On the spectrum of six-vertex corner transfer matrices
We consider the eigenstates of the six-vertex corner transfer matrix using its generator, which is an operator of Heisenberg XXZ type. In the ordered regime, we construct a complete set of fundamental eigenstates, and some Bethe Ansatz eigenstates as well. In the disordered (critical) regime, the spectrum of the finite size system collapses in the thermodynamic limit, and we show how this depends on In M (the size of the system) and Δ.
