The Influence of Boundary Conditions in the Six-Vertex Model

Published May 9, 2002• 27 citations

Abstract

We discuss the influence of boundary conditions on the continuum limit of the six-vertex model by deriving a variational principle for the associated height function with arbitrary fixed boundary conditions. We discuss its consequences using the known phase diagram of the six-vertex model. In some particular cases we compute explicitly the corresponding partial differential equations by means of the Bethe Ansatz.

Properties of eigenstates of the six-vertex model with twisted and open boundary conditions

Heng Fan, Bo-Yu Hou, Kangjie Shi

We use the method proposed by Izergin and Korepin to discuss the Bethe ansatz equations of the six-vertex model with twisted and open boundary conditions. Let two parameters of the Bethe wave functions be equal, then an additional Bethe ansatz equation arises. For the open boundary condition case, we also have discussed the dual pseudovacuum state and have written out the simplest scalar products of the Bethe wave function.

Differential approach to on-shell scalar products in six-vertex models

W. Galléas, Jules Lamers

In this work we obtain hierarchies of partial differential equations describing on-shell scalar products for two types of six-vertex models. More precisely, six-vertex models with two different diagonal boundary conditions are considered: the case with boundary twists and the case with open boundary conditions. Solutions and properties of our partial differential equations are also discussed.

Six-Vertex Model with Domain wall boundary conditions. Variable Inhomogeneities

Jan de Gier, V. E. Korepin

We consider the six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions. We choose the inhomogeneities as solutions of the Bethe Ansatz equations. The Bethe Ansatz equations have many solutions, so we can consider a wide variety of inhomogeneities. For certain choices of the inhomogeneities we study arrow correlation functions on the horizontal line going through the centre. In particular we obtain a multiple integral representation for the emptiness formation probability that generalizes the known formulæ for XXZ antiferromagnets. 1

Six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions in the Bethe-Peierls approximation

Leticia F. Cugliandolo, Giuseppe Gonnella, Alessandro Pelizzola

We use the Bethe-Peierls method combined with the belief propagation algorithm to study the arctic curves in the six vertex model on a square lattice with domain-wall boundary conditions, and the six vertex model on a rectangular lattice with partial domain-wall boundary conditions. We show that this rather simple approximation yields results that are remarkably close to the exact ones when these are known, and allows one to estimate the location of the phase boundaries with relative little effort in cases in which exact results are not available.
