We review the exact results on the various critical regimes of the antiferromagnetic $Q$-state Potts model. We focus on the Bethe Ansatz approach for generic $Q$, and describe in each case the effective degrees of freedom appearing in the continuum limit.

We construct lattice parafermions for the $Z(N)$ chiral Potts model in terms of quasi-local currents of the underlying quantum group. We show that the conservation of the quantum group currents leads to twisted discrete-holomorphicity (DH) conditions for the parafermions. At the critical Fateev-Zamolodchikov point the parafermions are the usual ones, and the DH conditions coincide with those found previously by Rajabpour and Cardy. Away from the critical point, we show that our twisted DH conditions can be understood as deformed lattice current conservation conditions for an underlying perturbed conformal field theory in both the general $Ngeq 3$ and $N=2$ Ising cases.
We extend a recent analysis of the $q$-states Potts model on an ensemble of random planar graphs with $pleqslant q$ allowed, equally weighted, spins on a connected boundary. In this paper we explore the $(q<4,pleqslant q)$ parameter space of finite-sheeted resolvents and derive the associated critical exponents. By definition a value of $q$ is allowed if there is a $p=1$ solution, and we reproduce the long-known result that $q= 2(1+cos{frac{m}{n} pi})$ with $m,n$ coprime. In addition we find that there are two distinct sequences of solutions, one of which contains $p=2$ and $p=q/2$ while the other does not. The boundary condition $p=3$ appears only for $q=3$ which also has a $p=3/2$ boundary condition; we conjecture that this new solution corresponds in the scaling limit to the New boundary condition, discovered on the flat lattice by Affleck et al. We also explore Kramers-Wannier duality for $q=3$ in this context and explicitly construct the known boundary conditions; we show that the mixed boundary condition is dual to a boundary condition on dual graphs that corresponds to Affleck et als identification of the New boundary condition on fixed lattices. On the other hand we find that the mixed boundary condition of the dual, and the corresponding New boundary condition of the original theory are not described by conventional resolvents.
We compute the partition function of the $q$-states Potts model on a random planar lattice with $pleq q$ allowed, equally weighted colours on a connected boundary. To this end, we employ its matrix model representation in the planar limit, generalising a result by Voiculescu for the addition of random matrices to a situation beyond free probability theory. We show that the partition functions with $p$ and $q-p$ colours on the boundary are related algebraically. Finally, we investigate the phase diagram of the model when $0leq qleq 4$ and comment on the conformal field theory description of the critical points.
Monodromy matrices of the $tau_2$ model are known to satisfy a Yang--Baxter equation with a six-vertex $R$-matrix as the intertwiner. The commutation relations of the elements of the monodromy matrices are completely determined by this $R$-matrix. We show the reason why in the superintegrable case the eigenspace is degenerate, but not in the general case. We then show that the eigenspaces of special CSOS models descending from the chiral Potts model are also degenerate. The existence of an $L({mathfrak{sl}}_2)$ quantum loop algebra (or subalgebra) in these models is established by showing that the Serre relations hold for the generators. The highest weight polynomial (or the Drinfeld polynomial) of the representation is obtained by using the method of Baxter for the superintegrable case. As a byproduct, the eigenvalues of all such CSOS models are given explicitly.
We obtain long series expansions for the bulk, surface and corner free energies for several two-dimensional statistical models, by combining Entings finite lattice method (FLM) with exact transfer matrix enumerations. The models encompass all integrable curves of the Q-state Potts model on the square and triangular lattices, including the antiferromagnetic transition curves and the Ising model (Q=2) at temperature T, as well as a fully-packed O(n) type loop model on the square lattice. The expansions are around the trivial fixed points at infinite Q, n or 1/T. By using a carefully chosen expansion parameter, q << 1, all expansions turn out to be of the form prod_{k=1}^infty (1-q^k)^{alpha_k + k beta_k}, where the coefficients alpha_k and beta_k are periodic functions of k. Thanks to this periodicity property we can conjecture the form of the expansions to all orders (except in a few cases where the periodicity is too large). These expressions are then valid for all 0 <= q < 1. We analyse in detail the q to 1^- limit in which the models become critical. In this limit the divergence of the corner free energy defines a universal term which can be compared with the conformal field theory (CFT) predictions of Cardy and Peschel. This allows us to deduce the asymptotic expressions for the correlation length in several cases. Finally we work out the FLM formulae for the case where some of the systems boundaries are endowed with particular (non-free) boundary conditions. We apply this in particular to the square-lattice Potts model with Jacobsen-Saleur boundary conditions, conjecturing the expansions of the surface and corner free energies to arbitrary order for any integer value of the boundary interaction parameter r. These results are in turn compared with CFT predictions.
