Integrable Quantum Field Theory and Statistical Mechanics.

Gesualdo Delfino



Abstract

It emerged over the last years that a large class of interacting quantum field theories in two dimensions can be solved exactly. On the statistical mechanical side this fact leads to a series of new results for the scaling limit of the lattice models, the Ising model in a magnetic field providing the best known example. We will explain the main ideas underlying this approach and mention some of the results obtained so far.
