On infinitesimal bäcklund transformations and generalized symmetries of the nonlinear σ-model

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

The nonlinear σ-model is shown to possess and infinite number of generalized symmetries and a relationship between symmetries and conservation laws of the model is established.

Riassunto

Si dimostra che il modello σ non lineare possiede un numero infinito di simmetrie generalizzate ed inoltre si stabilisce una relazione tra simmetrie e leggi di conservazione del modello.
