Functional relations and analytic Bethe ansatz for twisted quantum affine algebras. (English) Zbl 0855.17023

Summary: Functional relations are proposed for transfer matrices of solvable vertex models associated with the twisted quantum affine algebras \(U_q (X_n^{(\kappa)})\), where \(X_n^{(\kappa)}= A_n^{(2)}\), \(D_n^{(2)}\), \(E_6^{(2)}\) and \(D_4^{(3)}\). Their solutions are obtained for \(A_n^{(2)}\) and conjectured for \(D_4^{(3)}\) in the dressed vacuum form of the analytic Bethe ansatz.
