Finite type modules and Bethe ansatz equations

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We introduce and study a category extFin of modules of the Borel subalgebra of a quantum affine algebra Uqmathfrakg, where the commutative algebra of Drinfeld generators hi,r, corresponding to Cartan currents, has finitely many characteristic values. This category is a natural extension of the category of finite-dimensional Uqmathfrakg modules. In particular, we classify the irreducible objects, discuss their properties, and describe the combinatorics of the q-characters. We study transfer matrices corresponding to modules in extFin. Among them we find the Baxter Qi operators and Ti operators satisfying relations of the form TiQi=prodjQj+prodkQk. We show that these operators are polynomials of the spectral parameter after a suitable normalization. This allows us to prove the Bethe ansatz equations for the zeroes of the eigenvalues of the Qi operators acting in an arbitrary finite-dimensional representation of Uqmathfrakg.
