We construct a generalization of the cyclic $\lambda$-deformed models of \cite{Georgiou:2017oly} by relaxing the requirement that all the WZW models should have the same level $k$. Our theories are integrable and flow from a single UV point…
We construct a new infinite family of integrable deformations of the principal chiral model (PCM) parameterized by an interaction function of several variables, which extends the formalism of arXiv:2405.05899, and includes deformations of…
A general study of non-abelian duality is presented. We first identify a possible obstruction to the conformal invariance of the dual theory for non-semisimple groups. We construct the exact non-abelian dual for any Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW)…
We present an intuitive diagrammatic representation of a new class of integrable $\s$-models. It is shown that to any given diagram corresponds an integrable theory that couples $N$ WZW models with a certain number of each of the following…
Recently, Ali et al defined the class $\mathcal{W}_{\beta}(\alpha, \gamma)$ consisting of functions $f$ which satisfy $$\Re e^{i\phi}\left((1-\alpha+2\gamma)\frac{f(z)}{z}+(\alpha-2\gamma)f'(z)+\gamma zf''(z)-\beta\right)>0,$$ for all $z\in…
We propose that the Yang-Baxter deformation of the symmetric space sigma-model parameterized by an r-matrix solving the homogeneous (classical) Yang-Baxter equation is equivalent to the non-abelian dual of the undeformed model with respect…
We study a generalization of the Alexandrov-Kontsevich-Schwarz-Zaboronsky (AKSZ) formulation of the A- and B-models which involves a doubling of coordinates, and can be understood as a complexification of the Poisson $\sigma$-model…
We consider the $\gamma$-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM in the double scaling limit of large imaginary twists and small coupling, which discards the gauge fields and retains only certain Yukawa and scalar interactions with three arbitrary…
We consider two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ sigma models with the CP(1) target space. A minimal model of this type has one left-handed fermion. Nonminimal extensions contain, in addition, $N_f$ right-handed fermions. Our task is to…
It is shown how a integrable mechanical system provides all the localized static solutions of a deformation of the linear O(N)-sigma model in two space-time dimensions. The proof is based on the Hamilton-Jacobi separability of the…
Using the general method presented by Mohammedi \cite{NM} for the integrability of a sigma model on a manifold, we investigate the conditions for having an integrable deformation of the general sigma model on a manifold with a complex…
We study duality transformations for two-dimensional sigma models with abelian chiral isometries and prove that generic such transformations are equivalent to integrated marginal perturbations by bilinears in the chiral currents, thus…
We describe a systematic way of the generalization, to models with non-linear duality, of the space-time covariant and duality-invariant formulation of duality-symmetric theories in which the covariance of the action is ensured by the…
Dimensional reduction in two dimensions of gravity in higher dimension, or more generally of d=3 gravity coupled to a sigma-model on a symmetric space, is known to possess an infinite number of symmetries. We show that such a bidimensional…
Based on character decomposition, a dual transformation is introduced leading to two formulations of the theory which should allow for a removal/softening of the sign problem in the original version. Very preliminar numerical results are…
We compute the anomalous dimension of the single current operator in the case of single and doubly deformed asymmetric $\lambda$-models with a general deformation matrix. Our method uses the underlying geometry of the coupling space, as…
We review the most general, local, superconformal boundary conditions for the two-dimensional N=1 and N=2 non-linear sigma models, and analyse them for the N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric WZW models. We find that the gluing map between the left…
We study Lagrangian systems on a closed manifold. We link the differentiability of Mather's beta-function with the topological complexity of the complement of the Aubry set. As a consequence, when the dimension of the manifold is less than…
We consider the deformations of ``monomial solutions'' to Generalized Kontsevich Model \cite{KMMMZ91a,KMMMZ91b} and establish the relation between the flows generated by these deformations with those of $N=2$ Landau-Ginzburg topological…
Hilbert bimodules are morphisms between C*-algebraic models of quantum systems, while symplectic dual pairs are morphisms between Poisson geometric models of classical systems. Both of these morphisms preserve representation-theoretic…
