A bstractWe investigate the integrable Yang-Baxter deformation of the 2d Principal Chiral Model with a Wess-Zumino term. For arbitrary groups, the one-loop β-functions are calculated and display a surprising connection between classical and quantum physics: the classical integrability condition is necessary to prevent new couplings being generated by renormalisation. We show these theories admit an elegant realisation of Poisson-Lie T-duality acting as a simple inversion of coupling constants…

Yang–Baxter deformations of the principal chiral model plus Wess–Zumino term

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) classical Yang–Baxter…

Sigma model on a squashed sphere with a Wess-Zumino term

A class of two-dimensional sigma models interpolating between $CP^1$ and the $SU(2)$ principal chiral model is discussed. We add the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten term and examine the renormalization…

Yang-Baxter deformations beyond coset spaces (a slick way to do TsT)

A bstractYang-Baxter string sigma-models provide a systematic way to deform coset geometries, such as AdSp × Sp, while retaining the σ-model integrability. It has been shown that the Yang-Baxter…

D-branes in λ-deformations

A bstractWe show that the geometric interpretation of D-branes in WZW models as twisted conjugacy classes persists in the λ-deformed theory. We obtain such configurations by demanding that a…

Doubled aspects of generalised dualities and integrable deformations

A bstractThe worldsheet theories that describe Poisson-Lie T-dualisable σ-models on group manifolds as well as integrable η, λ and β-deformations provide examples of ℰ-models. Here we show how such…
