Abstract: A bstract We consider the Courant-Hilbert (CH) construction of integrable deformations of a two-dimensional principal chiral model (2D PCM) in the context of the four-dimensional Chern-Simons (4D CS) theory. According to this construction, an integrable deformation of 2D PCM is characterized by a boundary function. As a result, the master formula obtained from the 4D CS theory should be corrected by the trace of the energy-momentum tensor so as to support the CH construction. We present some examples of deformation including the $$T\overline{T }$$ -deformation, the root $$T\overline{T }$$ -deformation, the two-parameter mixed deformation, and a logarithmic deformation. Finally, we discuss some generalizations and potential applications of this CH construction.
