After briefly reviewing selected Ising and chiral Potts model results, we discuss a number of properties of cyclic hypergeometric functions which appear naturally in the description of the integrable chiral Potts model and its…
In this paper we study the large-N limits of the integrable N-state chiral Potts model. Three chiral solutions of the star-triangle equations are derived, with states taken from all integers, or from a finite or infinite real interval.…
In this paper we discuss the integrable chiral Potts model, as it clearly relates to how we got befriended with Vaughan Jones, whose birthday we celebrated at the Qinhuangdao meeting. Remarkably we can also celebrate the birthday of the…
In the first part of this paper I shall discuss the round-about way of how the integrable chiral Potts model was discovered about 30 years ago. As there should be more higher-genus models to be discovered, this might be of interest. In the…
Second-order equations of motion on a group manifold that appear in a large class of so-called chiral theories are presented. These equations are presented and explicitely solved for cases of semi-simple, finite-dimensional Lie groups. With…
This article is an attempt to a pedagogical introduction and review into the elementary concepts of chiral symmetry in nuclear physics. Effective chiral models such as the linear and nonlinear sigma model will be discussed as well as the…
Chiral quark models offer a practical and simple tool to describe covariantly both low and high energy phenomenology in combination with QCD evolution. This can be done in full harmony with chiral symmetry and electromagnetic gauge…

The discrete quantum Sine-Gordon model at roots of unity remarkably combines a classical integrable system with an integrable quantum spin system, whose parameters obey classical equations of motion. We show that the fundamental R-matrix of…
In this paper a hithertho unknown symmetry of the three-state chiral Potts model is found consisting of two coupled Temperley-Lieb algebras. From these we can construct new superintegrable models. One realisation is in terms of a staggered…
Basic facts and definitions of conformal moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are recalled. Some computational methods are reviewed. For the case of quadrilaterals with polygonal sides, some recent results are given. Some numerical…
The solvable $sl(n)$-chiral Potts model can be interpreted as a three-dimensional lattice model with local interactions. To within a minor modification of the boundary conditions it is an Ising type model on the body centered cubic lattice…
In this report, we present a systematic account of mathematical structures of certain special polynomials arisen from the energy study of the superintegrable $N$-state chiral Potts model with a finite number of sizes. The polynomials of…
Given a chiral algebra, we study modules over an arbitrary power of a curve. We describe this category in three different ways: in terms of factorization, in terms of certain chiral operations and as modules for a lie algebra in a certain…
These lectures are an attempt to a pedagogical introduction into the elementary concepts of chiral symmetry in nuclear physics. Effective chiral models such as the linear and nonlinear sigma model will be discussed as well as the essential…
An abstract theory of ultradifferentiable sheafs is developed. Moreover, various applications to the theory of linear partial differential equations, differential geometry and, in particular, CR geometry are discussed.
This is a review of ($q$-)hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials and their relation to representation theory of quantum groups, to matrix models, to integrable theory, and to knot theory. We discuss both continuous and discrete orthogonal…
We describe deformations of non-linear (birational) representations of discrete groups generated by involutions, having their origin in the theory of the symmetric five-state Potts model. One of the deformation parameters can be seen as the…
At roots of unity the $N$-state integrable chiral Potts model and the six-vertex model descend from each other with the $\tau_2$ model as the intermediate. We shall discuss how different gauge choices in the six-vertex model lead to two…
