On connection matrices of quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations based on Lie super algebras


Abstract in English

We propose a new method to compute connection matrices of quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations associated to integrable vertex models with super algebra and Hecke algebra symmetries. The scheme relies on decomposing the underlying spin representation of the affine Hecke algebra in principal series modules and invoking the known solution of the connection problem for quantum affine Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations associated to principal series modules. We apply the method to the spin representation underlying the $mathcal{U}_qbigl(hat{mathfrak{gl}}(2|1)bigr)$ Perk-Schultz model. We show that the corresponding connection matrices are described by an elliptic solution of a supersymmetric version of the dynamical quantum Yang-Baxter equation with spectral parameter.
