Description
In two dimensions, we find a construction for an SU(N) quark field in terms of N real Bose fields. Hence, equivalence is shown between certain massive SU(N) Thirring models and systems of quantum sine-Gordon-like equations. From the point of view of the bosons, the ''soliton-quark'' SU(N) is topological. To minimize guesswork in the development of such correspondences, we employ a systematic blend of Mandelstam's operator approach with the interaction picture
