Italian workshop on quantum groups

The first ``Convegno Informale su Quantum Groups'' was held in Florence from February 3 to 6, 1993. This Convegno was conceived as an informal meeting to bring together all the italian people working in the field of quantum groups and related topics. We are very happy indeed that about 30 theoretical physicists decided to take part presenting many aspects of this interesting and live subject of research. We thank all the participants for the stimulating and nice atmosphere that has characterized the meeting. This paper has the intent to give a quick review in english of the contributions and related references. We think useful to include the complete addresses and coordinate data of the participants. It is our intention to diffuse these proceedings by e-mail trough electronic data banks.

Heisenberg XXZ Model and Quantum Galilei Group

The 1D Heisenberg spin chain with anisotropy of the XXZ type is analyzed in terms of the symmetry given by the quantum Galilei group Gamma_q(1). We show that the magnon excitations and the s=1/2, n-magnon bound states are determined by the algebra. Thus the Gamma_q(1) symmetry provides a description that naturally induces the Bethe Ansatz. The recurrence relations determined by Gamma_q(1) permit to express the energy of the n-magnon bound states in a closed form in terms of Tchebischeff polynomials.

Quantum Galilei Group as Symmetry of Magnons

Inhomogeneous quantum groups are shown to be an effective algebraic tool in the study of integrable systems and to provide solutions equivalent to the Bethe ansatz. The method is illustrated on the 1D Heisenberg ferromagnet whose symmetry is shown to be the quantum Galilei group Gamma_q(1) here introduced. Both the single magnon and the s=1/2 bound states of n-magnons are completely described by the algebra.

Inomogeneous Quantum Groups as Symmetries of Phonons

The quantum deformed (1+1) Poincare' algebra is shown to be the kinematical symmetry of the harmonic chain, whose spacing is given by the deformation parameter. Phonons with their symmetries as well as multiphonon processes are derived from the quantum group structure. Inhomogeneous quantum groups are thus proposed as kinematical invariance of discrete systems.
