We explore a class of CFT's with higher spin currents and charges. Away from the free or $N=\infty$ limit the non-conservation of currents is governed by operators built out of the currents themselves, which deforms the algebra of charges…
This thesis considers massive field theories in 1+1 dimensions known as affine Toda quantum field theories. We first consider the boundary sine-Gordon model, deriving a complete picture of the boundary bound state structure for general…
We consider the kinetic theory of the quantum and classical Toda lattice models. A kinetic equation of Bethe-Boltzmann type is derived for the distribution function of conserved quasiparticles. Near the classical limit, we show that the…
We study higher spin tensor currents in quantum field theory. Scalar, spinor and vector fields admit unique "improved" currents of arbitrary spin, traceless and conserved. Off-criticality as well as at interacting fixed points conservation…
Local higher-spin conserved currents are constructed in the supersymmetric sigma models with target manifolds symmetric spaces $G/H$. One class of currents is based on generators of the de Rham cohomology ring of $G/H$; a second class of…
We analyze the equilibrium and non-equilibrium frequency-dependent spin current noise and spin conductance through a quantum dot in the local moment regime. Spin current correlations are shown to behave markedly differently from charge…
Using new as well as known results on dimerized quantum spin chains with frustration, we are able to infer some properties on the low-energy spectrum of the O(3) Nonlinear Sigma Model with a topological theta-term. In particular, for…
Two dimensional conformal field theories with the extended $\mathcal{W}_3$ symmetry algebra have an infinite number of mutually commuting conserved charges, which are referred to as the quantum Boussinesq charges. In this work we construct…

Using a contraction procedure, we obtain Toda theories and their structures, from affine Toda theories and their corresponding structures. By structures, we mean the equation of motion, the classical Lax pair, the boundary term for half…
We construct the effective field theory for a single massive higher-spin particle in flat spacetime. Positivity bounds of the S-matrix force the cutoff of the theory to be well below the naive strong-coupling scale, forbid any potential and…
Affine Toda field theories with a purely transmitting integrable defect are considered and the model based on a_2 is analysed in detail. After providing a complete characterization of the problem in a classical framework, a suitable quantum…
We derive exact, factorized, purely elastic scattering matrices for affine Toda theories based on the nonsimply-laced Lie algebras and superalgebras.
We discuss certain integrable quantum field theories in (1+1)-dimensions consisting of coupled sine/sinh-Gordon theories with N=1 supersymmetry, positive kinetic energy, and bosonic potentials which are bounded from below. We show that…
We investigate higher grading integrable generalizations of the affine Toda systems. The extra fields, associated to non zero grade generators, obey field equations of the Dirac type and are regarded as matter fields. The models possess…
The sinh-Gordon model on a half-line with integrable boundary conditions is considered in low order perturbation theory developed in affine Toda field theory. The quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the model are…
We develop techniques to compute higher loop string amplitudes for twisted $N=2$ theories with $\hat c=3$ (i.e. the critical case). An important ingredient is the discovery of an anomaly at every genus in decoupling of BRST trivial states,…
We introduce a generalization of $A_{r}$-type Toda theory based on a non-abelian group G, which we call the $(A_{r},G)$-Toda theory, and its affine extensions in terms of gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten actions with deformation terms. In…
I briefly review the properties of classical affine Toda field theories and indicate how some of this features survive in the quantum theory on-shell. I demonstrate how this knowledge can be extended off-shell, i.e. how to compute…
The existence of higher-spin quantum conserved currents in two dimensions guarantees quantum integrability. We revisit the question of whether classically-conserved local higher-spin currents in two-dimensional sigma models survive…
