Abstract

A new analysis is made of the symmetry group of the general homogeneous 16-vertex model on a square lattice, i.e. the group of transformations in the parameter space of the model leaving invariant its partition function. The set of 16 vertex weights is decomposed in such a way that the ensuing matrix P of 16 composite parameters transforms according to the group of Lorentz similarity transformations. Equivalence classes of models can be characterized by a suitably chosen ‘normal’ matrix P(n), depending on 10 parameters, four having the significance of principle values, and the remaining six (two angles and two 3-dimensional unit vectors) determining a Lorentz transformation. The analysis is applied to the general eight-vertex model as well as to its soluble subclasses, the symmetric eight-vertex model, the general six-vertex model and the free fermion model.
