We derive non-abelian Toda field theories (NATFTs) from a 4d Chern-Simons (CS) theory with two order defects by employing a certain asymptotic boundary condition. The 4d CS theory is characterized by a meromorphic 1-form $\omega$\,. We adopt $\omega$ with two simple poles and no zeros, and each of the order defects is located at each pole. As a result, an anisotropy parameter $\beta^2$ can be identified with the distance between the two defects. As examples, we can derive the (complex) sine-Gordon model and the Liouville theory.

  1. Time-Dependent Integrability from Gauge Theory, I

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 7.5

    Spacetime-dependent 4d Chern-Simons theory generates time-dependent integrable field theories whose allowed time dependence coincides with one-loop RG flow while preserving Lax integrability.

  2. Courant-Hilbert deformations of Yang-Baxter sigma models

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0

    Yang-Baxter and Courant-Hilbert deformations combine inside 4D Chern-Simons theory: the corrected action equals the master Lagrangian plus half the trace of the energy-momentum tensor.
