The Bethe ansatz in a periodic box-ball system and the ultradiscrete Riemann theta function
Vertex models with quantum group symmetry give rise to integrable cellular
automata at q=0. We study a prototype example known as the periodic box-ball
system. The initial value problem is solved in terms of an ultradiscrete
analogue of the Riemann theta function whose period matrix originates in the
Bethe ansatz at q=0.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figur
Langlands duality for finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras
We describe a correspondence (or duality) between the q-characters of
finite-dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra and its
Langlands dual in the spirit of q-alg/9708006 and 0809.4453. We prove this
duality for the Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules and their irreducible tensor
products. In the course of the proof we introduce and construct "interpolating
(q,t)-characters" depending on two parameters which interpolate between the
q-characters of a quantum affine algebra and its Langlands dual.Comment: 40 pages; several results and comments added. Accepted for

Bethe ansatz at q=0 and periodic box-ball systems
A class of periodic soliton cellular automata is introduced associated with
crystals of non-exceptional quantum affine algebras. Based on the Bethe ansatz
at q=0, we propose explicit formulas for the dynamical period and the size of
certain orbits under the time evolution in A^{(1)}_n case.Comment: 12 pages, Introduction expanded, Summary added and minor

On minimal affinizations of representations of quantum groups
In this paper we study minimal affinizations of representations of quantum
groups (generalizations of Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules of quantum affine
algebras introduced by Chari). We prove that all minimal affinizations in types
A, B, G are special in the sense of monomials. Although this property is not
satisfied in general, we also prove an analog property for a large class of
minimal affinization in types C, D, F. As an application, the Frenkel-Mukhin
algorithm works for these modules. For minimal affinizations of type A, B we
prove the thin property (the l-weight spaces are of dimension 1) and a
conjecture of Nakai-Nakanishi (already known for type A). The proof of the
special property is extended uniformly for more general quantum affinizations
of quantum Kac-Moody algebras.Comment: 38 pages; references and additional results added. Accepted for

Excited state TBA and functional relations in spinless Fermion model
The excited state thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) equations for the spinless
Fermion model are presented by the quantum transfer matrix (QTM) approach. We
introduce a more general family called T-functions and explore functional
relations among them (T-system) and their certain combinations (Y-system).
{}From their analytical property, we derive a closed set of non-linear integral
equations which characterize the correlation length of at
any finite temperatures. Solving these equations numerically, we explicitly
determine the correlation length, which coincides with earlier results with
high accuracy.Comment: 4 page
Bilinear Equations and B\"acklund Transformation for Generalized Ultradiscrete Soliton Solution
Ultradiscrete soliton equations and B\"acklund transformation for a
generalized soliton solution are presented. The equations include the
ultradiscrete KdV equation or the ultradiscrete Toda equation in a special
case. We also express the solution by the ultradiscrete permanent, which is
defined by ultradiscretizing the signature-free determinant, that is, the
permanent. Moreover, we discuss a relation between B\"acklund transformations
for discrete and ultradiscrete KdV equations.Comment: 11 page
Extended T-systems
We use the theory of q-characters to establish a number of short exact
sequences in the category of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum
affine groups of types A and B. That allows us to introduce a set of 3-term
recurrence relations which contains the celebrated T-system as a special case.Comment: 36 pages, latex; v2: version to appear in Selecta Mathematic
Integrable structure of box-ball systems: crystal, Bethe ansatz, ultradiscretization and tropical geometry
The box-ball system is an integrable cellular automaton on one dimensional
lattice. It arises from either quantum or classical integrable systems by the
procedures called crystallization and ultradiscretization, respectively. The
double origin of the integrability has endowed the box-ball system with a
variety of aspects related to Yang-Baxter integrable models in statistical
mechanics, crystal base theory in quantum groups, combinatorial Bethe ansatz,
geometric crystals, classical theory of solitons, tau functions, inverse
scattering method, action-angle variables and invariant tori in completely
integrable systems, spectral curves, tropical geometry and so forth. In this
review article, we demonstrate these integrable structures of the box-ball
system and its generalizations based on the developments in the last two
decades.Comment: 73 page
A crystal theoretic method for finding rigged configurations from paths
The Kerov--Kirillov--Reshetikhin (KKR) bijection gives one to one
correspondences between the set of highest paths and the set of rigged
configurations. In this paper, we give a crystal theoretic reformulation of the
KKR map from the paths to rigged configurations, using the combinatorial R and
energy functions. This formalism provides tool for analysis of the periodic
box-ball systems.Comment: 24 pages, version for publicatio
Exact finite-size spectrum for the multi-channel Kondo model and Kac-Moody fusion rules
The finite-size spectrum for the multi-channel Kondo model is derived
analytically from the exact solution, by mapping the nontrivial Z part of
the Kondo scattering into that for the RSOS model coupled with the impurity.
The analysis is performed for the case of , where is the number of
channel and is the impurity spin. The result obtained is in accordance with
the Kac-Moody fusion hypothesis proposed by Affleck and Ludwig.Comment: RevTex, 4 page
