Universal Lax pairs for Spin Calogero-Moser Models and Spin Exchange Models

TL;DR

This paper introduces universal Lax pairs for spin Calogero-Moser and spin exchange models across all root systems and potentials, enabling the construction of conserved quantities for degenerate cases.

Contribution

It provides a unified framework with Lax pairs for spin models associated with any root system and representation, extending known models like Haldane-Shastry.

Findings

Universal Lax pairs constructed for all root systems and potentials.

Conserved quantities can be generated for degenerate potentials.

Reduces to Haldane-Shastry model for specific cases.

Abstract

For any root system $\Delta$ and an irreducible representation ${\cal R}$ of the reflection (Weyl) group $G_\Delta$ generated by $\Delta$, a {\em spin Calogero-Moser model} can be defined for each of the potentials: rational, hyperbolic, trigonometric and elliptic. For each member $\mu$ of ${\cal R}$, to be called a "site", we associate a vector space ${\bf V}_{\mu}$ whose element is called a "spin". Its dynamical variables are the canonical coordinates $\{q_j,p_j\}$ of a particle in ${\bf R}^r$, ($r=$ rank of $\Delta$), and spin exchange operators $\{\hat{\cal P}_\rho\}$ ($\rho\in\Delta$) which exchange the spins at the sites $\mu$ and $s_{\rho}(\mu)$. Here $s_\rho$ is the reflection generated by $\rho$. For each $\Delta$ and ${\cal R}$ a {\em spin exchange model} can be defined. The Hamiltonian of a spin exchange model is a linear combination of the spin exchange operators only. It is obtained by "freezing" the canonical variables at the equilibrium point of the corresponding classical Calogero-Moser model. For $\Delta=A_r$ and ${\cal R}=$ vector representation it reduces to the well-known Haldane-Shastry model. Universal Lax pair operators for both spin Calogero-Moser models and spin exchange models are presented which enable us to construct as many conserved quantities as the number of sites for {\em degenerate} potentials.
