Abstract

We invent a method that exploits the geometry in the space of couplings and the known all-loop effective action, in order to calculate the exact in the couplings anomalous dimensions of composite operators for a wide class of integrable σ-models. These involve both self and mutually interacting current algebra theories. We work out the details for important classes of such operators. In particular, we consider the operators built solely from an arbitrary number of currents of the same chirality, the composite operators which factorize into a chiral and an anti-chiral part, as well as those made up of three currents of mixed chirality. Remarkably enough, the anomalous dimensions of the former two sets of operators turn out to vanish. In our approach, loop computations are completely avoided.
