String-charge duality in integrable lattice models

We present an identification of the spectra of local conserved operators of integrable quantum lattice models and the density distributions of their thermodynamic particle content. This is derived explicitly for the Heisenberg XXZ spin chain. As an application we discuss a quantum quench scenario, in both the gapped and critical regimes. We outline an exact technique which allows for an efficient implementation on periodic matrix product states. In addition, for certain simple product states we obtain closed-form expressions for the density distributions in terms of solutions to Hirota difference equations. Remarkably, no reference to a maximal entropy principle is invoked.
