We derive a finite set of nonlinear integral equations for describing the finite size dependence of the ground state energy of the O(4) nonlinear sigma model. By modifying the kernel functions of these equations we propose nonlinear…

We investigate the relation between on-shell and zero-momentum non-perturbative quantities entering the parametrization of the two-point Green's function of two-dimensional non-linear O(N) sigma models. We present accurate estimates of…

We construct the {\cal N}=4 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model in three dimensions which can be expanded in 1/N. We evaluate the effective action at leading order in the 1/N expansion and show the finiteness of the model to this order.

We introduce a Monte--Carlo simulation approach to thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA). We exemplify the method on one particle integrable models, which include a free boson and a free fermions systems along with the scaling Lee--Yang model…

We study the $O(N)$ nonlinear $\sigma$ model on a three-dimensional compact space $S^1 \times S^2$ (of radii $L$ and $R$ respectively) by means of large $N$ expansion, focusing on the finite size effects and conformal symmetries of this…

We study a series of $N\!=\!1$ supersymmetric integrable particle theories in $d=1+1$ dimensions. These theories are represented as integrable perturbations of specific $N\!=\!1$ superconformal field theories. Starting from the conjectured…

We examine the phase structures of the supersymmetric O(N) sigma model in two and three dimensions by using the tadpole method. Using this simple method, the calculation is largely simplified and the characteristics of this theory become…

We continue our study of symmetries of a class of little string theories of A-type, which are engineered by $N$ parallel M5-branes probing a flat transverse space. Extending the analysis of the companion paper, we discuss the part of the…

We propose a system of nonlinear integral equations (NLIE) which describes the thermodynamics of the U_{q}(\hat{sl(r+1)}) Perk-Schultz model. These NLIE correspond to a trigonometric analogue of our previous result (cond-mat/0212280), and…

In this paper we develop the Direct Method in the Calculus of Variations for free-discontinuity energies whose bulk and surface densities exhibit superlinear growth, respectively for large gradients and small jump amplitudes. A distinctive…

We present and study new non-topological soliton solutions in the $U(1)$ gauged non-linear $O(3)$ sigma model with a symmetry breaking potential in 3+1 dimensional flat space-time. The configurations are endowed with an electric and…

We solve the loop equations to all orders in $1/N^2$, for the Chain of Matrices matrix model (with possibly an external field coupled to the last matrix of the chain). We show that the topological expansion of the free energy, is, like for…

We study by non perturbative techniques a vector, axial--vector theory characterized by a parameter which interpolates between pure vector and chiral Schwinger models. Main results are two windows in the space of parameters which exhibit…

The 1/$N$ expansion solutions for the interacting boson model are extended to higher orders using computer algebra. The analytic results are compared with those obtained from an exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian and are shown to be…

We study two-dimensional supersymmetric non-linear sigma-models with boundaries. We derive the most general family of boundary conditions in the non-supersymmetric case. Next we show that no further conditions arise when passing to the N=1…

We derive a system of TBA equations governing the exact WKB periods in one-dimensional Quantum Mechanics with arbitrary polynomial potentials. These equations provide a generalization of the ODE/IM correspondence, and they can be regarded…

We conjecture that the $O(N)$-symmetric non-linear sigma model in the semi-infinite $(1+1)$-dimensional space is ``integrable'' with respect to the ``free'' and the ``fixed'' boundary conditions. We then derive, for both cases, the boundary…

We show that there is a natural universal limit of the topological string free energies at the large radius point. The new free energies keep a nonholomorphic dependence on the complex structure moduli space and their functional form is the…

We extensively study the growing behavior of the energy and the pressure components depending on the space-time rapidity in the framework of the Glasma, which describes the early-time dynamics in the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions.…

In this paper, we calculate the topological free energy for a number of ${\mathcal N} \geq 2$ Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons-matter theories at large $N$ and fixed Chern-Simons levels. The topological free energy is defined as the logarithm of the…
