Abstract

The spectral decomposition of the path space of the vertex model associated to the vector representation of the quantized affine algebra is studied. We give a one-to-one correspondence between the spin configurations and the semi-standard tableaux of skew Young diagrams. As a result we obtain a formula of the characters for the degeneracy of the spectrum in terms of skew Schur functions. We conjecture that our result describes the -module contents of the Yangian -module structures of the level 1 integrable modules of the affine Lie algebra . An analogous result is obtained also for a vertex model associated to the quantized twisted affine algebra , where characters appear for the degeneracy of the spectrum. The relation to the spectrum of the Haldane-Shastry and the Polychronakos models are also discussed.
