چکیده

In this note we show that the single soliton solutions known previously in the 1 + 1 dimensional affine Toda field theories from a variety of different methods [1, 2, 3, 4], are in fact not the most general single soliton solutions. We exhibit single soliton solutions with additional small parameters which reduce to the previously known solutions when these extra parameters are set to zero. The new solution has the same mass and topological charges as the standard solution when these parameters are set to zero. However we cannot yet completely rule out the possibility that other solutions with larger values of these extra parameters are non-singular, in the cases where the number of extra parameters is greater than one, and if so their topological charges would most likely be different.

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.

Conserved charges and soliton solutions in affine Toda theory

We study the conserved charges of affine Toda field theories by making use of the conformally invariant extension of these theories. We compute the values of all charges for the single soliton solutions, and show that these are related to eigenvectors of the Cartan matrix of the finite-dimensional Lie algebra underlying the theory.

Inverse scattering and solitons in An−1 affine Toda field theories II

New single soliton solutions to the affine Toda field theories are constructed, exhibiting previously unobserved topological charges. This goes some of the way in filling the weights of the fundamental representations, but nevertheless holes in the representations remain. We use the group doublecross product form of the inverse scattering method, and restrict ourselves to the rank one solutions.

Reality of Complex Affine Toda Solitons

There are infinitely many topological solitons in any given complex affine Toda theories and most of them have complex energy density. When we require the energy density of the solitons to be real, we find that the reality condition is related to a simple " pairing condition. " Unfortunately, rather few soliton solutions in these theories survive the reality constraint, especially if one also d...

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...
