We perform a tensor network simulation of the (1+1)-dimensional $O(3)$ nonlinear $\sigma$-model with $\theta=\pi$ term. Within the Hamiltonian formulation, this field theory emerges as the finite-temperature partition function of a modified…

We study the finite volume/temperature correlation functions of the (1+1)-dimensional ${\rm SU}(N)$ principal chiral sigma model in the planar limit. The exact S-matrix of the sigma model is known to simplify drastically at large $N$, and…

We re-examine three issues, the Hopf term, fractional spin and the soliton operators, in the 2+1 dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model based on the adjoint orbit parameterization (AOP) introduced earlier. It is shown that the Hopf Term is…
