After a brief review of integrability, first in the absence and then in the presence of a boundary, I outline the construction of actions for the N=1 and N=2 boundary sine-Gordon models. The key point is to introduce Fermionic boundary…
We study a family of interacting bosonic representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra. These models can be tensored with a conjugate theory to give the free theory. We explain how to use free fields to study interacting fields and…
Construction of integrable field theories in space with a boundary is extended to fermionic models. We obtain general forms of boundary interactions consistent with integrability of the massive Thirring model and study the duality…
We formulate N-fold supersymmetry in quantum mechanical matrix models. As an example, we construct general two-by-two Hermitian matrix 2-fold supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems. We find that there are two inequivalent such systems,…
We find exactly solvable N=2-supersymmetric flows whose infrared fixed points are the N=2 minimal models. The exact S-matrices and the Casimir energy (a c-function) are determined along the entire renormalization group trajectory. The…
We explore how matrix bootstrap techniques can be used to constrain matrix and tensor models at finite $N$, where $N$ is the dimension of the matrix/tensor, taking a Gaussian model with a quartic interaction as example. For matrix models,…
We consider the supersymmetric approach to gaussian disordered systems like the random bond Ising model and Dirac model with random mass and random potential. These models appeared in particular in the study of the integer quantum Hall…
We study the scattering theory for the Gross-Neveu model on the half-line. We find the reflection matrices for the elementary fermions, and by fusion we compute the ones for the two-particle bound-states, showing that they satisfy…
We consider N=4 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity on asymptotically-AdS_5 backgrounds. By a near-boundary analysis we determine the boundary-dominant components of the bulk fields from their partially gauge-fixed field equations. Subdominant…
In this paper we study the boundary effects for off-critical integrable field theories which have close analogs with integrable lattice models. Our models are the $SU(2)_{k}\otimes SU(2)_{l}/SU(2)_{k+l}$ coset conformal field theories…
We discuss N=2 supersymmetric quantum mechanics on the lattice using the fermion loop formulation. In this approach the system naturally decomposes into a bosonic and fermionic sector. This allows us to deal with the sign problem arising in…
We review recent developments in the context of two-dimensional conformally invariant sigma-models. These quantum field theories play a prominent role in the covariant superstring quantization in flux backgrounds and in the analysis of…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Gromov hyperbolic group, endowed with an arbitrary left-invariant hyperbolic metric, quasi-isometric to a word metric. The action of $\Gamma$ on its boundary $\partial\Gamma$ endowed with the Patterson-Sullivan measure…
Supersymmetry is an algebraic property of a quantum Hamiltonian that, by giving every boson a fermionic superpartner and vice versa, may underpin physics beyond the Standard Model. Fractional bosonic and fermionic quasiparticles are…
I show that physical quantities in several two-dimensional condensed-matter models are related to the Seiberg-Witten calculation of exact quantities in supersymmetric gauge theory. In particular, the magnetization in the Kondo problem and…
We study the Heisenberg spin-1/2 model on a semi-infinite chain - or, equivalently, a trotterized unitary SU(2) symmetric six-vertex quantum circuit - with a boundary defect where the interaction between the two spins nearest the edge…
We study the holomorphic twist of 3d N = 2 supersymmetric field theories, discuss the perturbative bulk local operators in general, and explicitly construct non perturbative bulk local operators for abelian gauge theories. Our construction…
We study different aspects of integrable boundary quantum field theories, focusing mostly on the ``boundary sine-Gordon model'' and its applications to condensed matter physics. The first part of the review deals with formal problems. We…
Formulation and supersymmetry localization of superconformal indices for $\mathcal{N}=2B$ superconformal quantum mechanics are reviewed by providing a generalization to fixed point submanifolds of resolved target space geometries, and…
We review our recent results on the on-shell description of sine-Gordon model with integrable boundary conditions. We determined the spectrum of boundary states together with their reflection factors by closing the boundary bootstrap and…
