Generalised integrable - and -deformations and their relation

Abstract

We construct two-parameter families of integrable -deformations of two-dimensional field theories. These interpolate between a CFT (a WZW/gauged WZW model) and the non-Abelian T-dual of a principal chiral model on a group/symmetric coset space. In examples based on the WZW model and the exact coset CFT, we show that these deformations are related to bi-Yang-Baxter generalisations of -deformations via Poisson-Lie T-duality and analytic continuation. We illustrate the quantum behaviour of our models under RG flow. As a byproduct we demonstrate that the bi-Yang-Baxter -model for a general group is one-loop renormalisable.
