The partition function of the six-vertex model as a
Fredholm determinant. Large N asymptotics.
Nikita Slavnov
Abstract: The partition function of the six-vertex homogeneous model
with domain wall boundary conditions is presented as a Fredholm
determinant of an integrable operator with the kernel
depending on Laguerre polynomials. This representation
allows to evaluate large N (the size of lattice) asymptotic
behavior of the partition function.
