The Magic Renormalisability of Affine Gaudin Models

Falk Hassler, Sylvain Lacroix, Benoit Vicedo

We study the renormalisation of a large class of integrable -models obtained in the framework of affine Gaudin models. They are characterised by a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{…

On a class of conformal -models and their chiral Poisson algebras

Sylvain Lacroix

In this paper, we study conformal points among the class of -models. The latter are -models formulated in terms of a current Poisson algebra, whose Lie-theoretic de…

Integrable sigma models at RG fixed points: quantisation as affine Gaudin models

Gleb A. Kotousov, Sylvain Lacroix, Jörg Teschner

The goal of this paper is to make first steps towards the quantisation of integrable non-linear sigma models using the formalism of affine Gaudin models, by approaching these theor…

Gaudin Models and Multipoint Conformal Blocks III: Comb channel coordinates and OPE factorisation

Ilija Buric, Sylvain Lacroix, Jeremy A. Mann +2

We continue the exploration of multipoint scalar comb channel blocks for conformal field theories in 3D and 4D. The central goal here is to construct novel comb channel cross ratio…

4-dimensional Chern-Simons theory and integrable field theories

Sylvain Lacroix

These lecture notes concern the semi-holomorphic 4d Chern-Simons theory and its applications to classical integrable field theories in 2d and in particular integrable sigma-models.…

Integrable -Models, 4d Chern-Simons Theory and Affine Gaudin Models. I. Lagrangian Aspects

Sylvain Lacroix, Benoit Vicedo

We construct the actions of a very broad family of 2d integrable -models. Our starting point is a universal 2d action obtained in [arXiv:2008.01829] using the framework of Coste…

Yang-Baxter deformations of the Principal Chiral Model plus Wess-Zumino term

B. Hoare, S. Lacroix

A large class of integrable deformations of the Principal Chiral Model, known as the Yang-Baxter deformations, are governed by skew-symmetric R-matrices solving the (modified) clas…

Ultralocal Lax connection for para-complex -cosets

Francois Delduc, Takashi Kameyama, Sylvain Lacroix +2

We consider -models on para-complex -cosets, which are analogues of those on complex homogeneous target spaces considered recently by D. Bykov. For these models, w…

A unifying 2d action for integrable -models from 4d Chern-Simons theory

Francois Delduc, Sylvain Lacroix, Marc Magro +1

In the approach recently proposed by K. Costello and M. Yamazaki, which is based on a four-dimensional variant of Chern-Simons theory, we derive a simple and unifying two-dimension…
