We restrict affine Toda field theory to the half-line by imposing certain boundary conditions at $x=0$. The resulting theory possesses the same spectrum of solitons and breathers as affine Toda theory on the whole line. The classical…
Following a prescription of \cite{4} for a solitonic specialization of the general solutions to the (abelian) periodic Toda field theories, we discuss a construction of the soliton solutions for a wide class of two-dimensional completely…
Affine Toda theories with imaginary couplings associate with any simple Lie algebra ${\bf g}$ generalisations of Sine Gordon theory which are likewise integrable and possess soliton solutions. The solitons are \lq\lq created" by…
We consider a real Lagrangian off-critical submodel describing the soliton sector of the so-called conformal affine $sl(3)^{(1)}$ Toda model coupled to matter fields (CATM). The theory is treated as a constrained system in the context of…
New single soliton solutions to the affine Toda field theories are constructed, exhibiting previously unobserved topological charges. This goes some of the way in filling the weights of the fundamental representations, but nevertheless…
Many integrable theories can be formulated universally in terms of Lie algebraic root systems. Well-studied are conformally invariant scalar field theories of Toda type and their massive versions, which can be expressed in terms of simple…
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 implement the inverse scattering method in the case of the $A_n$ affine Toda field theories, by studying the space-time evolution of simple poles in the underlying loop group. We find the known single soliton solutions, as well as…
Classical integrability is investigated for affine Toda field theories in the presence of a constant background tensor field. This leads to a further set of discrete possibilities for integrable boundary conditions depending upon the…
In this note we show that the single soliton solutions known previously in the $1+1$ dimensional affine Toda field theories from a variety of different methods \cite{H1,MM,OTUa,OTUb}, are in fact not the most general single soliton…
A new class of integrable two-dimensional dilaton gravity theories, in which scalar matter fields satisfy the Toda equations, is proposed. The simplest case of the Toda system is considered in some detail, and on this example we outline how…
It is known that a family of transfer matrix functional equations, the T-system, can be compactly written in terms of the Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra. We formally replace this Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra with that of an…
Explicit constructions of $a_n^{(1)}$ affine Toda field theory breather solutions are presented. Breathers arise either from two solitons of the same species or from solitons which are anti-species of each other. In the first case,…
The question of the integrability of real-coupling affine toda field theory on a half-line is addressed. It is found, by examining low-spin conserved charges, that the boundary conditions preserving integrability are strongly constrained.…
Massive integrable field theories in $1+1$ dimensions are defined at the Lagrangian level, whose classical equations of motion are related to the ``non-abelian'' Toda field equations. They can be thought of as generalizations of the…
We consider an integrable conformally invariant two dimensional model associated to the affine Kac-Moody algebra SL(3). It possesses four scalar fields and six Dirac spinors. The theory does not possesses a local Lagrangian since the spinor…
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 study the conserved charges of affine Toda field theories by making use of the conformally invariant extension of these theories. We compute the values of all charges for the single soliton solutions, and show that these are related to…
A simple, basic, argument is given, based solely on energy-momentum considerations to recover conditions under which a_r affine or conformal Toda field theories can support defects of integrable type. Associated triangle relations are…
Transmission matrices for two types of integrable defect are calculated explicitly, first by solving directly the nonlinear transmission Yang-Baxter equations, and second by solving a linear intertwining relation between a finite…
