We study descendants of inhomogeneous vertex models with boundary reflections when the spin-spin scattering is assumed to be quasi--classical. This corresponds to consider certain power expansion of the boundary-Yang-Baxter equation (or…

It is shown that dimers is Yang-Baxter integrable as a six-vertex model at the free-fermion point with crossing parameter $\lambda=\tfrac{\pi}{2}$. A one-to-many mapping of vertex onto dimer configurations allows the free-fermion solutions…
Density matrix embedding theory (Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 186404 (2012)) and density embedding theory ((Phys. Rev. B 89, 035140 (2014)) have recently been introduced for model lattice Hamiltonians and molecular systems. In the present work,…

The structure of integrable field theories in the presence of defects is discussed in terms of boundary functions under the Lagrangian formalism. Explicit examples of bosonic and fermionic theories are considered. In particular, the…
Quadratic systems generated using Yang-Baxter equations are integrable in a sense, but we display a deterioration in the possession of the Painlev\'e property as the number of equations in each `integrable system' increases. Certain…
A scheme is proposed to construct integer and fractional topological quantum states of fermions in two spatial dimensions. We devise models for such states by coupling wires of non-chiral Luttinger liquids of electrons, that are arranged in…

Quantum impurities give rise to rich physical phenomena, with some exhibiting critical behavior described by conformal field theories (CFTs) in the low-energy limit. In parallel, party-time ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetric non-Hermitian systems…
The effects of magnetic and non-magnetic impurities in spin-Peierls systems are investigated allowing for lattice relaxation and quantum fluctuations. We show that, in isolated chains, strong bonds form next to impurities, leading to the…
