Level two irreducible representations of $U_q(\widehat{sl}_2)$, vertex operators, and their correlations
Vertex operators associated with level two $U_q(\widehat{sl}_2)$ modules are constructed explicitly using bosons and fermions. An integral formula is derived for the trace of products of vertex operators. These results are applied to give $n$-point spin correlation functions of an integrable $S=1$ quantum spin chain, extending an earlier work of Jimbo {\em et al} for the case $S=1/2$.

Correlation functions of the spin-1 analog of the XXZ model
Exact integral representations of spin one-point functions (ground state expectation values) are reported for the spin-1 analog of the XXZ model in the region $-1<q<0$. The method enables one to calculate arbitrary $n$-point functions in principle. We also report a construction of level 2 irreducible highest weight representations of $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$ in terms of boson and fermion operators, and explicit forms of related vertex operators.

Quantum affine symmetry in vertex models
We study the higher spin anologs of the six vertex model on the basis of its symmetry under the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\slth)$. Using the method developed recently for the XXZ spin chain, we formulate the space of states, transfer matrix, vacuum, creation/annihilation operators of particles, and local operators, purely in the language of representation theory. We find that, regardless of the level of the representation involved, the particles have spin $1/2$, and that the $n$-particle space has an RSOS-type structure rather than a simple tensor product of the $1$-particle space. This agrees with the picture proposed earlier by Reshetikhin.
