Abstract:
We consider integrable open chain models formulated in terms of
the generators of affine Hecke algebras. We use the fusion procedure to construct
the hierarchy of commutative elements, which are analogues of the commutative
transfer matrices. These elements satisfy a set of functional relations
generalizing functional relations for a family of transfer matrices in
solvable spin chain models of the $U_q(gl(n|m))$ type.
