In integrable spin chains, the spectral problem can be solved by the method of Bethe ansatz, which transforms the problem of diagonalization of the Hamiltonian into the problem of solving a set of algebraic equations named Bethe equations.…
We construct the Q-operator for generalised eight vertex models associated to higher spin representations of the Sklyanin algebra, following Baxter's 1973 paper. As an application, we prove the sum rule for the Bethe roots.
We formulate $Q$-systems for the closed XXZ, open XXX and open quantum-group-invariant XXZ quantum spin chains. Polynomial solutions of these $Q$-systems can be found efficiently, which in turn lead directly to the admissible solutions of…
We discuss the construction of Baxter's Q-operator. The suggested approach leads to the one-parametric family of Q-operators, satisfying to the wronslian-type relations. Also we have found the generalization of Baxter operators, with…

In this paper, we consider the quantum XYZ open spin-1/2 chain with boundary fields. We focus on the particular case in which the six boundary parameters are related by a single constraint enabling us to describe part of the spectrum by…
In the present paper we describe the procedure of the Q-operators construction for the q-deformed model, described by the Lax operator, which is important to formulate the Bethe ansatz for the Sin-Gordon model. This Lax operator can also be…
The q-oscillator representation for the Borel subalgebra of the affine symmetry $U_q(sl_N^)$ is presented. By means of this q-oscillator representation, we give the free field realizations of the Baxter's Q-operator $Q_j(t)$, $\bar{Q}_j(t)$…
