In this contribution, we discuss three situations in which complete integrability of a three dimensional classical system and its quantum version can be achieved under some conditions. The former is a system with axial symmetry. In the…
I briefly review the properties of classical affine Toda field theories and indicate how some of this features survive in the quantum theory on-shell. I demonstrate how this knowledge can be extended off-shell, i.e. how to compute…
The Backlund transformation for pseudospherical surfaces, which is equivalent to that of the sine-Gordon equation, can be restricted to give a transformation on space curves that preserves constant torsion. We study its effects on closed…
The topological theory and the Volterra process are key tools for the classification of defects in Condensed Mater Physics. We employ the same methods to classify the 2D defects of a 4D maximally symmetric spacetime. These \textit{cosmic…
We discuss the classical limit for the long-distance (``soft'') modes of a quantum field when the hard modes of the field are in thermal equilibrium. We address the question of the correct semiclassical dynamics when a momentum cut-off is…
We study quantum integrability of affine Toda theories with a line of defect. In particular, we focus on the problem of constructing quantum higher-spin conserved currents in models defined by two A_r^{(1)} Toda theories separated by a…

We elaborate the generalizations of the approach to gauge-invariant deformations of the gauge theories developed in our previous work [1]. In the given paper we construct the exact transformations defying the gauge-invariant deformed theory…
We define bi-infinite versions of four well-studied discrete integrable models, namely the ultra-discrete KdV equation, the discrete KdV equation, the ultra-discrete Toda equation, and the discrete Toda equation. For each equation, we show…
A method to construct both classical and quantum completely integrable systems from (Jordan-Lie) comodule algebras is introduced. Several integrable models based on a so(2,1) comodule algebra, two non-standard Schrodinger comodule algebras,…
We obtain by invariance arguments the relativistic and non-relativistic invariant dynamical equations of a classical model of a spinning electron. We apply the formalism to a particular classical model which satisfies Dirac's equation when…
A new class of completely integrable models is constructed. These models are deformations of the famous integrable and exactly solvable Gaudin models. In contrast with the latter, they are quasi-exactly solvable, i.e. admit the algebraic…
A complete classification of isotropic vector equations of the geometric type that possess higher symmetries is proposed. New examples of integrable multi-component systems of the geometric type and their auto-Backlund transformations are…
In this paper and its sequel, we construct topologically invariant defects in two-dimensional classical lattice models and quantum spin chains. We show how defect lines commute with the transfer matrix/Hamiltonian when they obey the defect…
In this paper we demonstrate that there exists a close relationship between quasi-exactly solvable quantum models and two special classes of classical dynamical systems. One of these systems can be considered a natural generalization of the…
Assuming that Quantum Mechanics is universal and that it can be applied over all scales, then the Universe is allowed to be in a quantum superposition of states, where each of them can correspond to a different space-time geometry. How can…
We show that the auto-Backlund transformations of the sine-Gordon, Korteweg-deVries, nonlinear Schrodinger, and Ernst equations are related to their respective CPT symmetries. This is shown by applying the CPT symmetries of these equations…
