Constrained integrability and anyonic chains (opens in new tab)

We review the notion of Yang-Baxter integrability for spin chains that have Hilbert spaces with constraints, such as a Rydberg blockade. We focus on anyonic chains, whose constraints arise from the fusion rules of the fusion categories on which they are based. We discuss the emergence of Temperley-Lieb algebras and present a new result on which types of anyonic chains exhibit them. We then give an overview of known results for integrable anyon...
