introduction

  • energy perturbation [Kau49], [MTW77]
    • related to A1
    • Ising field theory
  • magnetic perturbation[Zam89]
    • related to E8

 

 

Ising field theory

  • the continuum limit of the Ising model is made to look like a field theory only through the application of a certain transformation (Jordan-Winger)
    • "kink" states (boundaries between regions of differing spin) = basic objects of the theory
    • called quasiparticle
  •  

 

 

history

  • Soon after Zamolodchikov’s first paper [Zam] appeared,
  • Fateev and Zamolodchikov conjectured in [FZ90] that
    • if you take a minimal model CFT constructed from a compact Lie algebra g via the coset construction and perturb it in a particular way, then you obtain the affine Toda field theory (ATFT) associated with g, which is an integrable field theory.
    • This was confirmed in [EY] and [HoM].
  • If you do this with g = E8, you arrive at the conjectured integrable field theory investigated by Zamolodchikov and described in the previous paragraph.
  • That is, if we take the E8 ATFT as a starting point, then the assumptions (Z1)–(Z4) become deductions.
