The algebraic Bethe ansatz for open A_{2n}^{(2)} vertex model

Abstract

We solve the $A_{2n}^{(2)}$ vertex model with all kinds of diagonal reflecting matrices by using the algebraic Behe ansatz, which includes constructing the multi-particle states and achieving the eigenvalue of the transfer matrix and corresponding Bethe ansatz equations. When the model is $U_q(B_n)$ quantum invariant, our conclusion agrees with that obtained by analytic Bethe ansatz method.
