We develop a dynamical formulation of one-dimensional scattering theory where the reflection and transmission amplitudes for a general, possibly complex and energy-dependent, scattering potential are given as solutions of a set of dynamical…
Scattering amplitudes in quantum field theories are of widespread interest, due to a large number of theoretical and phenomenological applications. Much is known about the possible behaviour of amplitudes, that is independent of the details…

Sigma models arise frequently in particle physics and condensed-matter physics as low-energy effective theories. In this paper I compute the exact free energy at any temperature in two hierarchies of integrable sigma models in two…
We use the discrete approach to solve the Schr\"odinger as well as the Bloch equations for a free particle and the quantum gas of free particles embedded in an infinite quantum well with the finite width. We obtain the expressions of energy…
In this paper, we consider the scattering problem for a class of $N$-coupled systems of the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations in three space dimensions. We prove the scattering of solutions that have a mass-energy quantity less than…
It is known that solutions of Richardson equations can be represented as stationary points of the "energy" of classical free charges on the plane. We suggest to consider "probabilities" of the system of charges to occupy certain states in…

A new method is proposed for the calculation of the free energy of an N-component Phi^4 theory at finite temperature. The method combines a perturbative treatment of the hard modes with a non-perturbative treatment in the effectively…
We study the dependence of the ground state energy on an applied Aharonov-Bohm flux $\Phi$ for the Luttinger model with large momentum scattering. Employing the method of finite size bosonization, we show that for systems with a spin gap…
The scattering and bound states of the many-body systems, related to the short-range Dyson model, are studied. First, we show that the scattering states can be realized as coherent states and the scattering Hamiltonian can be connected to a…
Using the three-particle quantization condition recently obtained in the particle-dimer framework, the finite-volume energy shift of the two lowest three-particle scattering states is derived up to and including order $L^{-6}$. Furthermore,…
We study the ground state energy of integrable $1+1$ quantum field theories with boundaries (the genuine Casimir effect). In the scalar case, this is done by introducing a new, ``R-channel TBA'', where the boundary is represented by a…

This work addresses the question of whether it is possible to define simple pair-wise interaction terms to approximate free energies of proteins or polymers. Rather than ask how reliable a potential of mean force is, one can ask how…
We give upper and lower bounds for the ground-state energy of the infinite-U Hubbard model. In two dimensions, using these bounds we are able to rule out the possibility of phase separation between the undoped-insulating state and an…
We show that for a one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a potential whose (j+1)'th moment is integrable the j'th derivative of the scattering matrix is in the Wiener algebra of functions with integrable Fourier transforms. We use…
We compute the free energy of the planar monomer-dimer model. Unlike the classical planar dimer model, an exact solution is not known in this case. Even the computation of the low-density power series expansion requires heavy and nontrivial…
