| Abstract: |
The scattering of charged solitons in the complex sine-Gordon field theory is investigated. An exact factorizable S-matrix for the theory is proposed when the renormalized coupling constant takes the values $\lambda~{2}_{R}=4\pi/k$ for any integer $k>1$: the minimal S-matrix associated with the Lie algebra $a_{k-1}$. It is shown that the proposed S-matrix reproduces the leading semiclassical behaviour of all amplitudes in the theory and is the minimal S-matrix which is consistent with the semiclassical spectrum of the model. The results are completely consistent with the description of the complex sine-Gordon theory as the SU$(2)/{\rm U}(1)$ coset model at level $k$ perturbed by its first thermal |
