A New RSOS Restriction of the Zhiber-Mikhailov-Shabat Model and $\Phi_{(1,5)}$ Perturbations of Nonunitary Minimal Models

Abstract

The RSOS restriction of the Zhiber-Mikhailov-Shabat (ZMS) model is investigated. It is shown that in addition to the usual RSOS restriction, corresponding to $\Phi_{(1,2)}$ and $\Phi_{(2,1)}$ perturbations of minimal CFT, there is another one which yields $\Phi_{(1,5)}$ perturbations of non-unitary minimal models. The new RSOS restriction is carried out and the particular case of the minimal models ${\cal M}_{(3,10)}$, ${\cal M}_{(3,14)}$ and ${\cal M}_{(3,16)}$ is discussed in detail. In the first two cases, while the mass spectra of the two RSOS restrictions are the same, the bootstrap systems and the detailed amplitudes are different. In the third case, even the spectra of the two RSOS restrictions are different. In addition, for ${\cal M}_{(3,10)}$ an interpretation in terms of the tensor product of two copies of ${\cal M}_{(2,5)}$ is given.
