Algebraic Bethe Ansatz approach to form factors and correlation functions of the cyclic eight-vertex solid-on-solid model

Abstract

We consider the problem of the exact computation of the correlation functions of the eight-vertex solid-on-solid model by means of the algebraic Bethe Ansatz. We compute the scalar product between a Bethe eigenstate and an arbitrary state of Bethe type and show that, in the cyclic case, it can be formulated as a single determinant of usual functions. It allows us to obtain determinant representations for finite-size form factors. By summing up over the form factors, we also give a multiple integral representation for a generating function of the two-point function.
