We derive the Faddeev-Reshetikhin (FR) model from a four-dimensional Chern- Simons theory with two order surface defects by following the work by Costello and Yamazaki [arXiv:1908.02289]. Then we present a trigonometric deformation of the…
A new class of deformation of the matrix model of M-theory is considered. The deformation is analogous to the so-called $\b$-deformation of $D=3+1$, $\mN=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory, which preserves the conformal symmetry. It is shown that…
The recently developed 'Resummed' ChPT is illustrated on the case of pseudoscalar meson decay constants. We try to get an estimate of the eta decay constant, which is not well known from experiments, while using several ways including the…
We investigate how the marginal deformations of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (analysed in particular by Leigh and Strassler) arise within B-model topological string theory on supertwistor space CP(3|4). This is achieved by turning…
A novel classically integrable model is proposed. It is a deformation of the two-dimensional principal chiral model, embedded into a heterotic $\sigma$-model, by a particular heterotic gauge field. This is inspired by the bosonic part of…
In the approach recently proposed by K. Costello and M. Yamazaki, which is based on a four-dimensional variant of Chern-Simons theory, we derive a simple and unifying two-dimensional form for the action of many integrable $\sigma$-models…
We study the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of the chiral bosons and show the equivalence between the chiral bosons of opposite chiralities and the scalar fields at the Hamiltonian level under the deformation. We also derive the deformed Lagrangian…
We describe deformations of the classical principle chiral model and 1+1 Gaudin model related to ${\rm GL}_N$ Lie group. The deformations are generated by $R$-matrices satisfying the associative Yang-Baxter equation. Using the coefficients…
In the past few years, the unifying frameworks of 4-dimensional Chern-Simons theory and affine Gaudin models have allowed for the systematic construction of a large family of integrable $\sigma$-models. These models depend on the data of a…
The refined Chern-Simons theory is a one-parameter deformation of the ordinary Chern-Simons theory on Seifert manifolds. It is defined via an index of the theory on N M5 branes, where the corresponding one-parameter deformation is a natural…
In this pedagogical review we introduce systematic approaches to deforming integrable 2-dimensional sigma models. We use the integrable principal chiral model and the conformal Wess-Zumino-Witten model as our starting points and explore…
We perform a canonical and BRST analysis of a seven-dimensional Chern-Simons theory on a manifold with boundary. The main result is that the 7D theory induces for consistency a chiral two-form on the 6D boundary. We also comment on similar…
We consider two integrable deformations of 2d sigma models on supercosets associated with AdS_n x S^n. The first, the "eta-deformation" (based on the Yang-Baxter sigma model), is a one-parameter generalization of the standard superstring…
It is known that Yang-Baxter sigma models provide a systematic way to study integrable deformations of both principal chiral models and symmetric coset sigma models. In the original proposal and its subsequent development, the deformations…
We study \Omega-deformation of B-twisted gauge theories in two dimensions. As an application, we construct an \Omega-deformed, topologically twisted five-dimensional maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on the product of a Riemann…
We study the effects of a topological Theta-term on 2+1 dimensional principal chiral models (PCM), which are nonlinear sigma models defined on Lie group manifolds. We find that when Theta = pi, the nature of the disordered phase of the…
We study Yang-Baxter deformations of 4D Minkowski spacetime. The Yang-Baxter sigma model description was originally developed for principal chiral models based on a modified classical Yang-Baxter equation. It has been extended to coset…
We investigate the relation between the realization of center symmetry and the dependence on the topological parameter $\theta$ in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theories, exploiting trace deformations as a tool to regulate center symmetry breaking in…
The Chern--Simons term is used in the geometric theory of defects. The equilibrium equations with $\delta$-function source are explicitly solved with respect to the $SO(3)$ connection. This solution describes one straight linear…
This paper studies novel four-dimensional integrable field theories that are deformations of self-dual Yang-Mills. They are engineered by considering holomorphic Chern-Simons and BF type theories on covers of twistor space obtained by…
