Abstract

We study certain non-symmetric wavefunctions associated to the quantum nonlinear Schrödinger (QNLS) model, introduced by Komori and Hikami using representations of the degenerate
affine Hecke algebra. In particular, they can be generated using a vertex operator formalism analogous to the recursion that defines the symmetric QNLS wavefunction in the quantum inverse scattering method. Furthermore, some of the commutation relations encoded in the Yang-Baxter equation are generalized to the non-symmetric case.
