Supersymmetry in the boundary tricritical Ising field theory
نویسنده
چکیده
We argue that it is possible to maintain both supersymmetry and integrability in the boundary tricritical Ising field theory. Indeed, we find two sets of boundary conditions and corresponding boundary perturbations which are both supersymmetric and integrable. The first set corresponds to a “direct sum” of two non-supersymmetric theories studied earlier by Chim. The second set corresponds to a one-parameter deformation of another theory studied by Chim. For both cases, the conserved supersymmetry charges are linear combinations of Q, Q̄ and the spin-reversal operator Γ.

Tricritical Ising Model with a Boundary ∗
We study the integrable and supersymmetric massivê φ (1,3) deformation of the tricritical Ising model in the presence of a boundary. We use constraints from su-persymmetry in order to compute the exact boundary S-matrices, which turn out to depend explicitly on the topological charge of the supersymmetry algebra. We also solve the general boundary Yang-Baxter equation and show that in appropria...
متن کاملTBA boundary flows in the tricritical Ising field theory
Boundary S matrices for the boundary tricritical Ising field theory (TIM), both with and without supersymmetry, have previously been proposed. Here we provide support for these S matrices by showing that the corresponding boundary entropies are consistent with the expected boundary flows. We develop the fusion procedure for boundary RSOS models, with which we derive exact inversion identities f...
متن کاملKink Confinement and Supersymmetry
We analyze non-integrable deformations of two-dimensional N = 1 supersymmetric quantum field theories with kink excitations. As example, we consider the multifrequency Super Sine Gordon model. At weak coupling, this model is robust with respect to kink confinement phenomena, in contrast to the purely bosonic case. If we vary the coupling, the model presents a sequence of phase transitions, wher...
متن کاملUniversal ratios in the 2D tricritical ising model
We consider the universality class of the two-dimensional tricritical Ising model. The scaling form of the free energy leads to the definition of universal ratios of critical amplitudes which may have experimental relevance. We compute these universal ratios by a combined use of results coming from perturbed conformal field theory, integrable quantum field theory, and numerical methods.
متن کاملIntegrals of motion from TBA and lattice-conformal dictionary
The integrals of motion of the tricritical Ising model are obtained by Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equations derived from the A4 integrable lattice model. They are compared with those given by the conformal field theory leading to a unique one-to-one lattice-conformal correspondence. They can also be followed along the renormalization group flows generated by the action of the boundary fie...
