Abstract

In this paper, for supersymmetric quantum integrable spin chains with rational \(Gl(N|M)\)-invariant \(R\)-matrices, we construct a coupled master \(T\)-operator which represents a generating function for two-folds commuting quantum transfer matrices. We show that the functional relations for the quantum transfer matrices are equivalent to an infinite set of Hirota bilinear equations of the modified universal character hierarchy. Also the free fermion representation of the tau function of the supersymmetric quantum two-component spin chains will be given with the help of two sets of Clifford algebras.
