BOSONIC SUPERCONFORMAL AFFINE TODA THEORY: EXCHANGE ALGEBRA AND DRESSING SYMMETRY

We propose and investigate a new conformal invariant integrable field theory called bosonic superconformal affine Toda theory. This theory can be viewed either as the affine generalization of the so-called bosonic superconformal Toda theory studied by the authors sometime earlier, or as the generalization to the case of half-integer conformal weights of the conformal affine Toda theory, and can also be obtained from the Hamiltonian reduction of WZNW theory (with an affine WZNW group). The fundamental Poisson stracture is established in terms of the classical r matrix. Then the exchange algebra for the chiral vectors is obtained as well as the reconstruction formula for the classical solutions. The dressing transformations of the fundamental fields are found explicitly, and the Poisson-Lie structure of the dressing group is also constructed with the aid of classical exchange algebras, which turns out to be the semiclassical limit of the quantum affine group. The conformal breaking orbit of the model is also studied, which is called bosonic super loop Toda theory in the context. In addition, the quantum exchange relation and quantum group symmetry are discussed briefly.
