We show that the canonical random-cluster measure associated to isoradial graphs is critical for all q≥1. Additionally, we prove that the phase transition of the model is of the same type on all isoradial graphs: continuous for 1≤q≤4 and discontinuous for q>4. For 1≤q≤4, the arm exponents (assuming their existence) are shown to be the same for all isoradial graphs. In particular,...

In this paper, we review a few known facts on the coordinate Bethe ansatz. We present a detailed construction of the Bethe ansatz vector ψ and energy Λ, which satisfy Vψ=Λψ, where V is the transfer matrix of the six-vertex model on a finite square lattice with periodic boundary conditions for weights a=b=1 and c>0. We also show that the same vector ψ satisfies Hψ=Eψ, where H is the...
