We construct the actions of a very broad family of 2d integrable $σ$-models. Our starting point is a universal 2d action obtained in [arXiv:2008.01829] using the framework of Costello and Yamazaki based on 4d Chern-Simons theory. This 2d action depends on a pair of 2d fields $h$ and $\mathcal{L}$, with $\mathcal{L}$ depending rationally on an auxiliary complex parameter, which are tied together by a constraint. When the latter can be solved for $\mathcal{L}$ in terms of $h$ this produces a 2d integrable field theory for the 2d field $h$ whose Lax connection is given by $\mathcal{L}(h)$. We construct a general class of solutions to this constraint and show that the resulting 2d integrable field theories can all naturally be described as $\mathcal{E}$-models.
We relate two formalisms recently proposed for describing classical integrable field theories. The first is based on the action of four-dimensional holomorphic Chern-Simons theory introduced and studied by Costello, Witten and Yamazaki. The second makes use of classical generalised Gaudin models associated with untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras.
In this article it is studied the 3-brane world in the context of five-dimensional Einstein-Chern-Simons gravity. We started by considering Israel's junction condition for AdS-Chern-Simons gravity. Using the S-expansion procedure, we mapped the AdS-Chern-Simons junction conditions to Einstein-Chern-Simons gravity, allowing us to derive effective four-dimensional Einstein-Chern-Simons field equations.
We derive the framing anomaly of four-dimensional holomorphic-topological Chern-Simons theory formulated on the product of a topological surface and the complex plane. We show that the presence of this anomaly allows one to couple four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory to holomorphic field theories with Kac-Moody symmetry, where the Kac-Moody level $k$ is critical $k=-h^{\vee}$. Applying this result to a holomorphic sigma model into a complex coadjoint orbit, we derive that four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory admits holomorphic monodromy defects.
We construct the $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric extensions of different models containing a Chern-Simons term and study their BPS structure. We find that the coupling of the Chern-Simons term to the general gauged nonlinear $σ$-model allows for general potentials depending on the Kähler metric and preserving two supersymmetries. We construct from supersymmetry the potentials that allow for BPS structures in different $\mathbb{C}P^{N}$ models coupled to Chern-Simons and Maxwell terms. We also couple the Chern-Simons term to a higher-derivative field theory (the baby Skyrme model) and study its …
