We develop a new approach to Baxter Q-operators by relating them to the theory of Yangians, which are the simplest examples for quantum groups. Here we open up a new chapter in this theory and study certain degenerate solutions of the…

The off-diagonal Bethe Ansatz method [1] is used to revisit the periodic XXX Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain. It is found that the spectrum of the transfer matrix can be characterized by an inhomogeneous T-Q relation, a natural but nontrivial…

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…

We construct the explicit $Q$-operator incorporated with the $sl_2$-loop-algebra symmetry of the six-vertex model at roots of unity. The functional relations involving the $Q$-operator, the six-vertex transfer matrix and fusion matrices are…

Baxter's $T-Q$ relation for the periodic spin-$\frac12$ XYZ chain is studied. We extensively perform numerical calculations for the $T-Q$ relation and the Bethe ansatz equations. Numerical based hypotheses are then proposed to answer some…

We provide two methods of producing the $Q$-operator of XXZ spin chain of higher spin, one for $N$th root-of-unity $q$ with odd $N$ and another for a general $q$, as the generalization of those known in the six-vertex model. In the…

We develop an approach for constructing the Baxter Q-operators for generic sl(N) spin chains. The key element of our approach is the possibility to represent a solution of the the Yang Baxter equation in the factorized form. We prove that…

We derive a novel multiple integral representation for a generating function of the $\s^z$-$\s^z$ correlation functions of the spin-$\2$ XXZ chain at finite temperature and finite, longitudinal magnetic field. Our work combines algebraic…

We propose a generalization of the Baxter T-Q relation which involves more than one independent Q(u). We argue that the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the open XXZ quantum spin chain are given by such generalized T-Q relations, for…

We consider the open spin-s XXZ quantum spin chain with nondiagonal boundary terms. By exploiting certain functional relations at roots of unity, we derive a generalized form of T-Q relation involving more than one independent Q(u), which…

We propose the operatorial form of Baxter's TQ-relations in a general form of the operatorial B\"acklund flow describing the nesting process for the inhomogeneous rational gl(K|M) quantum (super)spin chains with twisted periodic boundary…

Integrable open quantum spin-chain transfer matrices constructed from trigonometric R-matrices associated to affine Lie algebras $\hat g$, and from certain K-matrices (reflection matrices) depending on a discrete parameter p, were recently…

We have recently constructed a large class of open quantum spin chains which have quantum-algebra symmetry and which are integrable. We show here that these models can be exactly solved using a generalization of the analytical Bethe Ansatz…

We solve the longstanding problem to define a functional characterization of the spectrum of the transfer matrix associated to the most general spin-1/2 representations of the 6-vertex reflection algebra for general inhomogeneous chains.…

We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of spin-spin correlation functions for the integrable Heisenberg chain. To this end we use the Quantum Transfer Matrix (QTM) technique developed in \cite{AK} which results in a set of non-linear…

We study integrable vertex models and quantum spin chains with toroidal boundary conditions. An interesting class of such boundaries is associated with non-diagonal twist matrices. For such models there are no trivial reference states upon…

We introduce a category $\mathcal O$ of representations of the elliptic quantum group associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ with well-behaved $q$-character theory. We derive separation of variables relations for asymptotic representations in…

We review recent results on the Bethe Ansatz solutions for the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of an integrable open XXZ quantum spin chain using functional relations which the transfer matrix obeys at roots of unity. First, we consider…

Baxter's TQ-equation is solved for the six-vertex model using the representation theory of quantum groups at roots of unity. A novel simplified construction of the Q-operator is given depending on a new free parameter. Specializing this…

Using the algebraic Bethe ansatz method, and the solution of the quantum inverse scattering problem for local spins, we obtain multiple integral representations of the $n$-point correlation functions of the XXZ Heisenberg spin-$1 \over 2$…
