We give a detailed description of the nested algebraic Bethe ansatz. We consider integrable models with a $\mathfrak{gl}_3$-invariant $R$-matrix as the basic example, however, we also describe possible generalizations. We give recursions…
We summarize the main properties of the so called ''abnormal solutions'' of the Wick--Cutkosky model, i.e. two massive scalar particles interacting via massless scalar exchange ("photons"), within the Bethe--Salpeter equation. These…
In the Wick-Cutkosky model, where two scalar massive constituents interact by means of the exchange of a scalar massless particle, the Bethe-Salpeter equation has solutions of two types, called "normal" and "abnormal". In the…
