The book explores the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method applied to the XXX and XXZ spin chains with various boundary fields. It emphasizes the algebraic framework combining Yang-Baxter and Reflection algebras, addressing both diagonal and non-diagonal boundary conditions. While diagonal fields have been extensively studied through the algebraic Bethe ansatz, the author extends these findings to arbitrary chain lengths via non-linear integral equations. For non-diagonal fields, the separation of variables method is utilized, and a fusion hierarchy approach is introduced to derive non-linear integral equations for eigenvalue extraction.
