The two-boundary Temperley-Lieb algebra
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study a two-boundary extension of the Temperley-Lieb algebra which has recently arisen in statistical mechanics. This algebra lies in a quotient of the affine Hecke algebra of type C and has a natural diagrammatic representation. The algebra has three parameters and, for generic values of these, we determine its representation theory. We use the action of the centre of the affine Hecke algebra to show that all irreducible representations lie within a finite dimensional diagrammatic quotient. These representations are fully characterised by an additional parameter related to the action of the centre. For generic values of this parameter there is a unique representation of dimension 2N and we show that it is isomorphic to a tensor space representation. We construct a basis in which the Gram matrix is diagonal and use this to discuss the irreducibility of this representation. [email protected] [email protected]

The Temperley-Lieb algebra and its generalizations in the Potts and XXZ models
We discuss generalizations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra in the Potts and XXZ models. These can be used to describe the addition of different types of integrable boundary terms. We use the Temperley-Lieb algebra and its one-boundary, two-boundary, and periodic extensions to classify different integrable boundary terms in the 2, 3, and 4-state Potts models. The representations always lie at crit...
متن کاملThe Blob Algebra and the Periodic Temperley-lieb Algebra
We determine the structure of two variations on the Temperley-Lieb algebra, both used for dealing with special kinds of boundary conditions in statistical mechanics models. The first is a new algebra, the ‘blob’ algebra (the reason for the name will become obvious shortly!). We determine both the generic and all the exceptional structures for this two parameter algebra. The second is the period...
متن کاملBethe Ansatz for the Temperley-Lieb loop model with open boundaries
We diagonalise the Hamiltonian of the Temperley-Lieb loop model with open boundaries using a coordinate Bethe Ansatz calculation. We find that in the groundstate sector of the loop Hamiltonian, but not in other sectors, a certain constraint on the parameters has to be satisfied. This constraint has a natural interpretation in the Temperley-Lieb algebra with boundary generators. The spectrum of ...
متن کاملJunction Type Representations of the Temperley–Lieb Algebra and Associated Symmetries
Inspired by earlier works on representations of the Temperley–Lieb algebra we introduce a novel family of representations of the algebra. This may be seen as a generalization of the so called asymmetric twin representation. The underlying symmetry algebra is also examined and it is shown that in addition to certain obvious exact quantum symmetries non trivial quantum algebraic realizations that...
متن کاملN ov 2 00 4 One - boundary Temperley - Lieb algebras in the XXZ and loop models
We give an exact spectral equivalence between the quantum group invariant XXZ chain with arbitrary left boundary term and the same XXZ chain with purely diagonal boundary terms. This equivalence, and a further one with a link pattern Hamiltonian, can be understood as arising from different representations of the one-boundary Temperley-Lieb algebra. For a system of size L these representations a...
