Abstract

We present an 'algebraic treatment' of the analytical Bethe ansatz. For this purpose, we introduce abstract monodromy and transfer matrices which provide an algebraic framework for the analytical Bethe ansatz. It allows us to deal with a generic gl ( )-spin chain possessing on each site an arbitrary gl ( )-representation. For open spin chains, we use the classification of the reflection matrices to treat all the diagonal boundary cases. As a result, we obtain the Bethe equations in their full generality for closed and open spin chains. The classifications of finite-dimensional irreducible representations for the Yangian (closed spin chains) and for the reflection algebras (open spin chains) are directly linked to the calculation of the transfer matrix eigenvalues. The local Hamiltonian associated with a given integrable spin chain needs to be computed case by case. A general formula is still lacking at that point. As examples, we recover the usual Hamiltonian and Bethe equations for closed and open spin chains; we treat the alternating spin chains and the closed spin chain with an impurity. We also compute the Hamiltonian and Bethe equations for the open spin chain model used in the context of large- N QCD.

ANALYTICAL BETHE ANSATZ FOR OPEN SPIN CHAINS WITH SOLITON NONPRESERVING BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

D. Arnaudon, Anastasia Doikou, L. Frappat +2 more

We present an "algebraic treatment" of the analytical Bethe ansatz for open spin chains with soliton nonpreserving (SNP) boundary conditions. For this purpose, we introduce abstract monodromy and transfer matrices which provide an algebraic framework for the analytical Bethe ansatz. It allows us to deal with a generic [Formula: see text] open SNP spin chain possessing on each site an arbitrary representation. As a result, we obtain the Bethe equations in their full generality. The classification of finite dimensional irreducible representations for the twisted Yangians are directly linked to the calculation of the transfer matrix eigenvalues.

The nested Bethe ansatz for ‘all’ open spin chains with diagonal boundary conditions

S. Belliard, E. Ragoucy

We present in a unified and detailed way the nested Bethe ansatz for open spin chains based on(super)algebras, with arbitrary representations (i.e., 'spins') on each site of the chain and diagonal boundary matrices (K + (u), K -(u)).The nested Bethe ansatz applies for a general K -(u), but a particular form of the K + (u) matrix.The construction extends and unifies the results already obtained for open spin chains based on the fundamental representation and for some particular superspin chains.We give the eigenvalues, Bethe equations and the explicit form of the Bethe vectors for the corresponding models.The Bethe vectors are also expressed using a trace formula.

Nested bethe ansatz for y(gl(n)) open spin chains with diagonal boundary conditions

S. Belliard, E. Ragoucy

In this proceeding we present the nested Bethe ansatz for open spin chains of XXX-type, with arbitrary representations (i.e. “spins”) on each site of the chain and diagonal boundary matrices (K +(u), K −(u)). The nested Bethe ansatz applies for a general K −(u), but a particular form of the K +(u) matrix. We give the eigenvalues, Bethe equations and the form of the Bethe vectors for the corresponding models. The Bethe vectors are expressed using a trace formula

Analytical Bethe Ansatz for quantum-algebra-invariant spin chains

Luca Mezincescu, Rafael I. Nepomechie

We have recently constructed a large class of open quantum spin chains which have quantum-algebra symmetry and which are integrable. We show here that these models can be exactly solved using a generalization of the analytical Bethe Ansatz (BA) method. In particular, we determine in this way the spectrum of the transfer matrices of the Uq[su(2)]-invariant spin chains associated with A1(1) and A2(2) in the fundamental representation. The quantum-algebra invariance of these models plays an essential role in obtaining these results. The BA equations for these open chains are “doubled” with respect to the BA equations for the corresponding closed chains.

Nested algebraic Bethe ansaetze for orthogonal and symplectic spin chains

Allan John Gerrard

In this thesis the nested algebraic Bethe ansatz technique is applied to various orthogonal and symplectic closed and open spin chain models. Each spin chain considered is regarded as a representation of an underlying quantum group algebra, and expressions for eigenvectors of transfer matrices associated to these models are constructed using the algebra relations, reducing the problem to a set of Bethe equations. The specific models considered are the Ol'shanskii twisted Yangian spin chain, where gl_n bulk symmetry is broken to orthogonal or symplectic symmetry; the MacKay twisted Yangian spin chain, an open spin chain with bulk orthogonal or symplectic symmetry and various boundary types; and the q-deformed orthogonal or symplectic closed spin chain. For the first and third cases, a closed 'trace formula' expression for the eigenvector is also provided.
