Normalization Factors, Reflection Amplitudes and Integrable Systems

We calculate normalization factors and reflection amplitudes in the W-invariant conformal quantum field theories. Using these CFT data we derive vacuum expectation values of exponential fields in affine Toda theories and related perturbed conformal field theories. We apply these results to evaluate explicitly the expectation values of order parameters in the field theories associated with statistical systems, like XY, Z_n-Ising and Ashkin-Teller models. The same results are used for the calculation of the asymptotics of cylindrically symmetric solutions of the classical Toda equations which appear in topological field theories. The integrable boundary Toda theories are considered. We derive boundary reflection amplitudes in non-affine case and boundary one point functions in affine Toda theories. The boundary ground state energies are cojectured. In the last section we describe the duality properties and calculate the reflection amplitudes in integrable deformed Toda theories.

Reflection Amplitudes in Non-Simply Laced Toda Theories and Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz

We study the ultraviolet asymptotics in non-simply laced affine Toda theories considering them as perturbed non-affine Toda theories, which possess the extended conformal symmetry. We calculate the reflection amplitudes, in non-affine Toda theories and use them to derive the quantization condition for the vacuum wave function, describing zero-mode dynamics. The solution of this quantization conditions for the ground state energy determines the UV asymptotics of the effective central charge. These asymptotics are in a good agreement with Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz(TBA) results. To make the comparison with TBA possible, we give the exact relations between parameters of the action and masses of particles as well as the bulk free energies for non-simply laced affine Toda theories.

Reflection Amplitudes of ADE Toda Theories and Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz

We study the ultraviolet asymptotics in affine Toda theories. These models are considered as perturbed non-affine Toda theories. We calculate the reflection amplitudes, which relate different exponential fields with the same quantum numbers. Using these amplitudes we derive the quantization condition for the vacuum wave function, describing zero-mode dynamics, and calculate the UV asymptotics of the effective central charge. These asymptotics are in a good agreement with thermodynamic Bethe ansatz results.

Expectation values of local fields for a two-parameter family of integrable models and related perturbed conformal field theories

We calculate the vacuum expectation values of local fields for the two-parameter family of integrable field theories introduced and studied by Fateev. Using this result we propose an explicit expression for the vacuum expectation values of local operators in parafermionic sine-Gordon models and in integrable perturbed SU(2) coset conformal field theories.

Fermion-boson duality in integrable quantum field theory

We introduce and study one parameter family of integrable quantum field theories. This family has a Lagrangian description in terms of massive Thirring fermions $ψ,ψ^{\dagger}$ and charged bosons $χ,\barχ$ of complex sinh-Gordon model coupled with $BC_n$ affine Toda theory. Perturbative calculations, analysis of the factorized scattering theory and the Bethe ansatz technique are applied to show that under duality transformation, which relates weak and strong coupling regimes of the theory the fermions $ψ,ψ^{\dagger}$ transform to bosons and $χ,\barχ$ and vive versa. The scattering amplitudes of neutral particles in this theory coincide exactly with S-matrix of particles in pure $BC_n$ Toda theory, i.e. the contribution of charged bosons and fermions to these amplitudes exactly cancel each other. We describe and discuss the symmetry responsible for this compensation property.

Principal Chiral Field at Large N

We present the exact and explicit solution of the principal chiral field in two dimensions for an infinitely large rank group manifold. The energy of the ground state is explicitly found for the external Noether's fields of an arbitrary magnitude. The exact Gell-Mann - Low function exhibits the asymptotic freedom behaviour at large value of the field in agreement with perturbative calculations. Coefficients of the perturbative expansion in the renormalized charge are calculated. They grow factorially with the order showing the presence of renormalons. At small field we found an inverse logarithmic singularity in the ground state energy at the mass gap which indicates that at $N=\infty$ the spectrum of the theory contains extended objects rather then pointlike particles.
