The exact diagonalization of the diagonal-to-diagonal transfer matrix of an N-sublattice vertex model with interactions of the vertex-arrow type between sublattices is carried out using the generalized nested Bethe-ansatz method. An exact expression for the free energy is obtained involving the solution of an integral equation which is studied numerically. |
