Abstract: The mutually commuting $1imesn$ fused single and double-row transfer matrices of the critical six-vertex model are considered at roots of unity $q=e^{ilambda}$ with crossing parameter $lambda=frac(p^{\prime }-p)pi{p}^{\prime }$ a rational fraction of $pi$. The $1imesn$ transfer matrices of the dense loop model analogs, namely the logarithmic minimal models $calLM(p,p^{\prime })$, are similarly considered. For these $sell(2)$ models, we find explicit closure relations for the $T$-system functional equations and obtain extended sets of bilinear $T$-system identities. We also define extended $Q$ matrices as linear combinations of the fused transfer matrices and obtain extended matrix $T$-$Q$ relations. These results hold for diagonal twisted boundary conditions on the cylinder as well as $U_q(sell(2))$ invariant/Kac vacuum and off-diagonal/Robin vacuum boundary conditions on the strip. Using our extended $T$-system and extended $T$-$Q$ relations for eigenvalues, we deduce the usual scalar Baxter $T$-$Q$ relation and the Bazhanov-Mangazeev decomposition of the fused transfer matrices $T^n(u+lambda)$ and $D^n(u+lambda)$, at fusion level $n=p^{\prime }-1$, in terms of the product $Q^{+}(u)Q^{-}(u)$ or $Q(u{)}^2$. It follows that the zeros of $T^{p^{\prime }-1}(u+lambda)$ and $D^{p^{\prime }-1}(u+lambda)$ are comprised of the Bethe roots and complete $p^{\prime }$ strings. We also clarify the formal observations of Pronko and Yang-Nepomechie-Zhang and establish, under favourable conditions, the existence of an infinite fusion limit $noinfty$ in the auxiliary space of the fused transfer matrices. Despite this connection, the infinite-dimensional oscillator representations are not needed at roots of unity due to finite closure of the functional equations.
