Abstract

We consider the probability to find a string of x adjacent parallel spins in the antiferromagnetic ground state of the model (in a magnetic field). We derive a system of integro-difference equations which define this probability. This system is completely integrable, it has Lax representation and a corresponding Riemann-Hilbert problem. The quantum correlation function is a τ-function of this system.
