Yang-Baxter equation (YBE)

introduction

• exact solvability of many models is explained by commuting transfer matrices
  
• manifestations of Yang-Baxter equation
  
  • factorizable S-matrix
    
• \(R_{12}R_{13}R_{23}=R_{23}R_{13}R_{12}\)
  
• for vertex models, YBE becomes the star-triangle relation
  
• see [Baxter1995] for history
  

 

 

Yang and Baxter

• Yang199
  
• Baxter considered the problem of eight-vertex model and quantum XYZ model
  

 

 

integrability of a model

• in the space of couplings a submanifold exists, such as that the transfer matrices corresponding to any two points P and P' on it commute
  
• characterized by a set of equations on the Boltzmann weights
  
  • this set of equations is called the Yang-Baxter equation
    
• solutions to Yang-Baxter equation can lead to a construction of integrable models
  

 

 

transfer matrix

• borrowed from transfer matrix in statistical mechanics
  
• transfer matrix is builtup from matrices of  Boltzmann weights
  
• we need the transfer matrices coming from different set of Boltzman weights commute 
  
• partition function = trace of power of transfer matrices
  
• so the problem of solving the model is reduced to the computation of this trace
  

 

 

R-matrix

• we make a matrix from the Boltzmann weights
  
• if we can find an R-matrix, then it implies the existence of a set of Boltzmann weights which give exactly solvable models
  
• that is why we care about the quantum groups
  
• spectral parameters
  
• anistropy parameters
  
  
  

 

Bethe ansatz

• Bethe ansatz
  

 

 

YBE for vertex models

• Yang-Baxter equation
  
• conditions satisfied by the Boltzmann weights of vertex models
