We propose a class of purely elastic scattering theories generalising the staircase model of Al. B. Zamolodchikov, based on the affine Toda field theories for simply-laced Lie algebras g=A, D, E at suitable complex values of their coupling constants. Considering their Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equations, we give analytic arguments in support of a conjectured renormalisation group flow visiting the neighbourhood of each Wg minimal model in turn.

In the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz approach to 2D integrable, ADE-related quantum field theories, one derives a set of algebraic functional equations (a Y system) which play a prominent role. This set of equations is mapped onto the problem of finding finite triangulations of certain 3D manifolds. This mapping allows us to find a general explanation of the periodicity of the Y system. For the AN related theories, and more generally for the various restrictions of the fractionally supersymmetric sine—Gordon models, we find an explicit, surprisingly simple solution of such functional equations in terms of a single unknown function of the rapidity. The recently found dilogarithm functional equations associated to the Y system simply express the invariance of the volume of a manifold for deformations of its triangulations.

The problem of the gauge hierarchy is brought up in a hypercomplex scheme for a [Formula: see text] field theory; in such a scheme, a compact gauge group is deformed through a [Formula: see text]-parameter that varies along a noncompact internal direction, transverse to the [Formula: see text] compact one, and thus an additional [Formula: see text] gauge symmetry is incorporated. This transverse direction can be understood as an extra internal dimension, which will control the spontaneous symmetry breakdown, and will allow us to establish a mass hierarchy. In this mechanism, there is no brane separation to be estabilized as in the braneworld paradigm, however, a different kind of fine-tuning is needed in order to generate the wished electroweak/Planck hierarchy. By analyzing the effective self-interactions and mass terms of the theory, an interesting duality is revealed between the real and hybrid parts of the effective potential. This duality relates the weak and strong self-interaction regimes of the theory, due to the fact that both mass terms and self-coupling constants appear as one-parameter flows in [Formula: see text]. Additionally, the [Formula: see text]-deformation will establish a flow for the electromagnetic coupling that mimics the renormalization group flow for the charge in QED.

We show that certain vanishing couplings in the [Formula: see text] affine Toda field theories remain vanishing even after higher-order corrections are included. This is a requisite property for the Lagrangian formulation of the theory. We develop a new perturbative formulation and treat affine Toda field theories as a massless theory with exponential interaction terms. We show that the nonrenormalization comes from the Dynkin automorphism of the Lie algebra associated with these theories. A charge balance condition plays an important role in our scheme. The all-order nonrenormalization of vanishing couplings in [Formula: see text] affine Toda field theory is also proved in a standard massive scheme.

We investigate the question of how the knowledge of sufficiently many local conservation laws for a model can be used to solve it. We show that for models where the conservation laws can be written in one-sided forms, [Formula: see text] like the problem can always be reduced to solving a closed system of ordinary differential equations. We investigate the A1, A2 and B2 Toda field theories in considerable detail from this viewpoint. One of our findings is that there is in each case a transformation group intrinsic to the model. This group is built on a specific real form of the Lie algebra used to label the Toda field theory. It is the group of field transformations which leaves the conserved densities invariant.

We demonstrate that the generalization of the Coleman–Thun mechanism may be applied to the situation where one considers scattering processes in 1 + 1 dimensions in the presence of reflecting boundaries. For affine Toda field theories we find that the binding energies of the bound states are always half the sum over a set of masses having the same color with respect to the bicoloration of the Dynkin diagram. For the case of E6 affine Toda field theory we compute explicitly the spectrum of all higher boundary bound states. The complete set of states constitutes a closed bootstrap.

We present perturbative calculations for the Affine Toda Field Theory (ATFT) S-matrices to the second order in the coupling constants for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in general, to the fourth order for [Formula: see text] theory as well as to the sixth order for [Formula: see text] theory. Conventional Feynman–Dyson calculation method and the dispersion approach are used to calculate the complete form of the perturbation amplitudes in contrast to the pole residues in previous papers. The results agree with those S-matrices obtained in the S-matrix approach, namely those based on analyticity, unitarity, crossing and bootstrap equation.

Perturbative deformations of symmetry structures on noncommutative spaces are studied in view of noncommutative quantum field theories. The rigidity of enveloping algebras of semisimple Lie algebras with respect to formal deformations is reviewed in the context of star products. It is shown that rigidity of symmetry algebras extends to rigidity of the action of the symmetry on the space. This implies that the noncommutative spaces considered can be realized as star products by particular ordering prescriptions which are compatible with the symmetry. These symmetry preserving ordering prescriptions are calculated for the quantum plane and four-dimensional quantum Euclidean space. The result can be used to construct invariant Lagrangians for quantum field theory on noncommutative spaces with a deformed symmetry.
