We study the quasi-particle spectrum of the integrable three-state chiral Potts chain in the massive phase by combining a numerical study of the zeros of associated transfer matrix eigenvalues with the exact results of the ferromagnetic three-state Potts chain and the three-state superintegrable chiral Potts model. We find that the spectrum is described in terms of quasi-particles with momenta restricted only to segments of the Brillouin zone 0≤P≤2π where the boundaries of the segments depend on the chiral angles of the model.

We have performed a Random Matrix Theory (RMT) analysis of the quantum four state chiral Potts chain for different sizes of the quantum chain up to eight sites, and for different unfolding methods. Our analysis shows that one generically has a Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble statistics for the unfolded spectrum instead of the GUE statistics one could expect. Furthermore a change from the generic GOE distribution to a Poisson distribution occurs when the hamiltonian becomes integrable. Therefore, the RMT analysis can be seen as a detector of "higher genus integrability".

We consider the star-triangle relation and the form of its solutions. We present some simple parametrizations of the weight functions of the three-state chiral Potts model. This model does not have the “difference property”: we discuss the resulting difficulties in attempting to use the corner transfer matrix method for this model.
