This paper investigates the relations between the Toda conformal field theories, quantum group theory and the quantisation of moduli spaces of flat connections. We use the free field representation of the $\mathcal{W}$-algebras to define…
In analogy with the Liouville case we study the $sl_3$ Toda theory on the lattice and define the relevant quadratic algebra and out of it we recover the discrete $W_3$ algebra. We define an integrable system with respect to the latter and…
We provide explicit realizations for the operators which when exchanged give rise to the scattering matrix. For affine Toda field theory we present two alternative constructions, one related to a free bosonic theory and the other formally…
A quantum $n$-particle model consisting of an open $q$-difference Toda chain with two-sided boundary interactions is placed on a finite integer lattice. The spectrum and eigenbasis are computed by establishing the equivalence with a…
Quantum Toda lattice may solved by means of the Representation Theory of semisimple Lie groups, or alternatively by using the technique of the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. A comparison of the two approaches, which is the purpose of…
The problem of quantizing a class of two-dimensional integrable quantum field theories is considered. The classical equations of the theory are the complex $sl(n)$ affine Toda equations which admit soliton solutions with real masses. The…
Time boundaries (TBs), temporal analogues of spatial interfaces, offer a powerful handle to engineer quantum systems. However, unlike the well-developed stationary scattering theory at spatial interfaces, a unified framework for quantum…
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…
The spectra of $A_r$ affine Toda field theories with imaginary coupling constant, are investigated. Soliton solutions are found, which, despite the non-unitary form of the Lagrangian, have real classical masses and are stable to small…
Locality is analyzed for Toda field theories by noting novel chiral description in the conventional nonchiral formalism. It is shown that the canonicity of the interacting to free field mapping described by the classical solution is…
We consider the two-dimensional $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ quantum Toda field theory with an imaginary background charge. This conformal field theory has a higher spin symmetry ($W_n$ algebra), a central charge $c \leq n-1$ and a continuous…
The paper deals with the analytic theory of the quantum q-deformed Toda chain; the technique used combines the methods of representation theory and the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. The key phenomenon which is under scrutiny is the…
We describe a relation between the periodic one-dimensional Toda lattice and the quantum cohomology of the periodic flag manifold (an infinite-dimensional Kaehler manifold). This generalizes a result of Givental and Kim relating the open…
In this paper we generalize the quantization procedure of Toda-mKdV hierarchies to the case of arbitrary affine (super)algebras. The quantum analogue of the monodromy matrix, related to the universal R-matrix with the lower Borel subalgebra…
We study the reflection amplitudes of affine Toda field theories with boundary, following the ideas developed by Fring and Koberle and focusing our attention on the $E_{n}$ series elements, because of their interesting structure of higher…
The Hofstadter model allows to describe and understand several phenomena in condensed matter such as the quantum Hall effect, Anderson localization, charge pumping, and flat-bands in quasiperiodic structures, and is a rare example of…
Using the representation theory of $\frak{gl}(N,\RR)$, we express the wave function of the $GL(N,\RR)$ Toda chain, which two of us recently obtained by the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method, in terms of multiple integrals. The main tool is…
We show that the k-double Schur functions defined by the authors, and the quantum double Schubert polynomials studied by Kirillov and Maeno and by Ciocan-Fontanine and Fulton, can be obtained from each other by an explicit rational…
The most prominent class of integrable quantum field theories in 1+1 dimensions is affine Toda theory. Distinguished by a rich underlying Lie algebraic structure these models have in recent years attracted much attention not only as test…
We develop a diagrammatic calculus for representations of unrolled quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at a fourth root of unity. This allows us to prove Seifert-Torres type formulas for certain splice links using quantum algebraic methods, rather…
