    Slavnov and Gaudin-Korepin Formulas for Models without U(1){\rm U}(1) Symmetry: the Twisted XXX Chain

    Full text link
    We consider the XXX spin-12\frac{1}{2} Heisenberg chain on the circle with an arbitrary twist. We characterize its spectral problem using the modified algebraic Bethe anstaz and study the scalar product between the Bethe vector and its dual. We obtain modified Slavnov and Gaudin-Korepin formulas for the model. Thus we provide a first example of such formulas for quantum integrable models without U(1){\rm U}(1) symmetry characterized by an inhomogenous Baxter T-Q equation

    Universal Bethe ansatz solution for the Temperley-Lieb spin chain

    Get PDF
    We consider the Temperley-Lieb (TL) open quantum spin chain with "free" boundary conditions associated with the spin-ss representation of quantum-deformed sl(2)sl(2). We construct the transfer matrix, and determine its eigenvalues and the corresponding Bethe equations using analytical Bethe ansatz. We show that the transfer matrix has quantum group symmetry, and we propose explicit formulas for the number of solutions of the Bethe equations and the degeneracies of the transfer-matrix eigenvalues. We propose an algebraic Bethe ansatz construction of the off-shell Bethe states, and we conjecture that the on-shell Bethe states are highest-weight states of the quantum group. We also propose a determinant formula for the scalar product between an off-shell Bethe state and its on-shell dual, as well as for the square of the norm. We find that all of these results, except for the degeneracies and a constant factor in the scalar product, are universal in the sense that they do not depend on the value of the spin. In an appendix, we briefly consider the closed TL spin chain with periodic boundary conditions, and show how a previously-proposed solution can be improved so as to obtain the complete (albeit non-universal) spectrum.Comment: v2: 21 pages; minor revisions, references added, publishe

    Algebraic Bethe ansatz for the Temperley-Lieb spin-1 chain

    Get PDF
    We use the algebraic Bethe ansatz to obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the spin-1 Temperley-Lieb open quantum chain with "free" boundary conditions. We exploit the associated reflection algebra in order to prove the off-shell equation satisfied by the Bethe vectors.Comment: v2: 28 pages; minor revisions, publishe

    The integrable quantum group invariant A_{2n-1}^(2) and D_{n+1}^(2) open spin chains

    Full text link
    A family of A_{2n}^(2) integrable open spin chains with U_q(C_n) symmetry was recently identified in arXiv:1702.01482. We identify here in a similar way a family of A_{2n-1}^(2) integrable open spin chains with U_q(D_n) symmetry, and two families of D_{n+1}^(2) integrable open spin chains with U_q(B_n) symmetry. We discuss the consequences of these symmetries for the degeneracies and multiplicities of the spectrum. We propose Bethe ansatz solutions for two of these models, whose completeness we check numerically for small values of n and chain length N. We find formulas for the Dynkin labels in terms of the numbers of Bethe roots of each type, which are useful for determining the corresponding degeneracies. In an appendix, we briefly consider D_{n+1}^(2) chains with other integrable boundary conditions, which do not have quantum group symmetry.Comment: 47 pages; v2: two references added and minor change

    A tale of two Bethe ans\"atze

    Full text link
    We revisit the construction of the eigenvectors of the single and double-row transfer matrices associated with the Zamolodchikov-Fateev model, within the algebraic Bethe ansatz method. The left and right eigenvectors are constructed using two different methods: the fusion technique and Tarasov's construction. A simple explicit relation between the eigenvectors from the two Bethe ans\"atze is obtained. As a consequence, we obtain the Slavnov formula for the scalar product between on-shell and off-shell Tarasov-Bethe vectors.Comment: 28 pages; v2: 30 pages, added proof of (4.40) and (5.39), minor changes to match the published versio
