New solutions to the Reflection Equation and the projecting method

New integrable boundary conditions for integrable quantum systems can be constructed by tuning of scattering phases due to reflection at a boundary and an adjacent impurity and subsequent projection onto sub-spaces. We illustrate this mechanism by considering a gl(m<n)-impurity attached to an open gl(n)-invariant quantum chain and a Kondo spin S coupled to the supersymmetric t-J model.
