Integrable Chiral Potts Model and the Odd-Even Problem in Quantum Groups at Roots of Unity

Abstract

At roots of unity the NN-state integrable chiral Potts model and the six-vertex model descend from each other with the τ2\tau_2 model as the intermediate. We shall discuss how different gauge choices in the six-vertex model lead to two different quantum group constructions with different qq-Pochhammer symbols, one construction only working well for NN odd, the other equally well for all NN. We also address the generalization based on the sl(m,n)(m,n) vertex model.
