Systematic classical continuum limits of integrable spin chains and emerging novel dualities

We examine certain classical continuum long wave-length limits of prototype integrable quantum spin chains. We define the corresponding construction of classical continuum Lax operators. Our discussion starts with the XXX chain, the anisotropic Heisenberg model and their generalizations and extends to the generic isotropic and anisotropic gln magnets. Certain classical and quantum integrable models emerging from special “dualities” of quantum spin chains, parametrized by c-number matrices, are also presented.
