The Large N Limits of the Chiral Potts Model Helen Au - Yang and Jacques
نویسنده
چکیده
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. These solutions are expected to be chiral-field lattice deformations of parafermionic conformal field theories. A new two-sided hypergeometric identity is derived as a corollary.

Chiral Potts model as a discrete quantum sine-Gordon model
Helen Au-Yang Eigenvectors of the superintegrable chiral Potts model We show that the eigenspaces of eigenvalues (1−ωt)+ω(1− t) of the τ2(t) matrix of size N×N are degenerate. In the Q = 0 case, it has 2 independent eigenvectors, where r = L(N − 1)/N and L is chosen to be a multiple of N . They can be written in terms of the generators of r simple sl2 algebras, E±m and Hm (m = 1, · · · , r). Ne...
متن کاملThree-state chiral Potts models on the triangular lattice: a Monte Carlo study
The q-state chiral Potts model can describe systems that exhibit rich phase diagrams (see, for instance, ref. [l]) and interesting physical properties like commensurate-incommensurate transitions [2]. The chiral Potts model has been extensively studied in the last few years from the point of view of exactly solvable models. Au-Yang et al. discovered integrable cases for the q-state chiral Potts...
متن کاملThe superintegrable chiral Potts quantum chain and generalized Chebyshev polynomials
Finite-dimensional representations of Onsager’s algebra are characterized by the zeros of truncation polynomials. The ZN -chiral Potts quantum chain hamiltonians (of which the Ising chain hamiltonian is the N = 2 case) are the main known interesting representations of Onsager’s algebra and the corresponding polynomials have been found by Baxter and Albertini, McCoy and Perk in 1987-89 consideri...
متن کاملThe Baxter Revolution
I review the revolutionary impact Rodney Baxter has had on statistical mechanics beginning with his solution of the 8 vertex model in 1971 and the invention of corner transfer matrices in 1976 to the creation of the RSOS models in 1984 and his continuing current work on the chiral Potts model.
متن کاملChiral Potts model and the discrete Sine-Gordon model at roots of unity
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 the model (which satisfies a difference property Yang-Baxter equation) naturally splits into a product of a singular “classical” part and a finite dimension...
