Abstract
We assess the ODE/IM correspondence for the quantum \({\mathfrak{g}}\)-KdV model, for a non-simply laced Lie algebra \({\mathfrak{g}}\). This is done by studying a meromorphic connection with values in the Langlands dual algebra of the affine Lie algebra \({{\mathfrak{g}}^{(1)}}\), and constructing the relevant \({\Psi}\)-system among subdominant solutions. We then use the \({\Psi}\)-system to prove that the generalized spectral determinants satisfy the Bethe Ansatz equations of the quantum \({\mathfrak{g}}\)-KdV model. We also consider generalized Airy functions for twisted Kac–Moody algebras and we construct new explicit solutions to the Bethe Ansatz equations. The paper is a continuation of our previous work on the ODE/IM correspondence for simply-laced Lie algebras.
