Baxter operators for the noncompact quantumsl(3) invariant spin chain

Zusammenfassung

The noncompact homogeneous sl(3) invariant spin chains are considered. We show that the transfer matrix with generic auxiliary space is factorized into the product of three sl(3) invariant commuting operators. These operators satisfy the finite difference equations in the spectral parameters which follow from the structure of the reducible sl(3) modules.
