Abstract: (Elsevier)
The 2d principal models without boundaries have G×G symmetry. The already known integrable boundaries have either H×H or GD symmetries, where H is such a subgroup of G for which G/H is a symmetric space while GD is the diagonal subgroup of G×G . These boundary conditions have a common feature: they do not contain free parameters. We have found new integrable boundary conditions for which the remaining symmetry groups are either G×H or H×G and they contain one free parameter. The related boundary monodromy matrices are also described.
