Gravitational Dressing of Massive Soliton Theories
نویسنده
چکیده
The massive soliton theories describe integrable perturbations of WZW cosets as generalized multi-component sine-Gordon models. We study their coupling to 2-dim gravity in the conformal gauge and show that the resulting models can be interpreted as conformal non-Abelian Toda theories when a certain algebraic condition is satisfied. These models, however, do not provide quantum mechanically consistent string backgrounds in the case the underlying WZW constraints are first solved classically.

Gravitational Dressing of Aharonov-bohm Amplitudes *
We investigate Aharonov-Bohm scattering in a theory in which charged bosonic matter fields are coupled to topologically massive electrodynamics and topologically massive gravity. We demonstrate that, at one-loop order, the transmuted spins in this theory are related to the ones of ordinary Chern-Simons gauge theory in the same way that the Knizhnik-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov formula relates the Lio...
متن کاملGravitational Dressing of Renormalization Group
We study the gravitational dressing of renormalizable two-dimensional field theories. Our main result is that the one-loop β-function is finitely renormalized by the factor k+2 k+1 , where k is the central charge of the gravitational SL(2, R) current algebra.
متن کاملGauge Dressing of 2D Field Theories
By using the gauge Ward identities, we study correlation functions of gauged WZNW models. We show that the gauge dressing of the correlation functions can be taken into account as a solution of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation. Our method is analogous to the analysis of the gravitational dressing of 2D field theories.
متن کاملA simple formula for the conserved charges of soliton theories
We present a simple formula for all the conserved charges of soliton theories, evaluated on the solutions belonging to the orbit of the vacuum under the group of dressing transformations. For pedagogical reasons we perform the explicit calculations for the case of the sine-Gordon model, taken as a prototype of soliton theories. We show that the energy and momentum are boundary terms for all the...
متن کاملDynkin Diagrams of Cp
We investigate N = 2 supersymmetric sigma model orbifolds of the sphere in the large radius limit. These correspond to N = 2 superconformal field theories. Using the equations of topological-anti-topological fusion for the topological orbifold, we compute the generalized Dynkin diagrams of these theories i.e., the soliton spectrum which was used in the classification of massive superconformal t...
