Deriving the Quantum Spectral Curve II: T-system and QSC

Andrea Cavaglià, Davide Polvara, Nicolò Primi +2

We complete the systematic derivation of the Quantum Spectral Curve (QSC) for strings on with pure Ramond--Ramond (RR) flux, buildin…

Deriving the Quantum Spectral Curve I: Y-system and discontinuity relations

Andrea Cavaglià, Davide Polvara, Nicolò Primi +2

The mirror Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) describes the spectrum of superstrings supported by a mixture of Ramond-Ramond (RR) and…

Relativistic limit on the string worldsheet

Emanuele Maria Cattaneo, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

We study the relativistic limit of the worldsheet S matrix of strings in the presence of mixed Ramond-Ramond (RR) and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-S…

Dressing Factors and Mirror Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz for mixed-flux AdS3/CFT2

Sergey Frolov, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

We complete the derivation of the dressing factors for the S matrix with mixed Ramond--Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-Schwarz flux, in the "string" and…

Exchange relations and crossing

Sergey Frolov, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

We discuss the scattering matrix of two-dimensional integrable QFTs whose fields obey non-trivial exchange relations. We show that crossing equations for such models have to be mod…

Thermodynamics of integrable N=2 theories, squared

Xavier Kervyn, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

In arXiv:2306.17553 a new supersymmetric integrable QFT was constructed from the relativistic limit of the worlsdheet theory of AdS ST superstrings with m…

Massive dressing factors for mixed-flux AdS/CFT

Sergey Frolov, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

We follow up on our proposal for dressing factors for the mixed-flux background presented in arXiv:2402.11732. We discuss in detail the analytic propert…

One-loop integrability with shifting masses

Matheus Fabri, Davide Polvara

We investigate the perturbative integrability of two-dimensional massive quantum field theories with polynomial-like interactions and show that any theory of such class which is pu…

One-loop elastic amplitudes from tree-level elasticity in 2d

Matheus Fabri, Davide Polvara

In this paper we extend the study initiated in arXiv:2302.04709v2 [hep-th] to the computation of one-loop elastic amplitudes. We consider 1+1 dimensional massive bosonic Lagrangian…

Dressing Factors for Mixed-Flux Superstrings

Sergey Frolov, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

We propose the dressing factors for the scattering of massive particles on the worldsheet of mixed-flux superstrings, in the string and mirror kinematic…

From tree- to loop-simplicity in affine Toda theories II: higher-order poles and cut decompositions

Patrick Dorey, Davide Polvara

Recently we showed how, in two-dimensional scalar theories, one-loop threshold diagrams can be cut into the product of one or more tree-level diagrams arXiv:2206.09368. Using this…

On the worldsheet S matrix of the AdS3/CFT2 mixed-flux mirror model

Nicola Baglioni, Davide Polvara, Andrea Pone +1

String on backgrounds are known to be classically integrable in the presence of a mixture of Ramond-Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-Schwarz fluxes. It is…

On mixed-flux worldsheet scattering in AdS3/CFT2

Sergey Frolov, Davide Polvara, Alessandro Sfondrini

Strings on AdS3xS3xT4 with mixed Ramond-Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-Schwarz flux are known to be classically integrable. This is a crucial property of this model, which cannot b…

One-loop inelastic amplitudes from tree-level elasticity in 2d

Davide Polvara

We investigate the perturbative integrability of different quantum field theories in 1+1 dimensions at one loop. Starting from massive bosonic Lagrangians with polynomial-like pote…

From tree- to loop-simplicity in affine Toda theories I: Landau singularities and their subleading coefficients

Patrick Dorey, Davide Polvara

Various features of the even order poles appearing in the S-matrices of simply-laced affine Toda field theories are analysed in some detail. In particular, the coefficients of firs…

Tree level integrability in 2d quantum field theories and affine Toda models

Patrick Dorey, Davide Polvara

We investigate the perturbative integrability of massive (1+1)-dimensional bosonic quantum field theories, focusing on the conditions for them to have a purely elastic S-matrix, wi…

Quantum anomalies in A^{(1)}_r Toda theories with defects

Silvia Penati, Davide Polvara

We study quantum integrability of affine Toda theories with a line of defect. In particular, we focus on the problem of constructing quantum higher-spin conserved currents in model…
