Abstract: (Elsevier)
A method is presented for applying the fusion procedure for solutions of the rational Yang-Baxter equation to R -matrices acting in the vector representation of SO( N ). As an application, new R -matrices acting in symmetric representations of SO( N ) are calculated. R -matrices acting in reducible representations containing the antisymmetric representations of SO( N ) are calculated. These are used to construct factorized S -matrices giving the scattering of particles in the principal chiral model. Connections with affine Toda field theory are discussed.
