Abstract: Integrable lattice models is a fascinating device. On one hand, they are purely combinatorial; the weighted sums over lattice states — partition functions — have rich structure. On another hand, integrability condition guarantees that these partition functions will satisfy various recursive relations which makes it possible to compute them exactly.
