Abstract
We consider the Forrester–Baxter RSOS lattice models with crossing parameter λ = (m′−m)π/m′ in Regime III. In the continuum scaling limit, these models are described by the minimal models . We conjecture that, for λ < π/n, the n × n fused RSOS models with are described by the higher-level coset at fractional level k = nM/(M′−M)−2 with . To support this conjecture, we investigate the one-dimensional sums arising from Baxter’s off-critical corner transfer matrices. In unitary cases (m = m′−1) it is known that, up to leading powers of q, these coincide with the branching functions . For general nonunitary cases (m < m′−1), we identify the ground state one-dimensional RSOS paths and relate them to the quantum numbers (r, s, ℓ) in the various sectors. For n = 1, 2, 3, we obtain the local energy functions H(a, b, c) in a suitable gauge and verify that the associated one-dimensional sums produce finitized forms that converge, as N becomes large, to the fractional level branching functions . Extending the work of Schilling, we also conjecture finitized bosonic branching functions for general n and check that these agree with the one-dimensional sums for n = 1, 2, 3 out to system sizes N = 14. Lastly, the finitized Kac characters of the n × n fused logarithmic minimal models are obtained by taking the logarithmic limit with m′/m→p′/p+.
