Non-local non-linear sigma models
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We study non-local non-linear sigma models in arbitrary dimension, focusing on the scale invariant limit in which the scalar fields naturally have scaling dimension zero, so that the free propagator is logarithmic.

Integrable crosscaps in classical sigma models
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We study the integrable boundaries and crosscaps of classical sigma models. We show that there exists a classical analog of the integrability condition and KT-relation of the boundary and crosscap states of quantum spin chains.

Integrability, duality and sigma models
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We introduce and study conformal field theories specified by W −algebras commuting with certain set of screening charges. These CFT’s possess perturbations which define integrable QFT’s. We establish that these QFT’s have local and non-local Integrals of

Sigma models with negative curvature
Physics Letters B, 2016 We construct Higgs Effective Field Theory (HEFT) based on the scalar manifold Hn, which is a hyperbolic space of constant negative curvature. The Lagrangian has a non-compact O(n,1) global symmetry group, but it gives a unitary theory as long as only a ...

Topological sigma models on supermanifolds
Nuclear Physics B, 2017 This paper concerns constructing topological sigma models governing maps from semirigid super Riemann surfaces to general target supermanifolds. We define both the A model and B model in this general setup by defining suitable BRST operators and physical

Supergravity solution-generating techniques and canonical transformations of σ-models from O(D, D)
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Within the framework of the flux formulation of Double Field Theory (DFT) we employ a generalised Scherk-Schwarz ansatz and discuss the classification of the twists that in the presence of the strong constraint give rise to constant generalised fluxes ...

Anderson localization in sigma models
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018 In QCD above the chiral restoration temperature there exists an Anderson transition in the fermion spectrum from localized to delocalized modes. We investigate whether the same holds for nonlinear sigma models which share properties like dynamical mass ...

βγ-systems interacting with sigma-models
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We find a geometric description of interacting βγ-systems as a null Kac-Moody quotient of a nonlinear sigma-model for systems with varying amounts of supersymmetry.

T-duality in (2, 1) superspace
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We find the T-duality transformation rules for 2-dimensional (2,1) supersymmetric sigma-models in (2,1) superspace. Our results clarify certain aspects of the (2,1) sigma model geometry relevant to the discussion of T-duality.

Journal of High Energy PhysicsWith the use of mathematical techniques of tropical geometry, it was shown by Mikhalkin some twenty years ago that certain Gromov-Witten invariants associated with topological quantum field theories of pseudoholomorphic maps can be computed by going to ...
