Quantum groups in two-dimensional physics / César Gómez, Martí Ruiz-Altaba, Germán Sierra.

This book is an introduction to integrability and conformal field theory in two dimensions using quantum groups. The book begins with a brief introduction to S-matrices, spin chains and vertex models as a prelude to the study of Yang-Baxter algebras and the Bethe ansatz. The basic ideas of integrabl...
