A dynamical system is canonically associated to every Drinfeld double of any affine Kac-Moody group. The choice of the affine Lu-Weinstein-Soibelman double gives a smooth one-parameter deformation of the standard WZW model. In particular,…
The classical and quantum algebras of a class of conformal NA-Toda models are studied. It is shown that the $SL(2,R)_q$ Poisson brackets algebra generated by certain chiral and antichiral charges of the nonlocal currents and the global U(1)…
We study a broad class of two dimensional gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) with off-shell N=(2,2) supersymmetry that flow to nonlinear sigma models (NLSMs) on noncompact geometries with torsion. These models arise from coupling chiral,…
We perturbed N=(2,2) supersymmetric WZW and sigma models on Lie groups by adding a term to their actions. Then by using non-coordinate basis we obtain conditions, from the algebraic point of view, under which the N=(2,2) supersymmetry is…
One discusses here the connection between \sigma-model gauge anomalies and the existence of a connection with torsion that does not flatten the Ricci tensor of the target manifold, by considering a number of non-symmetric coset spaces. The…
We study the geometries obtained by performing super non-Abelian T-duality of the Principal Chiral Model on OSp$(1|2)$. While the initial model represents an appropriate 3D supergravity background, interpretable as the superspace version of…
It is well-known that principal chiral models and symmetric space models in two-dimensional Minkowski space have an infinite-dimensional algebra of hidden symmetries. Because of the relevance of symmetric space models to duality symmetries…
We derive two new classes of integrable theories interpolating between exact CFT WZW or gauged WZW models and non-Abelian T-duals of principal chiral models or geometric coset models. They are naturally constructed by gauging symmetries of…
The Hamiltonian formalism offers a natural framework for discussing the notion of Poisson Lie T-duality. This is because the duality is inherent in the Poisson structures alone and exists regardless of the choice of Hamiltonian. Thus one…
In this short proceedings we discuss some of the results obtained in [1]. Integrable deformations enlarge the landscape and understanding of integrable models and its algebraic structures like quantum groups. In this short proceedings, we…
Considering a class of (2,0)-super-Yang-Mills multiplets that accommodate a pair of independent gauge potentials in connection with a single symmetry group, we present here their coupling to ordinary matter and to non-linear $\sigma$-models…
In this work we study a large class of exact Lie bialgebras arising from noncommutative deformations of Poisson-Lie groups endowed with a left invariant Riemannian metric. We call these structures \emph{exact metaflat Lie bialgebras}. We…
Local symmetries is one of the most successful themes in modern theoretical physics. Although they are usually associated to Lie algebras, a gradual increase of interest in more general situations where local symmetries are associated to…
Recently, Maldacena, Moore and Seiberg introduced non-maximally symmetric boundary states on group manifold using T-duality. In the work presented here we suggest simple description of these branes in terms of group elements. We show that…
A description of dual non-Abelian duality is given, based on the notion of the Drinfeld double. The presentation basically follows the original paper \cite{KS2}, written in collaboration with P. \v Severa, but here the emphasis is put on…
Non linear sigma models on Riemannian symmetric spaces constitute the most general class of classical non-linear sigma models which are known to be integrable. Using the current algebra structure of these models their canonical structure is…
Lie algebra valued equations translating the integrability of a general two-dimensional Wess-Zumino-Witten model are given. We found simple solutions to these equations and identified three types of new integrable non-linear sigma models.…
I take steps toward the construction of a CFT dual to Vasiliev's higher spin gravity in three dimensional de Sitter space. There are two main claims. The first is that higher spin de Sitter symmetries are related to extended Virasoro…
The precise relationship between the arbitrary monodromy dependent 2-form appearing in the chiral WZNW symplectic form and the `exchange r-matrix' that governs the corresponding Poisson brackets is established. Generalizing earlier results…
An abundance of the Poisson-Lie symmetries of the WZNW models is uncovered. They give rise, via the Poisson-Lie $T$-duality, to a rich structure of the dual pairs of $D$-branes configurations in group manifolds. The $D$-branes are…
