We introduce a consistent gauge extension of the SL(2,R) WZNW system, defined by a difference of two simple WZNW actions. By integrating out some dynamical variables in the functional integral, we show that the resulting effective theory…

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 define the $osp(1,2)$ Gaudin algebra and consider integrable models described by it. The models include the $osp(1,2)$ Gaudin magnet and the Dicke model related to it. Detailed discussion of the simplest cases of these models is…
We investigate a relationship between a particular class of two-dimensional integrable non-linear $\sigma$-models and variations of Hodge structures. Concretely, our aim is to study the classical dynamics of the $\lambda$-deformed $G/G$…
We identify the spectral curve of pure gauge SU(2) Seiberg-Witten theory with the Weierstrass curve $\mathbbm{C}/L \ni z \mapsto (1,\wp(z),\wp(z)')$ and thereby obtain explicitely a modular form from which the moduli space parameter $u$ and…
In this paper we continue the program, initiated in Ref. hep-th/0112246, to investigate an integrable noncommutative version of the sine-Gordon model. We discuss the origin of the extra constraint which the field function has to satisfy in…
A system of inhomogeneous second-order difference equations with linear parts given by noncommutative matrix coefficients are considered. Closed form of its solution is derived by means of newly defined delayed matrix sine/cosine using the…

A Coqblin-Schrieffer impurity of spin $S$ coupled to the boundary of an open SU(N)-invariant $t-J$ chain with $N = 2S+2$ is studied. The model is integrable as a function of one coupling parameter $v$ for arbitrary spin and band filling.…

The complete classification of WZNW modular invariant partition functions is known for very few affine algebras and levels, the most significant being all levels of $A_1$ and $A_2$ and level 1 of all simple algebras. Here, we address the…
We give a geometric description of the fusion rules of the affine Lie algebra su(2)_k at a positive integer level k in terms of the k-th power of the basic gerbe over the Lie group SU(2). The gerbe can be trivialised over conjugacy classes…

We study imaginary representations of the Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras of affine Lie type. Irreducible modules for such algebras arise as simple heads of standard modules. In order to define standard modules one needs to have a cuspidal…
