An analytic expression is proposed for the three-point function of the exponential fields in the Liouville field theory on a sphere. In the classical limit it coincides with what the classical Liouville theory predicts. Using this function…

We study $su(2)_k$ WZW model perturbed by a multiplet of primary fields. The theory has a rich variety of particles. Presence of nontrivial decay processes is a peculiarity of the model. We prove integrability by explicit construction of…

We present a non-relativistic fermionic field theory in 2-dimensions coupled to external gauge fields. The singlet sector of the $c=1$ matrix model corresponds to a specific external gauge field. The gauge theory is one-dimensional (time)…

Standard Model may be defined with the additional discrete symmetry, i.e. with the gauge group $SU(3)\times SU(2) \times U(1)/{\cal Z}$ (${\cal Z} = Z_6$, $Z_3$ or $Z_2$) instead of the usual $SU(3)\times SU(2) \times U(1)$. It has the same…

We investigate the correspondence between two dimensional topological gauge theories and quantum integrable systems discovered by Moore, Nekrasov, Shatashvili. This correspondence means that the hidden quantum integrable structure exists in…

Warped extra dimensions provide a new playground to study electroweak brea-king and the nature of the higgs field. In this paper we reanalyze the electroweak observables in theories with one extra dimension and a completely general warp…

We introduce the complex Liouville string, a solvable string theory defined by coupling two Liouville theories with complex conjugate central charges $c \in 13+i \mathbb{R}$ on the worldsheet. We compute its amplitudes from first principles…

Flat-space conformal invariance and curved-space Weyl invariance are simply related in dimensions greater than two. In two dimensions the Liouville theory presents an exceptional situation, which we here examine.

Duality properties of the $SU(2)$ Principal Chiral Model are investigated starting from a one-parameter family of its equivalent Hamiltonian descriptions generated by a non-Abelian deformation of the cotangent space $T^*SU(2) \simeq SU(2)…

This thesis is a study of two dimensional noncritical string theory. The main tool which is used, is the matrix model. Introductions to both the Liouville model and its matrix model formulation are included. In particular the special states…

We show that O(2,2) transformation of SU(2) WZNW model gives rise to marginal deformation of this model by the operator $\int d^2 z J(z)\bar J(\bar z)$ where $J$, $\bar J$ are U(1) currents in the Cartan subalgebra. Generalization of this…

We suggest a two-matrix model depending on three (infinite) sets of parameters which interpolates between all the models proposed in arXiv:2206.13038, and defined there through $W$-representations. We also discuss further generalizations of…

To analyse pure ${\cal N}=2$ $SU(2)$ gauge theory in the Nekrasov-Shatashvili (NS) limit (or deformed Seiberg-Witten (SW)), we use the Ordinary Differential Equation/Integrable Model (ODE/IM) correspondence, and in particular its (broken)…

The Hamiltonians of $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ gauge theories in 3+1 dimensions can be expressed in terms of gauge invariant spatial geometric variables, i.e., metrics, connections and curvature tensors which are simple local functions of the…

Working directly on affine Lie groups, we construct several new formulations of the WZW model. In one formulation WZW is expressed as a one-dimensional mechanical system whose variables are coordinates on the affine Lie group. When written…

Some remarks are made about free anomaly groups in gauged WZW models. Considering a quite general action, anomaly cancellation is analyzed. The possibility of gauging left and right sectors independently in some cases is remarked. In…

Exact two point correlation functions of sine-Liouville theory are presented for primary fields with U(1) charge neutral, which may either preserve or break winding number. Our result is checked with perturbative calculation and is also…

We consider the volume of the gauge orbit space for gauge fields on four-dimensional complex projective space. The analysis uses a parametrization of gauge fields where gauge transformations act homogeneously on the fields, facilitating a…
