FUNCTIONAL RELATIONS FOR TRANSFER MATRICES OF THE CHIRAL POTTS MODEL
R. J. Baxter, Vladimir V. Bazhanov, Jacques H. H. Perk
It has recently been shown that the solvable N-state chiral Potts model is related to a vertex model with N-state spins on vertical edges, two-state spins on horizontal edges. Here we generalize this to a “j-state by N-state” model and establish three sets of functional relations between the various transfer matrices. The significance of the “super-integrable” case of the chiral Potts model is discussed, and results reported for its finite-size corrections at criticality.
