Topological excitations in N=1 Supersymmetric QFT

The present paper deals with N=1 2D supersymmetric integrable quantum field theory. The S-matrix proposed to describe the interactions between supersymmetric particles is applied to theories involving topological excitations of zero central charge. Bound states can fit consistently within this type of theories, since the bootstrap can be shown to close. The topological character of the excitations and the similarity with the scattering of particles is fully understood when a kink sector is introduced in the theory.

The N=1 supersymmetric bootstrap and Lie algebas

The bootstrap programme for finding exact S-matrices of integrable quantum field theories with N=1 supersymmetry is investigated. New solutions are found which have the same fusing data as bosonic theories related to the classical affine Lie algebras. When the states correspond to a spinor spot of the Dynkin diagram they are kinks which carry a non-zero topological charge. Using these results, the S-matrices of the supersymmetric O($2n$) sigma model and sine-Gordon model can be shown to close under the bootstrap.
