Symplectic leaves of W-algebras from the reduced Kac-Moody point of view

The symplectic leaves of W-algebras are the intersections of the symplectic leaves of the Kac-Moody algebras and the hypersurface of the second class constraints, which define the W-algebra. This viewpoint enables us to classify the symplectic leaves and also to give a representative for each of them. The case of the (W_{2}) (Virasoro) algebra is investigated in detail, where the positivity of the energy functional is also analyzed.Comment: Latex, 6 pages, Talk presented by Z.

Explicit boundary form factors: the scaling Lee-Yang model

We provide explicit expressions for boundary form factors in the boundary scaling Lee-Yang model for operators with the mildest ultraviolet behavior for all integrable boundary conditions. The form factors of the boundary stress tensor take a determinant form, while the form factors of the boundary primary field contain additional explicit polynomials.Comment: 18 pages, References adde

Boundary reduction formula

An asymptotic theory is developed for general non-integrable boundary quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions based on the Langrangean description. Reflection matrices are defined to connect asymptotic states and are shown to be related to the Green functions via the boundary reduction formula derived. The definition of the $R$-matrix for integrable theories due to Ghoshal and Zamolodchikov and the one used in the perturbative approaches are shown to be related.Comment: 12 pages, Latex2e file with 5 eps figures, two Appendices about the boundary Feynman rules and the structure of the two point functions are adde

A2 Toda theory in reduced WZNW framework and the representations of the W algebra

Using the reduced WZNW formulation we analyse the classical $W$ orbit content of the space of classical solutions of the $A_2$ Toda theory. We define the quantized Toda field as a periodic primary field of the $W$ algebra satisfying the quantized equations of motion. We show that this local operator can be constructed consistently only in a Hilbert space consisting of the representations corresponding to the minimal models of the $W$ algebra.Comment: 38 page

C2C_2 Toda theory in the reduced WZNW framework

We consider the $C_2$ Toda theory in the reduced WZNW framework. Analysing the classical representation space of the symmetry algebra (which is the corresponding $C_2$ $W$ algebra) we determine its classical highest weight representations. We quantise the model promoting only the relevant quantities to operators. Using the quantised equation of motion we determine the selection rules for the $u$ field that corresponds to one of the Toda fields and give restrictions for its amplitude functions and for the structure of the Hilbert space of the model

Solving topological defects via fusion

Integrable defects in two-dimensional integrable models are purely transmitting thus topological. By fusing them to integrable boundaries new integrable boundary conditions can be generated, and, from the comparison of the two solved boundary theories, explicit solutions of defect models can be extracted. This idea is used to determine the transmission factors and defect energies of topological defects in sinh-Gordon and Lee-Yang models. The transmission factors are checked in Lagrangian perturbation theory in the sinh-Gordon case, while the defect energies are checked against defect thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations derived to describe the ground-state energy of diagonal defect systems on a cylinder. Defect bootstrap equations are also analyzed and are closed by determining the spectrum of defect bound-states in the Lee-Yang model.Comment: LaTeX, 24 pages, 34 eps figure
