We consider integrable Matrix Product States (MPS) in integrable spin chains and show that they correspond to "operator valued" solutions of the so-called twisted Boundary Yang-Baxter (or reflection) equation. We argue that the…
The $Q$-system is an efficient method for finding complete physical solutions of Bethe ansatz equations, but so far its application has been confined to systems possessing $U(1)$ symmetry. We extend the rational $Q$-system framework to…
The free energy per lattice site of a quantum spin chain in the thermodynamic limit is determined by a single `dominant' Eigenvalue of an associated quantum transfer matrix in the infinite Trotter number limit. For integrable quantum spin…
We generalise the fusion procedure for the $A_{\n-1}^{(1)}$ open spin chain ($\n>2$) and we show that the transfer matrix satisfies a crossing property. We use these results to solve the $A_{\n-1}^{(1)}$ open spin chain with $U_{q}…
We investigate the integrable structures in an N=2 superconfomal Sp(N) Yang-Mills theory with matter, which is dual to an open+closed string system. We restrict ourselves to the BMN operators that correspond to free string states. In the…
We consider the open spin-s XXZ quantum spin chain with nondiagonal boundary terms. By exploiting certain functional relations at roots of unity, we derive a generalized form of T-Q relation involving more than one independent Q(u), which…

The anisotropic spin-1/2 chains with arbitrary boundary fields are diagonalized with the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz method. Based on the properties of the R-matrix and the K-matrices, an operator product identity of the transfer matrix is…
The transfer matrix of the XXZ open spin-1/2 chain with general integrable boundary conditions and generic anisotropy parameter (q is not a root of unity and |q|=1) is diagonalized using the representation theory of the q-Onsager algebra.…
We solve the longstanding problem to define a functional characterization of the spectrum of the transfer matrix associated to the most general spin-1/2 representations of the 6-vertex reflection algebra for general inhomogeneous chains.…

Exact solution of the quantum integrable $D^{(2)}_2$ spin chain with generic integrable boundary fields is constructed. It is found that the transfer matrix of this model can be factorized as the product of those of two open staggered…
We diagonalize the double-row transfer matrix of the SU(N) vertex model for certain classes of non-diagonal boundary conditions. We derive explicit expressions for the corresponding eigenvectors and eigenvalues by means of the algebraic…
We calculate the scalar product of Bethe states of the XXZ spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ chain with general integrable boundary conditions. The off-shell equations satisfied by the transfer matrix and the off-shell Bethe vectors allow one to derive a…
We consider both closed and open integrable antiferromagnetic chains constructed with the SU(N)-invariant R matrix. For the closed chain, we extend the analyses of Sutherland and Kulish-Reshetikhin by considering also complex ``string''…
In [1] an integrable quantum model was introduced and a class of its cyclic representations was proven to define lattice regularizations of the Sine-Gordon model. Here, we analyze general cyclic representations of this integrable quantum…
