We consider the XXX -type and Gaudin quantum integrable models associated with the Lie algebra . The models are defined on a tensor product of irreducible -modules. For each model, there exist N one-parameter families of commuting operators on , called the transfer matrices. We show that the Bethe vectors for these models, given by the algebraic nested Bethe ansatz, are eigenvectors of higher transfer matrices and compute the corresponding eigenvalues.

We consider the XXX-type and Gaudin quantum integrable models associated with the Lie algebra gl N. The models are defined on a tensor product M1 ⊗... ⊗ Mn of irreducible gl N-modules. For each model, there exist N oneparameter families of commuting operators on M1 ⊗... ⊗ Mn, called the transfer matrices. We show that the Bethe vectors for these models, given by the algebraic nested Bethe ansatz, are eigenvectors of higher transfer matrices and compute the corresponding eigenvalues.

We implement the quantum inverse scattering method for the 4-vertex model. In comparison to previous works of the author which examined the 6-vertex, and 20-vertex, models, the 4-vertex model exhibits different characteristics, ranging from L-operators expressed in terms of projectors and Pauli matrices to algebraic and combinatorial properties, including Poisson structure and boxed plane partitions. With far fewer computations with an L-operator provided for the 4-vertex model by Bogoliubov in 2007, in comparison to those for L-operators of the 6, and 20, vertex models, from lower order expansions of the transfer matrix we derive a system of relations from the structure of operators that can be leveraged for studying characteristics of the higher-spin XXX chain in the weak finite volume limit. In comparison to quantum inverse scattering methods for the 6, and 20, vertex models which can be used to further study integrability, and exact solvability, an adaptation of such an approach for the 4-vertex model can be used to approximate, asymptotically in the weak finite volume limit, sixteen brackets which generate the Poisson structure. From explicit relations for operators of the 4-vertex transfer matrix, we conclude by discussing corresponding aspects of the Yang-Baxter algebra, which is closely related to the operators obtained from products of L-operators for approximating the transfer, and quantum monodromy, matrices. The structure of computations from L-operators of the 4-vertex model directly transfers to L-operators of the higher-spin XXX chain, revealing a similar structure of another Yang-Baxter algebra of interest.
