Abstract

We present some symmetry and factorization relations satisfied by the corner transfer matrices (CTMs) of the chiral Potts model. We show how the single-spin expectation values can be expressed in terms of the CTMs, and in terms of the related boost operator. Low-temperature calculations lead naturally to the variables that uniformize the Boltzmann weights of the model.
