A pedagogical introduction to quantum integrability, with a view towards theoretical high-energy physics
A pedagogical introduction to quantum integrability, with a view towards theoretical high-energy physics
These are lecture notes of an introduction to quantum integrability given at the Tenth Modave Summer School in Mathematical Physics, 2014, aimed at PhD candidates and junior researchers in theoretical physics. We introduce spin chains and discuss the coordinate Bethe ansatz (CBA) for a representative example: the Heisenberg XXZ model. …
