“…The thermodynamical limit of the determinant is considered for XXZ model with a diagonal open boundary condition [23]. Recently, The determinant representations of the scalar products and correlation functions are extensively studied for models related to various boundary conditions especially those with non-diagonal boundary terms [7,24,25,26,27,28,29,30]. Among them, the seperation of variables(SOV) method [7,32,33] gives an attractive approach to obtain the determinant representations of the scalar product between an eigenstate and an arbitrary state with the open boundary conditions.…”
