A discrete analogue of periodic delta Bose gas and affine Hecke algebra

Abstract

We consider an eigenvalue problem for a discrete analogue of the Hamiltonian of the non-ideal Bose gas with delta-potentials on a circle. It is a two-parameter deformation of the discrete Hamiltonian for joint moments of the partition function of the O'Connell-Yor semi-discrete polymer. We construct the propagation operator by using integral-reflection operators, which give a representation of the affine Hecke algebra. We also construct eigenfunctions by means of the Bethe ansatz method.
