Abstract: Using the representation theory of Yangians we construct the rational R-matrix which takes values in the adjoint representation of SU(n). From this we derive an integrable SU(n) spin chain with lattice spins transforming under the adjoint representation. However, the resulting Hamiltonian is found to be non-Hermitian.

Review text

Using the representation theory of Yangians [\textit{V. Chari} and \textit{A. Pressley}, Enseign. Math. (2) 36, No. 3--4, 267--302 (1990; Zbl 0726.17013); J. Reine Angew. Math. 417, 87--128 (1991; Zbl 0726.17014)], the authors construct the rational \(R\)-matrix which takes values in the adjoint representation of \(\mathrm{SU}(n)\) and derive an integrable \(\mathrm{SU}(n)\) spin chain with lattice spins transforming under the adjoint representation. It is shown that the resulting Hamiltonian is non-Hermitian.
