Classical functional Bethe ansatz for SL(N): Separation of variables for the magnetic chain

Abstract: The Functional Bethe Ansatz (FBA) proposed by Sklyanin is a method which gives separation variables for systems for which an R-matrix is known. Previously the FBA was only known for SL(2) and SL(3) (and associated) R-matrices. In this paper I advance Sklyanin's program by giving the FBA for certain systems with SL(N) R-matrices. This is achieved by constructing rational functions A(u) and B(u) of the matrix elements of T(u), so that, in the generic case, the zeros xi of B(u) are the separation coordinates and the Pi=A(xi) provide their conjugate momenta. The method is illustrated with the magnetic chain and the Gaudin model, and its wider applicability is discussed.
