The integrable open-boundary conditions for the one-dimensional Bariev
chain are considered. The diagonal boundary K matrices are found and
the commuting transfer matrix is constructed. Since the local monodrom
y matrix as well as the quantum R matrix do not possess the crossing s
ymmetry, our construction shows that Sklyanin's formalism may be exten
ded to apply to any one-dimensional systems integrable by the quantum
inverse scattering method.
