Abstract:
We continue our systematic construction of Baxter Q-operators for spin
chains, which is based on certain degenerate solutions of the Yang-Baxter
equation. Here we generalize our approach from the fundamental representation
of gl(n) to generic finite-dimensional representations in quantum space. The
results equally apply to non-compact representations of highest or lowest
weight type. We furthermore fill an apparent gap in the literature, and provide
the nearest-neighbor Hamiltonians of the spin chains in question for all cases
where the gl(n) representations are described by rectangular Young diagrams, as
well as for their infinite-dimensional generalizations. They take the form of
digamma functions depending on operator-valued shifted weights.
