We establish a correspondence between an infinite set of special solutions of the (classical) modified sinh-Gordon equation and a set of stationary states in the finite-volume Hilbert space of the integrable 2D QFT invented by V.A. Fateev.…
In these lectures we report recent work on the exact quantization of dimensionally reduced gravity, i.e. 2d non-linear (G/H)-coset space sigma-models coupled to gravity and a dilaton. Using methods developed in the context of flat space…
The Fateev model is somewhat special among two-dimensional quantum field theories. For different values of the parameters,it can be reduced to a variety of integrable systems. An incomplete list of the reductions includes O(3) and O(4)…
We study a family of classical solutions of modified sinh-Gordon equation, $\partial_z\partial_{{\bar z}} \eta-\re^{2\eta}+p(z)\,p({\bar z})\ \re^{-2\eta}=0$ with $p(z)=z^{2\alpha}-s^{2\alpha}$. We show that certain connection coefficients…
Using twisted commutation relations we show that the quantum sinh-Gordon model on noncommutative space is integrable, and compute the exact two-particle scattering matrix. The model possesses a strong-weak duality, just like its commutative…
We propose a nonlinear $\sigma$-model in a curved space as a general integrable elliptic model. We construct its exact solutions and obtain energy estimates near the critical point. We consider the Pohlmeyer transformation in Euclidean…
Inspired by the forms of delay-Painleve equations, we consider some new differential-discrete systems of KdV, mKdV and Sine-Gordon - type related by simple one way Miura transformations to classical ones. Using Hirota bilinear formalism we…
We discuss an interrelation between quantum integrable models and classical soliton equations with discretized time. It appeared that spectral characteristics of quantum integrable systems may be obtained from entirely classical set up.…
We reformulate the self-dual Einstein equation as a trio of differential form equations for simple two-forms. Using them, we can quickly show the equivalence of the theory and 2D sigma models valued in an infinite-dimensional group, which…
This letter describes a completely-integrable system of Yang-Mills-Higgs equations which generalizes the Hitchin equations on a Riemann surface to arbitrary k-dimensional complex manifolds. The system arises as a dimensional reduction of a…
The Bukhvostov-Lipatov model is an exactly soluble model of two interacting Dirac fermions in 1+1 dimensions. The model describes weakly interacting instantons and anti-instantons in the $O(3)$ non-linear sigma model. In our previous work…
The general idea of this paper is to start from a classical integrable (partial differential) equation which arises as a compatibility condition for a matrix linear differential problem. For definitiveness' sake, a generalised sinh-Gordon…
We define and study certain integrable lattice models with non-compact quantum group symmetry (the modular double of U_q(sl_2)) including an integrable lattice regularization of the sinh-Gordon model and a non-compact version of the XXZ…
The recent progress in revealing classical integrable structures in quantum models solved by Bethe ansatz is reviewed. Fusion relations for eigenvalues of quantum transfer matrices can be written in the form of classical Hirota's bilinear…
We develop a functional integral approach to quantum Liouville field theory completely independent of the hamiltonian approach. To this end on the sphere topology we solve the Riemann-Hilbert problem for three singularities of finite…
The inverse scattering transform allows explicit construction of solutions to many physically significant nonlinear wave equations. Notably, this method can be extended to fractional nonlinear evolution equations characterized by anomalous…
We give the exact construction of Riemannian (or stringy) instantons, which are classical solutions of 2d Yang-Mills theories that interpolate between initial and final string configurations. They satisfy the Hitchin equations with special…
By referring to theorems of Donaldson and Hitchin, we exhibit a rigorous AdS/CFT-type correspondence between classical 2+1 dimensional vacuum general relativity theory on S x R and SO(3) Hitchin theory (regarded as a classical conformal…
We revisit the Hitchin integrable system whose phase space is the bundle cotangent to the moduli space $N$ of holomorphic $SL_2$-bundles over a smooth complex curve of genus two. $N$ may be identified with the 3-dimensional projective space…
