Thermodynamics and Form Factors of Supersymmetric Integrable Field Theories
نویسنده
چکیده
We study on-shell and off-shell properties of the supersymmetric sinh-Gordon and perturbed SUSY Yang-Lee models using the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and form factors. Identifying the supersymmetric models with the Eight Vertex Free Fermion Model, we derive inversion relation for inhomogeneous transfer matrix and TBA equations and get correct UV results. We obtain two-point form factors of the trace of energy-momentum tensor using the Watson equations and their SUSY transformations. As an application, we compute the UV central charge using these form factors and spectral representation of the Ctheorem.

2 N ov 1 99 5 Oct . 1995 Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz for N = 1 Supersymmetric Theories
We study a series of N = 1 supersymmetric integrable particle theories in d = 1 + 1 dimensions. These theories are represented as integrable perturbations of specific N = 1 superconformal field theories. Starting from the conjectured S-matrices for these theories, we develop the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA), where we use that the 2-particle S-matrices satisfy a free fermion condition. Our a...
متن کاملScattering and Thermodynamics in Integrable N=2 Theories
We study N=2 supersymmetric integrable theories with spontaneously-broken Zn symmetry. They have exact soliton masses given by the affine SU(n) Toda masses and fractional fermion numbers given by multiples of 1/n. The basic such N=2 integrable theory is the An-type N=2 minimal model perturbed by the most relevant operator. The soliton content and exact S-matrices are obtained using the Landau-G...
متن کاملScattering and Thermodynamics of Fractionally-Charged Supersymmetric Solitons
We show that there are solitons with fractional fermion number in integrable N=2 supersymmetric models. We obtain the soliton S-matrix for the minimal, N=2 supersymmetric theory perturbed in the least relevant chiral primary field, the Φ(1,3) superfield. The perturbed theory has a nice Landau-Ginzburg description with a Chebyshev polynomial superpotential. We show that the S-matrix is a tensor ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric integrable scattering theories with unstable particles
We propose scattering matrices for N=1 supersymmetric integrable quantum field theories in 1+1 dimensions which involve unstable particles in their spectra. By means of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz we analyze the ultraviolet behaviour of some of these theories and identify the effective Virasoro central charge of the underlying conformal field theories.
متن کامل93 N = 2 Supersymmetric Integrable Models and Topological Field Theories
These lectures review some of the basic properties of N = 2 superconformal field theories and the corresponding topological field theories. One of my basic aims is to show how the techniques of topological field theory can be used to compute effective LandauGinzburg potentials for perturbed N = 2 superconformal field theories. In particular, I will briefly discuss the application of these ideas...
