At one loop, we provide an explicit formula for the ground state of the one-soliton sector in the Sine-Gordon theory. The state is given in the basis of eigenstates of the field operator, or equivalently as a Schrodinger wave functional. The formula readily generalizes to other solitons in other models and as an example we also provide the ground state of the kink in the (1+1)-dimensional $ϕ^4$ double well.

We derive a generalization of the Destri - De Vega equation governing the scaling functions of some excited states in the Sine-Gordon theory. In particular configurations with an even number of holes and no strings are analyzed and their UV limits found to match some of the conformal dimensions of the corresponding compactified massless free boson. Quantum group reduction allows to interpret some of our results as scaling functions of excited states of Restricted Sine-Gordon theory, i.e. minimal models perturbed by phi_13 in their massive regime. In particular we are able to reconstruct the sc…
This work deals with a new family of models, which includes the sine-Gordon model and the double-sine-Gordon, triple-sine-Gordon and so on. The investigation is based on a deformation procedure, which is used to deform a well-known model, to get to the family of sine-Gordon models. Due to properties of the procedure, we get to the models and find the corresponding solutions explicitly, together with all the important features they engender.
In this paper the quantum direct scattering problem is solved for the Sine-Gordon model. Correlators of the Jost functions are derived by the angular quantization method.
We show how to compute form factors, matrix elements of local fields, in the restricted sine-Gordon model, at the reflectionless points, by quantizing solitons. We introduce (quantum) separated variables in which the Hamiltonians are expressed in terms of (quantum) tau-functions. We explicitly describe the soliton wave functions, and we explain how the restriction is related to an unusual hermitian structure. We also present a semi-classical analysis which enlightens the fact that the restricted sine-Gordon model corresponds to an analytical continuation of the sine-Gordon model, intermediate …
We study the boundary S-matrix for the reflection of bound states of the two-dimensional sine-Gordon integrable field theory in the presence of a boundary.
We propose nonlinear integral equations to describe the groundstate energy of the fractional supersymmetric sine-Gordon models. The equations encompass the N=1 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model as well as the phi_(id,id,adj) perturbation of the SU(2)_L x SU(2)_K /SU(2)_(L+K) models at rational level K. A second set of equations are proposed for the groundstate energy of the N=2 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model.
Using the proposed AdS/CFT correspondence, we calculate the correlators of operators of conformal field theory at the boundary of AdS$_{d+1}$ corresponding to the sine-Gordon model in the bulk.
We apply the fermionic description of CFT obtained in our previous work to the computation of the one-point functions of the descendant fields in the sine-Gordon model.
We investigate the S-matrix of N=2 supersymmetric sine-Gordon theory based on the N=2 supersymmetry and the quantum group structure. The topological charges play an important role to derive physical contents.
In the framework of the functional renormalization group method it is shown that the phase structure of the 2-dimensional sine-Gordon model possesses a nontrivial UV fixed point which makes the model asymptotically safe. The fixed point exhibits strong singularity similarly to the scaling found in the vicinity of the infrared fixed point. The singularity signals the upper energy-scale limit to the validity of the model. We argue that the sine-Gordon model with a momentum-dependent wavefunction renormalization is in a dual connection with the massive sine-Gordon model.
We develop a local study of the Green's function and energy density for mesons fluctuating around the sine-Gordon kink background.
It is demonstrated that the breather solutions recently discovered in the weakly coupled topological discrete sine-Gordon system are spectrally unstable. This is in contrast with more conventional spatially discrete systems, whose breathers are always spectrally stable at sufficiently weak coupling.
The Casimir energy of quantum fluctuations about the classical kink configuration is computed numerically for a recently proposed lattice sine-Gordon model. This energy depends periodically on the kink position and is found to be approximately sinusoidal.
The critical values of the Yang-Yang functional corresponding to the vacuum states of the sine-Gordon QFT in the finite-volume are studied. Two major applications are discussed: (i) generalization of Fendley-Saleur-Zamolodchikov relations to arbitrary values of the sine-Gordon coupling constant, and (ii) connection problem for a certain two-parameter family of solutions of the Painleve III equation.
We generalize the Lund-Regge model for vortex string dynamics in 4-dimensional Minkowski space to the arbitrary n-dimensional case. The n-dimensional vortex equation is identified with a nonabelian sine-Gordon equation and its integrability is proven by finding the associated linear equations of the inverse scattering. An explicit expression of vortex coordinates in terms of the variables of the nonabelian sine-Gordon system is derived. In particular, we obtain the n-dimensional vortex soliton solution of the Hasimoto-type from the one soliton solution of the nonabelian sine-Gordon equation.
This is the extended write-up of a series of lectures on the duality between the Sine-Gordon model and the Thirring model. Prepared for the London Theory Institute (LonTI) - Fall 2022: a PhD-level mini-course, with exercises and a guide to the literature.
We recalculate the two-loop beta functions in the two-dimensional Sine-Gordon model in a two-parameter expansion around the asymptotically free point. Our results agree with those of Amit et al., J. Phys. A13 (1980) 585.
We construct an action for the N=2 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model on the half-line, which we argue is both supersymmetric and integrable. The boundary interaction depends on three continuous boundary parameters, as well as the bulk mass parameter.
Boundary operators and boundary ground states in sine-Gordon model with a fixed boundary condition are studied using bosonization and q-deformed oscillators.We also obtain the form-factors of this model.
Two sets of super Riccati equations are presented which result in two linear problems of super sine-Gordon equation. The linear problems are then shown to be related to each other by a super gauge transformation and to the super Bäcklund transformation of the equation.
We study a new family of models of the sine-Gordon type, starting from the sine-Gordon model, including the double sine-Gordon, the triple one, and so on. The models appears as deformations of the starting model, with the deformation controlled by two parameters, one very small, used to control a linear expansion on it, and the other, which specifies the particular model in the family of models. We investigate the presence of topological defects, showing how the solutions can be constructed explicitly from the topological defects of the sine-Gordon model itself. In particular, we delve into th…
Using the boundary Yang-Baxter equations and exact results on the bulk $S$-matrices, we compute exact boundary scattering amplitudes of the supersymmetric sine-Gordon model with integrable boundary potentials.
Darboux transformation is constructed for superfields of the super sine-Gordon equation and the superfields of the associated linear problem. The Darboux transformation is shown to be related to the super Bäcklund transformation and is further used to obtain $N$ super soliton solutions.
The Euclidean analogues of the sine-Gordon solitons are used as sources of the heterotic fivebrane solutions in the ten-dimensional heterotic string theory. Some properties of these soliton solutions are discussed. These solitons in principle can appear as string-like objects in 4-dimensional space-time after proper compactifications.
We present the coupled nonlinear integral equations (NLIE) governing the finite size effects in N=1 super sine-Gordon model for the vacuum as well as for the excited states. Their infrared limit correctly yields the scattering data of the super sine-Gordon S-matrix conjectured by Ahn. Ultraviolet analysis is in agreement with the expected conformal data of c=3/2 CFT. Conformal perturbation theory further corroborates this result.
The goal of this paper is to give a representation-theoretic interpretation of the sine-Gordon equation. We consider a vertex operator representation of affine Kac-Moody algebra \hat{sl_2} on the space of differential operators. In this formulation, the tau-function becomes a function of non-commuting variables. Using the skew Casimir operators, we obtain a hierarchy of equations in Hirota form that contains sine-Gordon, KdV and mKdV equations and construct their soliton solutions.
We show that the the generalized Calogero-Moser model with boundary potential of the Pöschl-Teller type describes the non-relativistic limit of the quantum sine-Gordon model on a half-line with Dirichlet boundary condition.
The massive Schwinger and the massive sine-Gordon models are proved to be equivalent at finite temperature, using the path-integral framework. The well known relations among the parameters of these models to establish the duality at $T=0$, also remain valid at non zero temperature.
We discuss Coleman's theorem concerning the energy density of the ground state of the sine-Gordon model proved in Phys. Rev. D 11, 2088 (1975). According to this theorem the energy density of the ground state of the sine-Gordon model should be unbounded from below for coupling constants beta^2 > 8 pi. The consequence of this theorem would be the non-existence of the quantum ground state of the sine-Gordon model for beta^2 > 8 pi. We show that the energy density of the ground state in the sine-Gordon model is bounded from below even for beta^2 > 8 pi. This result is discussed in relation to Col…
Using a simple ansatz for the solutions of the three dimensional generalization of the sine--Gordon and Toda model introduced by Konopelchenko and Rogers, a class of solutions is found by elementary methods. It is also shown that these equations are not evolution equations in the sense that solution to the initial value problem is not unique.
The CGHS model of two-dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to a sine-Gordon matter field is considered. The theory is exactly solvable classically, and the solutions of a kink and two-kink type solitons are studied in connection with black hole formation.
A non-trivial interplay of the UV and IR scaling laws, a generalization of the universality is demonstrated in the framework of the massive sine-Gordon model, as a result of a detailed study of the global behaviour of the renormalization group flow and the phase structure.
We calculate the quantum vacuum interaction energy between two kinks of the sine-Gordon equation. Using the $TGTG$--formula, the problem is reduced to the known formulas for quantum fluctuations in the background of a single kink. This interaction induces an attractive force between the kinks in parallel to the Casimir force between conducting mirrors.
In this paper, we examine the complex sine-Gordon model in the presence of a boundary, and derive boundary conditions that preserve integrability. We present soliton and breather solutions, investigate the scattering of particles and solitons off the boundary and examine the existence of classical solutions corresponding to boundary bound states.
We provide a brief characterization of the main features of the homogeneous sine-Gordon models and discuss a general construction principle for colour valued S-matrices, associated to a pair of simply laced Lie algebras, which contain the homogeneous sine-Gordon models as a subclass. We give a brief introduction to the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and the form factor approach and discuss explicit solutions for both methods related to the homogeneous Sine-Gordon models and its generalization.
We study stability of a generalized sine-Gordon model with two coupled scalar fields in two dimensions. Topological soliton solutions are found from the first-order equations that solve the equations of motion. The perturbation equations can be cast in terms of a Schrodinger-like operators for fluctuations and their spectra are calculated.
We consider the Sine-Gordon model coupled to 2D gravity. We find a nonperturbative expression for the partition function as a function of the cosmological constant, the SG mass and the SG coupling constant. At genus zero, the partition function exhibits singularities which are interpreted as signals of phase transitions. A semiclassical picture of one of these transitions is proposed. According to this picture, a phase in which the Sine-Gordon field and the geometry are frozen melts into another phase in which the fields and geometry become dynamical.
The functional renormalization group treatment is presented for the two-dimensional sine-Gordon model by including a bilocal term in the potential, which contributes to the flow at tree level. It is shown that the flow of the bilocal term can substitute the evolution of the wave function renormalization constant, and then the Kosterlitz-Thouless type phase transition can be recovered.
We construct a boundary Lagrangian for the N=2 supersymmetric sine-Gordon model which preserves (B-type) supersymmetry and integrability to all orders in the bulk coupling constant g. The supersymmetry constraint is expressed in terms of matrix factorisations.
We study bosonization of the sine-Gordon theory in the presence of boundary interactions at the free fermion point. In this way we obtain the boundary S-matrix as a function of physical parameters in the boundary sine-Gordon Lagrangian. The boundary S-matrix can be matched onto the solution of Ghoshal and Zamolodchikov, thereby relating the formal parameters in the latter solution to the physical parameters in the lagrangian.
Two series of integrable theories are constructed which have soliton solutions and can be thought of as generalizations of the sine-Gordon theory. They exhibit internal symmetries and can be described as gauged WZW theories with a potential term. The spectrum of massive states is determined.
The symmetric space sine-Gordon models arise by conformal reduction of ordinary 2-dim $σ$-models, and they are integrable exhibiting a black-hole type metric in target space. We provide a Lagrangian formulation of these systems by considering a triplet of Lie groups $F \supset G \supset H$. We show that for every symmetric space $F/G$, the generalized sine-Gordon models can be derived from the $G/H$ WZW action, plus a potential term that is algebraically specified. Thus, the symmetric space sine-Gordon models describe certain integrable perturbations of coset conformal field theories at the cl…
The quantum complex sine-Gordon model on a half line is studied. The quantum spectrum of boundary bound states using the the semi-classical method of Dashen, Hasslacher and Neveu is obtained. The results are compared and found to agree with the bootstrap programme. A particle/soliton reflection factor is conjectured, which is consistent with unitary, crossing and our semi-classical results.
We argue that, contrary to previous claims, the supersymmetric sine-Gordon model with boundary has a two-parameter family of boundary interactions which preserves both integrability and supersymmetry. We also propose the corresponding boundary S matrix for the first supermultiplet of breathers.
In this thesis, we review recent progresses on Nonlinear Integral Equation approach to finite size effects in two dimensional integrable quantum field theories, with emphasis to Sine-Gordon/Massive Thirring model and restrictions to minimal models perturbed by $Φ_{1,3}$. Exact calculations of the dependence of energy levels on the size are presented for vacuum and many excited states.
In this paper we constructed integrable defects in complex sine-Gordon theory. Soliton and particle interactions with the defect are analysed. Defects are used to dress Dirichlet boundaries to create a wider class of integrable boundary conditions to ones previously studied. Properties of these new boundaries including soliton and particle reflections with the boundaries are presented.
The semi-classical quantisation of the two lowest energy static solutions of boundary sine-Gordon model is considered. A relation between the Lagrangian and bootstrap parameters is established by comparing their quantum corrected energy difference and the exact one. This relation is also confirmed by studying the semi-classical limit of soliton reflections on the boundary.
We investigate various excited states of Sine-Gordon model on a strip with Dirichlet boundary conditions on both boundaries using a Non Linear Integral Equation (NLIE) approach.
We construct the restricted sine-Gordon theory by truncating the sine-Gordon multi-soliton Hilbert space for the repulsive coupling constant due to the quantum group symmetry $SL_q(2)$ which we identify from the Korepin's $S$-matrices. We connect this restricted sine-Gordon theory with the minimal ($c<1$) conformal field theory ${\cal M}_{p/p+2}$ ($p$ odd) perturbed by the least relevent primary field $Φ_{1,3}$. The exact $S$-matrices are derived for the particle spectrum of a kink and neutral particles. As a consistency check, we compute the central charge of the restricted theory in the UV l…
In this paper, the relationship between the sine-Gordon model with an integrable boundary condition and the Thirring model with boundary is discussed and the reflection $R$-matrix for the massive Thirring model, which is related to the physical boundary parameters of the sine-Gordon model, is given. The relationship between the the boundary parameters and the two formal parameters appearing in the work of Ghoshal and Zamolodchikov is discussed.
The renormalization group flow is presented for the two-dimensional sine-Gordon model within the framework of the functional renormalization group method by including the wave-function renormalization constant. The Kosterlitz-Thouless-Berezinski type phase structure is recovered as the interpolating scaling law between two competing IR attractive area of the global renormalization group flow.
We obtain exactly the vacuum expectation values $<(\partialϕ)^2 ({\bar\partial}ϕ) e^{iαϕ}>$ in the sine-Gordon model and $<L_{-2}{\bar L}_{-2} Φ_{l,k}>$ in $Φ_{1,3}$ perturbed minimal CFT. We discuss applications of these results to short-distance expansions of two-point correlation functions.
The quantum affine symmetry of the sine-Gordon theory at q^2 = 1, which occurs at the reflectionless points, is studied. Conserved currents that correspond to the closure of simple root generators are considered, and shown to be local. We argue that they satisfy the affine sl(2) algebra. Examples of these currents are explicitly constructed.
Starting from the T-Q equation of an open integrable spin-1/2 XXZ quantum spin chain with nondiagonal boundary terms, we derive a nonlinear integral equation (NLIE) of the sine-Gordon model on a finite interval. We compute the boundary energy and the Casimir energy for the sine-Gordon model with both left and right boundaries. A relation between the boundary parameters of the continuum model and the lattice model is given. We also present numerical results for the effective central charge of an open spin-1/2 XXZ quantum spin chain which find agreement with our analytical result for the central…
Using the path-integral approach, the quantum massive Thirring and sine-Gordon models are proven to be equivalent at finite temperature. This result is an extension of Coleman's proof of the equivalence between both theories at zero temperature. The usual identifications among the parameters of these models also remain valid at $T \neq 0$.
We show how the famous soliton solution of the classical sine-Gordon field theory in $(1+1)$-dimensions may be obtained as a particular case of a solution expressed in terms of the Jacobi amplitude, which is the inverse function of the incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind.
We consider the semiclassical quantization of sine-Gordon solitons on the circle with periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions. The 1-loop quantum corrections to the mass of the solitons are determined using zeta function regularization in the integral representation. We compare the semiclassical results with exact numerical calculations in the literature and find excellent agreement even outside the plain semiclassical regime.
In this thesis we review recent progresses on Nonlinear Integral Equation approach to finite size effects in two dimensional integrable quantum field theory with boundaries, with emphasis to sine-Gordon model with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Exact calculations of the dependence of the energy spectrum on the size and on boundary conditions are presented for vacuum and many excited states.
The sine-Gordon Y-systems and those of the minimal $M_{p,q}+ϕ_{13}$ models are determined in a compact form and a correspondence between the rational numbers and a new infinite family of multi-parameter functional equations for the Rogers dilogarithm is pointed out. The relation between the TBA-duality and the massless RG fluxes in the minimal models recently conjectured is briefly discussed.
Using a field theory generalization of the spinning top motion, we construct nonabelian generalizations of the sine-Gordon theory according to each symmetric spaces. A Lagrangian formulation of these generalized sine-Gordon theories is given in terms of a deformed gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten action which also accounts for integrably perturbed coset conformal field theories. As for physical applications, we show that they become precisely the effective field theories of self-induced transparency in nonlinear optics. This provides a dictionary between field theory and nonlinear optics.
