Boundary reflection matrices of massive -perturbed unitary minimal models
arXiv:2509.04286 · doi:10.1007/JHEP12(2025)176
Abstract
We propose explicit expressions for the boundary reflection matrices of the series of massive scattering theories, obtained by perturbing the unitary minimal models with boundary conditions with both bulk and boundary operators. We identify the vacua that live on the boundary with the allowed edges of the conformal boundary conditions of the Andrews-Baxter-Forrester model. The boundary reflection matrices are then ``direct sums'' of certain pairs of Behrend-Pearce solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation and are consistent with the boundary bootstrap and the recently-introduced crossing, as well as the (height-reversal), Kac table and non-invertible symmetries.
arXiv commentLatex, 52 pages, 13 figures, v2: clarified the notion of boundary subsets and added an Appendix on the definition of ABF lattice models
