We study the vacuum state of spin chains where each site carry an arbitrary representation. We prove that the string hypothesis, usually used to solve the Bethe ansatz equations, is valid for representations characterized by rectangular…
The periodic sl(2|1) alternating spin chain encodes (some of) the properties of hulls of percolation clusters, and is described in the continuum limit by a logarithmic conformal field theory (LCFT) at central charge c=0. This theory…
The Sine-Gordon theory at $\frac{\beta^{2}}{8\pi} = \frac{2}{(2n+3)},\; n= 1,2,3 \cdots $ has a higher spin generalization of the $N=2$ supersymmetry with the central terms which arises from the affine quantum group $U_{q}( \hat{s \ell}…
We study open spin chains based on rational sl(N) and sl(M|N) R-matrices. We classify the solutions of the reflection equations, for both the soliton-preserving and soliton-non-preserving cases. We then write the Bethe equations for these…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the non-relativistic limit of integrable quantum field theories with fermionic fields, such as the O(N) Gross-Neveu model, the supersymmetric Sinh-Gordon and non-linear sigma models. The…
We study open spin chains for strings stretched between giant graviton states in the N=4 SYM field theory in the collective coordinate approach. We study the boundary conditions and the effective Hamiltonian of the corresponding spin chain…
We study the large $N$ limit of the spectral duality between the classical $\mathfrak{gl}_M$ XXX spin chain and the $\mathfrak{gl}_N$ trigonometric Gaudin model in its rational reduced form. The infinite-dimensional limit of the Gaudin…
A generalization of the $SU(2)$--spin systems on a lattice and their continuum limit to an arbitrary compact group $G$ is discussed. The continuum limits are, in general, non--relativistic $\sigma$--model type field theories targeted on a…
This paper is devoted to integrable gl(n|m) spin chains which allow for formulation of the string hypothesis. Considering the thermodynamic limit of such spin chains, we derive linear functional equations that symmetricaly treat holes and…
In the high energy limit of scattering amplitudes in Quantum Chromodynamics and supersymmetric theories the dominant Feynman diagrams are characterized by a hidden integrability. A well-known example is that of Odderon exchange, which can…
This paper is the first in a series devoted to the study of logarithmic conformal field theories (LCFT) in the bulk. Building on earlier work in the boundary case, our general strategy consists in analyzing the algebraic properties of…
We study spin chains with boundaries that are dual to open strings suspended between systems of giant gravitons and dual giant gravitons. The anomalous dimensions computed in the gauge theory are in complete quantitative agreement with…
We present in an unified and detailed way the Nested Bethe Ansatz for closed spin chains based on Y(gl(n)), Y(gl(m|n)), U_q(gl(n)) or U_q(gl(m|n)) (super)algebras, with arbitrary representations (i.e. `spins') on each site of the chain. In…
In this paper we construct explicit Lagrangian formulation for the massive spin-2 supermultiplets with N = k supersymmetries k = 1,2,3,4. Such multiplets contain 2k particles with spin-3/2, so there must exist N = 2k local supersymmetries…
N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory with gauge group U(M)xU(N)} is dual to N M2-branes and (M-N) fractional M2-branes, equivalently, discrete 3-form holonomy at C4/Zk orbifold singularity. We show that, much like its regular counterpart…
The $\mathcal{N}=2$ Landau--Ginzburg description provides a strongly interacting Lagrangian realization of an $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory. It is conjectured that one such example is given by the two-dimensional…
In four spacetime dimensions there exist two off-shell formulations for the massless multiplet of superspin $(s+\frac 12)$, where $s=2,3, \dots$. These supersymmetric higher spin gauge theories, known as longitudinal and transverse, are…
The gl(N) and U_q(gl(N)) quantum spin chains in the presence of integrable spin impurities are considered. Within the Bethe ansatz formulation, we derive the associated transmission amplitudes, and the corresponding transmission matrices…
We calculate the anomalous dimensions of higher spin singlet currents in the critical $O(N)$ vector model at order $1/N^2$. The results are shown to be in agreement with the four-loop perturbative computation in $\phi^4$ theory in…
We study an XXX open spin chain with variable number of sites, where the variability is introduced only at the boundaries. This model arises naturally in the study of Giant Gravitons in the AdS/CFT correspondence. We show how to quantize…
