Classically integrable boundary conditions for affine Toda field theories

affine Toda field theories with integrable boundary conditions revisited

Generic classically integrable boundary conditions for the A (1) n affine Toda field theories (ATFT) are investigated. The present analysis relies primarily on the underlying algebra, defined by the classical version of the reflection equation. We use as a prototype example the first non-trivial model of the hierarchy i.e. the A (1) 2 ATFT, however our results may be generalized for any A (1) n...

Soliton-preserving boundary condition in affine Toda field theories

We give a new integrable boundary condition in affine Toda theory which is soliton-preserving in the sense that a soliton hitting the boundary is reflected as a soliton. All previously known integrable boundary conditions forced a soliton to be converted into an antisoliton upon reflection. We prove integrability of our boundary condition using a generalization of Sklyanin’s formalism.

The ultraviolet Behaviour of Integrable Quantum Field Theories , Affine Toda Field Theory

We investigate the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) equations for a system of particles which dynamically interacts via the scattering matrix of affine Toda field theory and whose statistical interaction is of a general Haldane type. Up to the first leading order, we provide general approximated analytical expressions for the solutions of these equations from which we derive general formulae fo...
