Abstract

The gl(N) and U_q(gl(N)) quantum spin chains in the presence of integrable spin impurities are considered. Within the Bethe ansatz formulation, we derive the associated transmission amplitudes, and the corresponding transmission matrices -representations of the underlying quadratic algebra- that physically describe the interaction between the various particle-like excitations displayed by these models and the spin impurity.
