The free-fermion point refers to a $\operatorname{GL}(2)\times\operatorname{GL}(1)$ parametrized Yang-Baxter equation within the six-vertex model. It has been known for a long time that this is connected with the quantum group…
In this note we study `a la Baxter [1] the possible integrable manifolds of the asymmetric eight-vertex model. As expected they occur when the Boltzmann weights are either symmetric or satisfy the free-fermion condition but our analysis…
The six-vertex model, or the square ice model, with domain wall boundary conditions (DWBC) has been introduced and solved for finite $N$ by Korepin and Izergin. The solution is based on the Yang-Baxter equations and it represents the free…
A class of recently introduced su(n) `free-fermion' models has recently been used to construct generalized Hubbard models. I derive an algebra defining the `free-fermion' models and give new classes of solutions. I then introduce a…
We study the eight-vertex model at its free-fermion point. We express a new "switching" symmetry of the model in several forms: partition functions, order-disorder variables, couplings, Kasteleyn matrices. This symmetry can be used to…
Using the representation of the quantum group $SL_q$(2) by the Weyl ope\-ra\-tors of the canonical commutation relations in quantum mechanics, we construct and solve a new vertex model on a square lattice. Random variables on horizontal…
Given an arbitrary choice of two sets of nonzero Boltzmann weights for $n$-color lattice models, we provide explicit algebraic conditions on these Boltzmann weights which guarantee a solution (i.e., a third set of weights) to the…
A variety of Yang-Baxter maps are obtained from integrable multi-field equations on quad-graphs. A systematic framework for investigating this connection relies on the symmetry groups of the equations. The method is applied to lattice…
We present a simple but explicit example of a recent development which connects quantum integrable models with Schubert calculus: there is a purely geometric construction of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation and their associated…
Integrability conditions on local Hamiltonians for one-dimensional quantum systems to be free and interacting fermions are introduced. The definition of free fermion is the simultaneous satisfaction of the Yang-Baxter equation and Shastry's…
We show that the effective field equations for a recently formulated polynomial affine model of gravity, in the sector of a torsion-free connection, accept general Einstein manifolds---with or without cosmological constant---as solutions.…
The dimer model on a strip is considered as a Yang-Baxter \mbox{integrable} six vertex model at the free-fermion point with crossing parameter $\lambda=\tfrac{\pi}{2}$ and quantum group invariant boundary conditions. A one-to-many mapping…
Several aspects of relations between braces and non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation are discussed and many consequences are derived. In particular, for each positive integer $n$ a finite square-free…
In this work, we employ the algebraic-differential method recently developed by the author to solve the Yang-Baxter equation for arbitrary fifteen-vertex models satisfying the ice-rule. We show that there are four different families of such…
Some features of integrable lattice models are reviewed for the case of the six-vertex model. By the Bethe ansatz method we derive the free energy of the six-vertex model. Then, from the expression of the free energy we show analytically…

The two-dimensional Ising model is representable as a lattice free-fermion field theory in terms of the integral over anticommuting Grassmann variables. The exact solution in a zero magnetic field then follows by evaluating Gaussian…
Using Bethe's hypothesis, C N Yang exactly solved the one-dimensional (1D) delta-function interacting spin-1/2 Fermi gas with an arbitrary spin-imbalance in 1967. At that time, using a different method, M Gaudin solved the problem of…
We use statistical mechanics -- variants of the six-vertex model in the plane studied by means of the Yang-Baxter equation -- to give new deformations of Weyl's character formula for classical groups of Cartan type B, C, and D, and a…
A bijective map $r: X^2 \longrightarrow X^2$, where $X = \{x_1, ..., x_n \}$ is a finite set, is called a \emph{set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation} (YBE) if the braid relation $r_{12}r_{23}r_{12} = r_{23}r_{12}r_{23}$ holds…
