| * ABSTRACT | |||||||
| These two lectures will be a pedagogical introduction to the subject of exactly solvable two-dimensional lattice models in statistical mechanics — both in the bulk and in the presence of a boundary. The famous Yang-Baxter equation will be introduced along with the boundary Yang-Baxter equation. It will be explained how these lead to commuting transfer matrices and exact integrability through functional equations. The application of these methods will be illustrated in the case of A-D-E lattice models. | |||||||
