The S-matrix bootstrap is extended to a 1+1d theory with $O(N)$ symmetry and a boundary in what we call the R-matrix bootstrap since the quantity of interest is the reflection matrix (R-matrix). Given a bulk S-matrix, the space of allowed…
The trajectories of S-matrix poles are calculated in the finite-range phenomenological potential introduced recently by P. Salamon and T. Vertse (SV). The trajectories of the resonance poles in this SV potential are compared to the…
We consider the simplest bosonic-type S-matrix which is usually regarded as unphysical due to the complex values of the finite volume ground state energy. While a standard quantum field theory interpretation of such a scattering theory is…
