“Algebraic Bethe Ansatz, Yang-Baxter Equation and All That” by Prof. Yunfeng JIANG on Tuesday, February 24 – 26, 2026, CYM105/CYM522, HKU

This lecture series provides a systematic introduction to the Algebraic Bethe Ansatz (ABA), also known as the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method (QISM): a powerful framework for solving quantum integrable models exactly. We will begin with its basic construction, demonstrating how to obtain the exact spectra of paradigmatic models such as the Heisenberg spin chain, the Lieb-Liniger model, and the 6-vertex model. We will then explore the rich mathematical structure underlying the method, focusing on the central role of the Yang-Baxter equation and its profound connection to quantum group theory. If time permits, we will discuss extensions of the formalism to compute dynamical quantities, such as form factors and correlation functions, illustrating the full power of ABA as a tool for non-perturbative analysis in quantum theory.
