The sl_2 loop algebra symmetry of the six-vertex model at roots of unity

Abstract

We demonstrate that the six vertex model (XXZ spin chain) with $\Delta =(q+q^{-1})/2$ and $q^{2N}=1$ has an invariance under the loop algebra of $s{l}_2$ which produces a special set of degenerate eigenvalues. For $\Delta =0$ we compute the multiplicity of the degeneracies using Jordan Wigner techniques

arXiv comment29 pages Several proofs and a new result for the XYZ model have been added
