Abstract

A summary of the construction procedure of generalized versions of Baxter's Q-operator is given. Illustrated by several figures and diagrams the use of representation theory is explained step-by-step avoiding technical details. The relation with the infinite-dimensional non-abelian symmetries of the six-vertex model at roots of unity is discussed and parallels with the eight-vertex case outlined.
