where the Boltzmann weights of the Chiral Potts model are given in product form. They satisfied the Star-Triangle relations and are therefore integrable. Its relation to six-vertex models and the representation of the Quantum groups are also briefly described. The transfer matrices also satisfy certain relations, which are called functional relations. These relations are very important which can be used to obtain the specific heat of the Chiral Potts model.
