Discrete Toda field equations

The article considers lattices of the two-dimensional Toda type, which can be interpreted as dressing chains for spatially two-dimensional generalizations of equations of the class of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. The well-known example of this kind of generalization is the Davey-Stewartson equation. It turns out that the finite-field reductions of these lattices, obtained by imposing cutoff boundary conditions of an appropriate type, are Darboux integrable, i.e., they h...

A general and systematic construction of Non Abelian affine Toda models and its symmetries is proposed in terms of its underlying Lie algebraic structure. It is also shown that such class of two dimensional integrable models naturally leads to the construction of a pair of actions related by T-duality transformations

We consider a class of 2 dimensional Toda equations on discrete space-time. It has arisen as functional relations in commuting family of transfer matrices in solvable lattice models associated with any classical simple Lie algebra $X_r$. For $X_r = B_r, C_r$ and $D_r$, we present the solution in terms of Pfaffians and determinants. They may be viewed as Yangian analogues of the classical Jacobi-Trudi formula on Schur functions.

The affine Toda field theories based on the non simply-laced Lie algebras are discussed. By rewriting the S-matrix formulae found by Delius et al, a universal form for the coupling-constant dependence of these models is obtained, and related to various general properties of the classical couplings. This is illustrated via the S-matrix associated with the dual pair of algebras $f_4^{(1)}$ and $e_6^{(2)}$.

A Toda equation is specified by a choice of a Lie group and a $\mathbb Z$-gradation of its Lie algebra. The Toda equations associated with loop groups of complex classical Lie groups, whose Lie algebras are endowed with integrable $\mathbb Z$-gradations with finite dimensional grading subspaces, are described in an explicit form.

We study the two-dimensional affine Toda field equations for affine Lie algebra $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$ modified by a conformal transformation and the associated linear equations. In the conformal limit, the associated linear problem reduces to a (pseudo-)differential equation. For classical affine Lie algebra $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$, we obtain a (pseudo-)differential equation corresponding to the Bethe equations for the Langlands dual of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, which were ...

Using Hirota's method, solitons are constructed for affine Toda field theories based on the simply-laced affine algebras. By considering automorphisms of the simply-laced Dynkin diagrams, solutions to the remaining algebras, twisted as well as untwisted, are deduced.

A new parameterisation of the solutions of Toda field theory is introduced. In this parameterisation, the solutions of the field equations are real, well-defined functions on space-time, which is taken to be two-dimensional Minkowski space or a cylinder. The global structure of the covariant phase space of Toda theory is examined and it is shown that it is isomorphic to the Hamiltonian phase space. The Poisson brackets of Toda theory are then calculated. Finally, using the me...

We propose affine Toda field theories related to the non-crystallographic Coxeter groups H_2, H_3 and H_4. The classical mass spectrum, the classical three-point couplings and the one-loop corrections to the mass renormalisation are determined. The construction is carried out by means of a reduction procedure from crystallographic to non-crystallographic Coxeter groups. The embedding structure explains for various affine Toda field theories that their particles can be organis...

Integrable cut-off constraints for semidiscrete Toda lattice are studied in this paper. Lax presentation for semidiscrete analog of the $C$-series Toda lattice is obtained. Nonlocal variables that allow to express symmetries of the infinite semidiscrete lattice are introduced and cut-off constraints or a certain type compatible with symmetries of the infinite lattice are classified.
