Scattering and Duality in the 2 Dimensional Osp (2|2) Gross Neveu and Sigma Models

We write the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz for the massive OSp(2|2) Gross Neveu and sigma models. We find evidence that the GN S matrix proposed by Bassi and Leclair [12] is the correct one. We determine features of the sigma model S matrix, which seem highly unconventional; we conjecture in particular a relation between this sigma model and the complex sine-Gordon model at a particular value of t...

The Geometry of Supersymmetric D = 2 Nonlinear Sigma Models

This paper will consider supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models in two space-time dimensions. First, the rich variety of possible supersymmetries in two dimensions will be discussed. Next, a slight detour into some complex geometry will be taken to gather some useful definitions and results. Finally, it will be shown that requiring the sigma model to have extended supersymmetry imposes various g...

Supersymmetric Nonlinear Sigma Models as Gauge Theories

Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints are expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending on the target manifolds. Auxiliary vector superfields appears as gauge fields without kinetic terms. If there is no D-term constraints, the target manifolds ar...

New duality transformation in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models

A new T-duality transformation is found in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models. This is a straightforward generalisation of Abelian and non-Abelian T-dualities. It is shown, in particular, that a given non-linear sigma model can possess more than one dual theory. Finally, the construction of this duality is given a geometrical interpretation. e-mail: [email protected] CNRS UMR ...

Exact duality transformations for sigma models and gauge theories

We present an exact duality transformation in the framework of Statistical Mechanics for various lattice models with non-Abelian global or local symmetries. The transformation applies to sigma models with variables in a compact Lie group G with global G×G-symmetry (the chiral model) and with variables in coset spaces G/H and a global G-symmetry (for example, the non-linear O(N) or RPN models) i...
