We demonstrate that the Q matrix introduced in Baxter's 1972 solution of the eight vertex model has some eigenvectors which are not eigenvectors of the spin reflection operator and conjecture a new functional equation for Q(v) which both…

The Q matrix invented by Baxter in 1972 to solve the eight vertex model at roots of unity exists for all values of N, the number of sites in the chain, but only for a subset of roots of unity. We show in this paper that a new Q matrix,…

We describe the story of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities; being known for 85 years and having about 130 pure mathematics proofs, suddenly entering physics when Rodney Baxter solved the Hard Hexagon Model in Statistical Mechanics in 1980. We…

Donald Knuth recently introduced the notion of a Baxter matrix, generalizing Baxter permutations. We show that for fixed number of rows, $r$, the number of Baxter matrices with $r$ rows and $k$ columns eventually satisfies a polynomial in…

In modern terminology, this is the first published paper where the solutions of Yang - Baxter equation "at roots of unity" were analyzed and shown to be related to algebraic curves of genus >1. They are also known now to be connected with…

Corner transfer matrices are a useful tool in the statistical mechanics of simple two-dimensinal models. They can be very effective way of obtaining series expansions of unsolved models, and of calculating the order parameters of solved…

The functional relations of the transfer matrices of fusion hierachies for six- and eight-vertex models with open boundary conditions have been presented in this paper. We have shown the su($2$) fusion rule for the models with more general…

The chiral Potts model continues to pose particular challenges in statistical mechanics: it is ``exactly solvable'' in the sense that it satisfies the Yang-Baxter relation, but actually obtaining the solution is not easy. Its free energy…

Following Baxter's method of producing Q_{72}-operator, we construct the Q-operator of the root-of-unity eight-vertex model for the crossing parameter $\eta = \frac{2m K}{N}$ with odd $N$ where Q_{72} does not exist. We use this new…

An outstanding problem in statistical mechanics is the order parameter of the chiral Potts model. An elegant conjecture for this was made in 1983. It has since been successfully tested against series expansions, but as far as the author is…

Elliott Lieb's ice-type models opened up the whole field of solvable models in statistical mechanics. Here we discuss the ``commuting transfer matrix'' $T, Q$ equations for these models, writing them in a more explicit and transparent…

The corner transfer matrix renormalization group method is an efficient method for evaluating physical quantities in statistical mechanical models. It originates from Baxter's corner transfer matrix equations and method, and was developed…

The energy eigenvalues of the superintegrable chiral Potts model are determined by the zeros of special polynomials which define finite representations of Onsager's algebra. The polynomials determining the low-sector eigenvalues have been…

Dimensional analysis, and in particular the Buckingham $\Pi$ theorem is widely used in fluid mechanics. In this article we obtain an expression for the impact parameter from Buckingham's theorem and we compare our result with Rutherford's…

We demonstrate that the transfer matrix of the inhomogeneous $N$-state chiral Potts model with two vertical superintegrable rapidities serves as the $Q$-operator of XXZ chain model for a cyclic representation of $U_{\sf q}(sl_2)$ with $N$th…

Baxter's Q-operator is generally believed to be the most powerful tool for the exact diagonalization of integrable models. Curiously, it has hitherto not yet been properly constructed in the simplest such system, the compact spin-1/2…

Rotation representations are foundational in fields such as computer graphics, robotics, and machine learning, where precise and efficient modeling of 3D orientations is critical. This paper comprehensively investigates diverse…

In this paper we review the theory of the Yang-Baxter equation related to the 6-vertex model and its higher spin generalizations. We employ a 3D approach to the problem. Starting with the 3D R-matrix, we consider a two-layer projection of…

This note addresses issues raised by Cox and Reid in their seminal paper in 1987 regarding parameter orthogonality in statistical inference. We extend the orthogonality condition to cases with multiple parameters of interest and demonstrate…

In 1993, Baxter gave $2^{m_Q}$ eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the $N$-state superintegrable chiral Potts model with spin-translation quantum number $Q$, where $m_Q=\lfloor(NL-L-Q)/N\rfloor$. In our previous paper we studied the Q=0…
