Abstract

The construction of the Q-operator for twisted affine superalgebra U q (C (2)(2)) is given. It is shown that the corresponding prefundamental representations give rise to evaluation modules some of which do not have a classical limit, which nevertheless appear to be a necessary part of fusion relations.
