Conservation laws for the classical Toda field theories

Abstract

We have performed some explicit calculations of the conservation laws for classical (affine) Toda field theories, and some generalizations of these models. We show that there is a huge class of generalized models which have an infinite set of conservation laws, with their integrated charges being in involution. Amongst these models we find that only the AmA_m and Am(1)A_m^{(1)} (m2m\ge 2) Toda field theories admit such conservation laws for spin-3. We report on our explicit calculations of spin-4 and spin-5 conservation laws in the (affine) Toda models. Our perhaps most interesting finding is that there exist conservation laws in the AmA_m models (m4)m\ge4) which have a different origin than the exponents of the corresponding affine theory or the energy-momentum tensor of a conformal theory.
