Thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and form factors for the homogeneous sine-Gordon models

We provide a brief characterization of the main features of the homogeneous sine-Gordon models and discuss a general construction principle for colour valued S-matrices, associated to a pair of simply laced Lie algebras, which contain the homogeneous sine-Gordon models as a subclass. We give a brief introduction to the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and the form factor approach and discuss explicit solutions for both methods related to the homogeneous Sine-Gordon models and its generalization.
