Global Aspects of the WZNW Reduction to Toda Theories
It is well-known that the Toda Theories can be obtained by reduction from the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model, but it is less known that this WZNW → Toda reduction is 'incomplete'. The reason for this incompleteness being that the Gauss decomposition used to define the Toda fields from the WZNW field is valid locally but not globally over the WZNW group manifold, which implies that actu...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Construction of W-Algebras from Super Toda and WZNW Theories
A systematic construction of super W-algebras in terms of the WZNW model based on a super Lie algebra is presented. These are shown to be the symmetry structure of the super Toda models, which can be obtained from the WZNW theory by Hamiltonian reduction. A classification, according to the conformal spin defined by an improved energymomentum tensor, is discussed in general terms for all super L...
متن کاملToda Theories as Contractions of Affine Toda Theories
Using a contraction procedure, we obtain Toda theories and their structures, from affine Toda theories and their corresponding structures. By structures, we mean the equation of motion, the classical Lax pair, the boundary term for half line theories, and the quantum transfer matrix. The Lax pair and the transfer matrix so obtained, depend nontrivially on the spectral parameter. A Toda field th...
متن کاملC2 Toda theory in the reduced WZNW framework
We consider the C 2 Toda theory in the reduced WZNW framework. Analysing the classical representation space of the symmetry algebra (which is the corresponding C 2 W algebra) we determine its classical highest weight representations. We quantise the model promoting only the relevant quantities to operators. Using the quantised equation of motion we determine the selection rules for the u field ...
متن کاملToda field theories
A simple, basic, argument is given, based solely on energy-momentum considerations to recover conditions under which ar affine or conformal Toda field theories can support defects of integrable type. Associated triangle relations are solved to provide expressions for transmission matrices that generalize previously known examples calculated for the sine-Gordon model and the a2 affine Toda model...
