Fusion $U_q(G^{(1)}_2)$ vertex models and analytic Bethe ans{\"a}tze

Abstract

We introduce fusion $U_q(G^{(1)}_2)$ vertex models related to fundamental representations. The eigenvalues of their row to row transfer matrices are derived through analytic Bethe ans{\"a}tze. By combining these results with our previous studies on functional relations among transfer matrices(the $T$-system), we conjecture explicit eigenvalues for a wide class of fusion models. These results can be neatly expressed in terms of a Yangian analogue of the Young tableaux.
