First order quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the sinh-Gordon model

The sinh-Gordon model is restricted to a half-line by boundary conditions maintaining integrability. A perturbative calculation of the reflection factor is given to one loop order in the bulk coupling and to first order in the difference of the two parameters introduced at the boundary, providing a further verification of Ghoshal's formula. The calculation is consistent with a conjecture for the general dependence of the reflection factor on the boundary parameters and the bulk coupling.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figur

Second order quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the sinh-Gordon model

The sinh-Gordon model on a half-line with integrable boundary conditions is considered in low order perturbation theory developed in affine Toda field theory. The quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the model are studied up to the second order in the difference of the two boundary parameters and to one loop order in the bulk coupling. It is noticed that the general form of the second order quantum corrections are consistent with Ghoshal's formula.Comment: 24 pages and 1 figure. LaTex2

On the perturbative expansion of boundary reflection factors of the supersymmetric sinh-Gordon model

The supersymmetric sinh-Gordon model on a half-line with integrable boundary conditions is considered perturbatively to verify conjectured exact reflection factors to one loop order. Propagators for the boson and fermion fields restricted to a half-line contain several novel features and are developed as prerequisites for the calculations.Comment: 19 pages, 2 figure

On the quantum reflection factor for the sinh-Gordon model with general boundary conditions

The one loop quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the sinh-Gordon model are calculated partially for general boundary conditions. The model is studied under boundary conditions which are compatible with integrability, and in the framework of the conventional perturbation theory generalized to the affine Toda field theory. It is found that the general form of the related quantum corrections are hypergeometric functions.Comment: 32 pages and 1 figure. LaTex2
