    Abstract

    In this proceeding we present the nested Bethe ansatz for open spin chains of
    XXX-type, with arbitrary representations (i.e. `spins') on each site of the
    chain and diagonal boundary matrices $(K^+(u),K^-(u))$. The nested Bethe anstaz
    applies for a general $K^-(u)$, but a particular form of the $K^+(u)$ matrix.
    We give the eigenvalues, Bethe equations and the form of the Bethe vectors for
    the corresponding models. The Bethe vectors are expressed using a trace
    formula.

  2. The MacMahon Master Theorem for right quantum superalgebras and higher Sugawara operators for \hat gl(m|n).

    Abstract

    We prove an analogue of the MacMahon Master Theorem for the right quantum
    superalgebras. In particular, we obtain a new and simple proof of this theorem
    for the right quantum algebras. In the super case the theorem is then used to
    construct higher order Sugawara operators for the affine Lie superalgebra \hat
    gl(m|n) in an explicit form. The operators are elements of a completed
    universal enveloping algebra of \hat gl(m|n) at the critical level. They occur
    as the coefficients in the expansion of a noncommutative Berezinian and as the
    traces of powers of generator matrices.

  3. Scattering matrix for a general gl(2) spin chain.

    Abstract

    We study the general L_0-regular gl(2) spin chain, i.e. a chain where the
    sites {i,i+L_0,i+2L_0,...} carry the same arbitrary representation (spin) of
    gl(2). The basic example of such chain is obtained for L_0=2, where we recover
    the alternating spin chain.

    Firstly, we review different known results about their integrability and
    their spectrum. Secondly, we give an interpretation in terms of particles and
    conjecture the scattering matrix between them.
