Calogero-Moser Models IV: Limits to Toda theory

Calogero-Moser models and Toda models are well-known integrable multi-particle dynamical systems based on root systems associated with Lie algebras. The relation between these two types of integrable models is investigated at the levels of the Hamiltonians and the Lax pairs. The Lax pairs of Calogero-Moser models are specified by the representations of the reflection groups, which are not the same as those of the corresponding Lie algebras. The latter specify the Lax pairs of Toda models. The Hamiltonians of the elliptic Calogero-Moser models tend to those of Toda models as one of the periods of the elliptic function goes to infinity, provided the dynamical variables are properly shifted and the coupling constants are scaled. On the other hand most of Calogero-Moser Lax pairs, for example, the root type Lax pairs, do not a have consistent Toda model limit. The minimal type Lax pairs, which corresponds to the minimal representations of the Lie algebras, tend to the Lax pairs of the corresponding Toda models.

Generalised Calogero-Moser models and universal Lax pair operators

Calogero-Moser models can be generalised for all of the finite reflection groups. These include models based on non-crystallographic root systems, that is the root systems of the finite reflection groups, H_3, H_4, and the dihedral group I_2(m), besides the well-known ones based on crystallographic root systems, namely those associated with Lie algebras. Universal Lax pair operators for all of the generalised Calogero-Moser models and for any choices of the potentials are constructed as linear combinations of the reflection operators. The consistency conditions are reduced to functional equations for the coefficient functions of the reflection operators in the Lax pair. There are only four types of such functional equations corresponding to the two-dimensional sub-root systems, A_2, B_2, G_2, and I_2(m). The root type and the minimal type Lax pairs, derived in our previous papers, are given as the simplest representations. The spectral parameter dependence plays an important role in the Lax pair operators, which bear a strong resemblance to the Dunkl operators, a powerful tool for solving quantum Calogero-Moser models.

Calogero-Moser Models III: Elliptic Potentials and Twisting

Universal Lax pairs of the root type with spectral parameter and independent coupling constants for twisted non-simply laced Calogero-Moser models are constructed. Together with the Lax pairs for the simply laced models and untwisted non-simply laced models presented in two previous papers, this completes the derivation of universal Lax pairs for all of the Calogero-Moser models based on root systems. As for the twisted models based on B_n, C_n and BC_nroot systems, a new type of potential term with independent coupling constants can be added without destroying integrability. They are called extended twisted models. All of the Lax pairs for the twisted models presented here are new, except for the one for the F_4 model based on the short roots. The Lax pairs for the twisted G_2 model have some novel features. Derivation of various functions, twisted and untwisted, appearing in the Lax pairs for elliptic potentials with the spectral parameter is provided. The origin of the spectral parameter is also naturally explained. The Lax pairs with spectral parameter, twisted and untwisted, for the hyperbolic, the trigonometric and the rational potential models are obtained as degenerate limits of those for the elliptic potential models.

Calogero-Moser Models II: Symmetries and Foldings

Universal Lax pairs (the root type and the minimal type) are presented for Calogero-Moser models based on simply laced root systems, including E_8. They exist with and without spectral parameter and they work for all of the four choices of potentials: the rational, trigonometric, hyperbolic and elliptic. For the elliptic potential, the discrete symmetries of the simply laced models, originating from the automorphism of the extended Dynkin diagrams, are combined with the periodicity of the potential to derive a class of Calogero-Moser models known as the `twisted non-simply laced models'. For untwisted non-simply laced models, two kinds of root type Lax pairs (based on long roots and short roots) are derived which contain independent coupling constants for the long and short roots. The BC_n model contains three independent couplings, for the long, middle and short roots. The G_2 model based on long roots exhibits a new feature which deserves further study.

Calogero-Moser Models: A New Formulation

A new formulation of Calogero-Moser models based on root systems and their Weyl group is presented. The general construction of the Lax pairs applicable to all models based on the simply-laced algebras (ADE) are given for two types which we call `root' and `minimal'. The root type Lax pair is new; the matrices used in its construction bear a resemblance to the adjoint representation of the associated Lie algebra, and exist for all models, but they do not contain elements associated with the zero weights corresponding to the Cartan subalgebra. The root type provides a simple method of constructing sufficiently many number of conserved quantities for all models, including the one based on $E_{8}$, whose integrability had been an unsolved problem for more than twenty years. The minimal types provide a unified description of all known examples of Calogero-Moser Lax pairs and add some more. In both cases, the root type and the minimal type, the formulation works for all of the four choices of potentials: the rational, trigonometric, hyperbolic and elliptic.

Non-Linear Sigma Models on a Half Plane

In the context of integrable field theory with boundary, the integrable non-linear sigma models in two dimensions, for example, the $O(N)$, the principal chiral, the ${\rm CP}^{N-1}$ and the complex Grassmannian sigma models are discussed on a half plane. In contrast to the well known cases of sine-Gordon, non-linear Schrödinger and affine Toda field theories, these non-linear sigma models in two dimensions are not classically integrable if restricted on a half plane. It is shown that the infinite set of non-local charges characterising the integrability on the whole plane is not conserved for the free (Neumann) boundary condition. If we require that these non-local charges to be conserved, then the solutions become trivial.

Affine Toda field theory on a half line

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. In particular, for the $a_n\ (n>1)$ series of models there can be no free parameters introduced by the boundary condition; indeed the only remaining freedom (apart from choosing the simple condition $\partial_1ϕ=0$), resides in a choice of signs. For a special case of the boundary condition, it is argued that the classical boundary bound state spectrum is closely related to a consistent set of reflection factors in the quantum field theory.

Reflection Bootstrap Equations for Toda Field Theory

An algebraic approach to integrable quantum field theory with a boundary (a half line) is presented and interesting algebraic equations, Reflection equations (RE) and Reflection Bootstrap equations (RBE) are discussed. The Reflection equations are a consistent generalisation of Yang-Baxter equations for factorisable scatterings on a half line (or with a reflecting boundary). They determine the so-called reflection matrices. However, for Toda field theory and/or other theories with diagonal S-matrices, the Reflection-Bootstrap equations proposed by Fring and Köberle determine the reflection matrices, since the reflection equations and the Yang-Baxter equations become trivial in these cases. The explicit forms of the reflection matrices together with their symmetry properties are given for various Toda field theories, simply laced and non-simply laced.

On a generalised bootstrap principle

The S-matrices for non-simply-laced affine Toda field theories are considered in the context of a generalised bootstrap principle. The S-matrices, and in particular their poles, depend on a parameter whose range lies between the Coxeter numbers of dual pairs of the corresponding non-simply-laced algebras. It is proposed that only odd order poles in the physical strip with positive coefficients throughout this range should participate in the bootstrap. All other singularities have an explanation in principle in terms of a generalised Coleman-Thun mechanism. Besides the S-matrices introduced by Delius, Grisaru and Zanon, the missing case ($f_4^{(1)},e_6^{(2)}$), is also considered and provides many interesting examples of pole generation.

Covariance Properties of Reflection Equation Algebras

The reflection equations (RE) are a consistent extension of the Yang-Baxter equations (YBE) with an addition of one element, the so-called reflection matrix or $K$-matrix. For example, they describe the conditions for factorizable scattering on a half line just like the YBE give the conditions for factorizable scattering on an entire line. The YBE were generalized to define quadratic algebras, \lq Yang-Baxter algebras\rq\ (YBA), which were used intensively for the discussion of quantum groups. Similarly, the RE define quadratic algebras, \lq the reflection equation algebras\rq\ (REA), which enjoy various remarkable properties both new and inherited from the YBA. Here we focus on the various properties of the REA, in particular, the quantum group comodule properties, generation of a series of new solutions by composing known solutions, the extended REA and the central elements, etc.

Singularity analysis in $A_n$ Affine Toda Theories

The leading and the subleading Landau singularities in affine Toda field theories are examined in some detail. Formulae describing the subleading simple pole structure of box diagrams are given explicitly. This leads to a new and nontrivial test of the conjectured exact S-matrices for these theories. We show that to the one-loop level the conjectured S-matrices of the $A_n$ Toda family reproduce the correct singularity structure, leading as well as subleading, of the field theoretical amplitudes. The present test has the merit of being independent of the details of the renormalisations.

Constant Solutions of Reflection Equations and Quantum Groups

To the Yang-Baxter equation an additional relation can be added. This is the reflection equation which appears in various places, with or without spectral parameter. For example, in factorizable scattering on a half-line, integrable lattice models with non-periodic boundary conditions, non-commutative differential geometry on quantum groups, etc. We study two forms of spectral parameter independent reflection equations, chosen by the requirement that their solutions be comodules with respect to the quantum group coaction leaving invariant the reflection equations. For a variety of known solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation we give the constant solutions of the reflection equations. Various quadratic algebras defined by the reflection equations are also given explicitly.
