquire continuous solutions, and the transfer matrix develops Jordan cells. Hence, there appear eigenvectors of two new types: eigenvectors corresponding to continuous solutions (exact complete p-strings), and generalized eigenvectors. We propose general ABA constructions for these two new types of eigenvectors. We present many explicit examples, and we construct complete sets of (generalized) eigenvectors for various values of p and N.
The Bethe ansatz equations of the 1-D SU(3) Hubbard model are systematically derived by diagonalizing the inhomogeneous transfer matrix of the XXX model. We first derive the scattering matrix of the SU(3) Hubbard model through the coordinate Bethe ansatz method. Then, with the help quantum inverse scattering method we solve the nested transfer matrix and give the eigenvalues, the eigenvectors and the Bethe ansatz equations. Finally, we obtain the exactly analytic solution for the ground state. PACS:05.20.-y; 05.50.+q; 04.20.Jb; 03.65.Fd
