Bound state solution of the grassmannian nonlinear sigma model with fermions

We construct the S-matrix for bound state (gauge-invariant) scattering for nonlinear sigma models defined on the manifold SU(n) S(U(p)⊗U(n-p)) with fermions. It is not possible to compute gauge non-singlet matrix elements. In the present language, constraints from higher conservation laws determine the bound state solution. An alternative derivation is also presented. © 1988.

Connection between the affine and conformal affine Toda models and their Hirota solution

It is shown that the affine Toda models (AT) constitute a gauge fixed version of the conformal affine Toda model (CAT). This result enables one to map every solution of the AT models into an infinite number of solutions of the corresponding CAT models, each one associated to a point of the orbit of the conformal group. The Hirota τ-functions are introduced and soliton solutions for the AT and CAT models associated to SL̂ (r+1) and SP̂ (r) are constructed.

Exact solution for a three-dimensional three-body problem with harmonic interactions

The three-dimensional three-body problem with non-equal masses interacting through pairwise harmonic forces of non-equal strengths is analysed. It is shown that the Jacobi coordinates per se do not decouple this problem but lead to the problem of two coupled three-dimensional harmonic oscillators which becomes exactly soluble through the use of an additional coordinate set.
