Abstract

(revised version) The algebraic Bethe ansatz is a powerful method to diagonalize transfermatrices of statistical models derived from solutions of (graded) Yang Baxter equations, connected to fundamental representations of Lie (super-)algebras and their quantum deformations respectively. It is, however, very difficult to apply it to models based on higher dimensional representations of these algebras in auxiliary space, which are not of fusion type. A systematic approach to this problem is presented here. It is illustrated by the diagonalization of a transfer-matrix of a model based on the product of two different fourdimensional representations of Uq ( ̂ gl ′ (2,1; C)). I.

Nested coordinate Bethe ansatz

Gleb Eduardovich Arutyunov

This chapter focuses on the diagonalization of a set of commuting scattering operators, or equivalently, transfer matrices, in models involving higher-rank symmetries. The discussion centers on modules more intricate than those of [N – M, M] type, ultimately considering arbitrary irreducible representations of the symmetric group. The core idea is to construct a suitable basis in the representation space that enables the reduction of a higher-dimensional diagonalization problem to a sequence of lower-dimensional ones that are already solved. This reduction is achieved through a recursive scheme in which each step lowers the matrix dimension, enabling its diagonalization–a procedure known as nested Bethe ansatz. The method is framed as a successive dimensional reduction, systematically building on solutions from simpler cases. Special attention is given to Yang’s connection formula and its role in enabling this recursive approach. The chapter extends the framework introduced in Chapter 3, developing a coordinate version of the nested Bethe ansatz and generalizing it to accommodate multiple levels of nesting. This recursive structure reveals deep algebraic insights and plays a pivotal role in the study of integrable systems with rich internal symmetries.

Folding QQ-relations and transfer matrix eigenvalues: Towards a unified approach to Bethe ansatz for super spin chains

Zengo Tsuboi

Extending the method proposed in [1], we derive QQ-relations (functional relations among Baxter Q-functions) and T-functions (eigenvalues of transfer matrices) for fusion vertex models associated with the twisted quantum affine superalgebras Uq(gl(2r+1|2s)(2)), Uq(gl(2r|2s+1)(2)), Uq(gl(2r|2s)(2)), Uq(osp(2r|2s)(2)) and the untwisted quantum affine orthosymplectic superalgebras Uq(osp(2r+1|2s)(1)) and Uq(osp(2r|2s)(1)) (and their Yangian counterparts, Y(osp(2r+1|2s)) and Y(osp(2r|2s))) as reductions (a kind of folding) of those associated with Uq(gl(M|N)(1)). In particular, we reproduce previously proposed generating functions (difference operators) of the T-functions for the symmetric or anti-symmetric representations, and tableau sum expressions for more general representations for orthosymplectic superalgebras [2], [3], and obtain Wronskian-type expressions (analogues of Weyl-type character formulas) for them. T-functions for spinorial representations are related to reductions of those for asymptotic limits of typical representations of Uq(gl(M|N)(1)).

Algebraic Bethe ansatz for the gl(1|2) generalized model: II. the three gradings

Frank Göhmann, Alexander Seel

The algebraic Bethe ansatz can be performed rather abstractly for whole classes of models sharing the same R -matrix, the only prerequisite being the existence of an appropriate pseudo vacuum state. Here we perform the algebraic Bethe ansatz for all models with 9 × 9, rational, gl(1|2) invariant R -matrix and all three possibilities of choosing the grading. Our Bethe ansatz solution applies, for instance, to the supersymmetric t – J model, the supersymmetric U model and a number of interesting impurity models. It may be extended to obtain the quantum transfer matrix spectrum for this class of models. The properties of a specific model enter the Bethe ansatz solution (i.e. the expression for the transfer matrix eigenvalue and the Bethe ansatz equations) through the three pseudo vacuum eigenvalues of the diagonal elements of the monodromy matrix which in this context are called the parameters of the model.

Algebraic Bethe ansatz for the gl(1|2) generalized model and Lieb-Wu equations

Frank Göhmann, Er Seel, Fachbereich Physik

We solve the gl(1|2) generalized model by means of the algebraic Bethe ansatz. The resulting eigenvalue of the transfer matrix and the Bethe ansatz equations depend on three complex functions, called the parameters of the generalized model. Specifying the parameters appropriately, we obtain the Bethe ansatz equations of the supersymmetric t-J model, the Hubbard model, or of Yang’s model of electrons with delta interaction. This means that the Bethe ansatz equations of these (and many other) models can be obtained from a common algebraic source, namely from the Yang-Baxter algebra generated by the gl(1|2) invariant R-matrix.

A new algebraic Bethe ansatz scheme is proposed to diagonalize classes of integrable models relevant to the description of Bose–Einstein condensation in dilute alkali gases. This is achieved by introducing the notion of ℤ-graded representations of the Yang–Baxter algebra.

A first course in the Yang–Baxter equation

D Karanth, D Richmond, Jeffrey Robert Schmidt

A crash course on the Yang–Baxter equation and its applications in the statistical mechanics of lattice vertex models is presented. Using the simple example of a one-dimensional lattice gas, the basic terminology and standard mathematical procedures of statistical mechanics are illustrated. The coproduct notation is introduced via a discussion of the two-dimensional dimer model, and the transfer matrix formulation is elaborated further. The algebraic Bethe Ansatz (ABA) is introduced in the context of the ice model, leading to the Yang–Baxter equations. The motivation for introducing the ABA is developed, emphasizing the similarity to the quantum oscillator problem, in features such as the generation of “excited states”, and the determination of the eigenvalue spectrum. Finally, these methods from the theory of lattice models are applied to the case of a quantum many-body problem, the Heisenberg chain. From the condition that the monodromy matrices satisfy the Yang–Baxter equation, a complete set of mutually commuting operators is derived, and the Heisenberg chain problem is completely solved.PACS Nos.: 02.20.Uw, 24.10.Cn, 87.10.Hk, 05.20.–y
