The spin-\frac{1}{2}12 Heisenberg XXZ chain is a paradigmatic quantum integrable model. Although it can be solved exactly via Bethe ansatz techniques, there are still open issues regarding the spectrum at root of unity values of the anisotropy. We construct Baxter’s Q operator at arbitrary anisotropy from a two-parameter transfer matrix associated to a complex-spin auxiliary space. A decomposition of this transfer matrix provides a simple proof of the transfer matrix fusion and Wronskian relations. At root of unity a truncation allows us to construct the Q operator explicitly in terms of finite-dimensional matrices. From its decomposition we derive truncated fusion and Wronskian relations as well as an interpolation-type formula that has been conjectured previously. We elucidate the Fabricius–McCoy (FM) strings and exponential degeneracies in the spectrum of the six-vertex transfer matrix at root of unity. Using a semicyclic auxiliary representation we give a conjecture for creation and annihilation operators of FM strings for all roots of unity. We connect our findings with the `string-charge duality’ in the thermodynamic limit, leading to a conjecture for the imaginary part of the FM string centres with potential applications to out-of-equilibrium physics.

We conjecture the existence of hidden Onsager algebra symmetries in two interacting quantum integrable lattice models, i.e. spin-1/2 XXZ model and spin-1 Zamolodchikov-Fateev model at arbitrary root of unity values of the anisotropy. The conjectures relate the Onsager generators to the conserved charges obtained from semi-cyclic transfer matrices. The conjectures are motivated by two examples which are spin-1/2 XX model and spin-1 U(1)-invariant clock model. A novel construction of the semi-cyclic transfer matrices of spin-1 Zamolodchikov-Fateev model at arbitrary root of unity values of the anisotropy is carried out via the transfer matrix fusion procedure.

We investigate anN-state spin model called quantum relativistic Toda chain and based on the unitary finite-dimensional representations of the Weyl algebra withqbeingNth primitive root of unity. Parameters of the finite-dimensional representation of the local Weyl algebra form the classical discrete integrable system. Nontrivial dynamics of the classical counterpart corresponds to isospectral transformations of the spin system. Similarity operators are constructed with the help of modified Baxter'sQ-operators. The classical counterpart of the modifiedQ-operator for the initial homogeneous spin chain is a Bäcklund transformation. This transformation creates an extra Hirota-type soliton in a parameterization of the chain structure. Special choice of values of solitonic amplitudes yields a degeneration of spin eigenstates, leading to the quantum separation of variables, or the functional Bethe ansatz. A projector to the separated eigenstates is constructed explicitly as a product of modifiedQ-operators.

Abstract In 1996, a q-deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of the Schrödinger Lie algebra was introduced in Dobrev et al. [J. Phys. A 29 (1996) 5909–5918.]. This algebra is called the quantum Schrödinger algebra. In this paper, we study the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand (BGG) category $\mathcal{O}$ for the quantum Schrödinger algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{s})$ , where q is a nonzero complex number which is not a root of unity. If the central charge $\dot z\neq 0$ , using the module $B_{\dot z}$ over the quantum Weyl algebra $H_q$ , we show that there is an equivalence between the full subcategory $\mathcal{O}[\dot Z]$ consisting of modules with the central charge $\dot z$ and the BGG category $\mathcal{O}^{(\mathfrak{sl}_2)}$ for the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ . In the case that $\dot z = 0$ , we study the subcategory $\mathcal{A}$ consisting of finite dimensional $U_q(\mathfrak{s})$ -modules of type 1 with zero action of Z. We directly construct an equivalence functor from $\mathcal{A}$ to the category of finite dimensional representations of an infinite quiver with some quadratic relations. As a corollary, we show that the category of finite dimensional $U_q(\mathfrak{s})$ -modules is wild.

Lattice algebras are defined and used to study the symmetries of 2D lattice models. New and interesting examples of such algebras are provided by the affine Hecke algebra, owing to the possibility of constructing braid generators out of its generators. I propose an Ansatz for the braid generators and derive some solutions. A particular finite-dimensional quotient is shown to be a natural generalization of the Temperley-Lieb-Jones algebra. It is used to give a unified picture of known and unknown symmetries of the spin-½ xxz model with boundary terms. The Ising model in an external magnetic field is also a representation of this quotient.

We consider a model of random surfaces with extrinsic curvature term embedded into 3-D Euclidean lattice Z3. On a 3-D Euclidean lattice it has an equivalent representation in terms of the transfer matrix K(Qi, Qf), which describes the propagation of the loops Q. We study the spectrum of the transfer matrix K(Qi, Qf) on finite-dimensional lattices. The renormalisation group technique is used to investigate the phase structure of the model and its critical behaviour.

AbstractWe study the representations of extended affine Lie algebras where q is N-th primitive root of unity (ℂq is the quantum torus in two variables). We first prove that ⊕ for a suitable number of copies is a quotient of . Thus any finite dimensional irreducible module for ⊕ lifts to a representation of . Conversely, we prove that any finite dimensional irreducible module for comes from above. We then construct modules for the extended affine Lie algebras which is integrable and has finite dimensional weight spaces.

The quantum H3 integrable system is a three-dimensional system with rational potential related to the noncrystallographic root system H3. It is shown that the gauge-rotated H3 Hamiltonian as well as one of the integrals, when written in terms of the invariants of the Coxeter group H3, is in algebraic form: it has polynomial coefficients in front of derivatives. The Hamiltonian has infinitely-many finite-dimensional invariant subspaces in polynomials, they form the infinite flag with the characteristic vector [Formula: see text]. One among possible integrals is found (of the second order) as well as its algebraic form. A hidden algebra of the H3 Hamiltonian is determined. It is an infinite-dimensional, finitely-generated algebra of differential operators possessing finite-dimensional representations characterized by a generalized Gauss decomposition property. A quasi-exactly-solvable integrable generalization of the model is obtained. A discrete integrable model on the uniform lattice in a space of H3-invariants "polynomially"-isospectral to the quantum H3 model is defined.

AbstractWe describe a general setting for the definition of semi-infinite cohomology of finite-dimensional graded algebras, and provide an interpretation of such cohomology in terms of derived categories. We apply this interpretation to compute semi-infinite cohomology of some modules over the small quantum group at a root of unity, generalizing an earlier result of Arkhipov (posed as a conjecture by B. Feigin).
