Lattice Integrals of Motion of the Ising Model on the Cylinder

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that the transfer matrix of the 2D critical Ising model on a cylinder can be expressed as a polynomial in a specific variable, with coefficients linked to lattice integrals of motion, revealing new algebraic structures.

Contribution

It introduces a reparametrization of Boltzmann weights that expresses the transfer matrix as a polynomial in sc(4u), connecting it to the periodic Temperley-Lieb Algebra and lattice integrals of motion.

Findings

Transfer matrix is a polynomial in sc(4u) for the critical Ising model.

Coefficients are decomposed on the periodic Temperley-Lieb Algebra.

Lattice version of local integrals of motion is introduced.

Abstract

We consider the 2D critical Ising model with spatially periodic boundary conditions. It is shown that for a suitable reparametrization of the known Boltzmann weights the transfer matrix becomes a polynomial in the variable $\csc(4u)$, being $u$ the spectral parameter. The coefficients of this polynomial are decomposed on the periodic Temperley-Lieb Algebra by introducing a lattice version of the Local Integrals of Motion.
