Mirror symmetry for the Kazama-Suzuki models
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the N = 2 coset models in their formulation as supersymmetric gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. A model based on the coset G/H is invariant under a symmetry group isomorphic to ZZk+Q, where k is the level of the model and Q is the dual Address after September 1, 1994: Department of Physics, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511 Coxeter number of G. Using a duality-like relationship, we show that the ZZm orbifold of the vectorially gauged model and the ZZm̃ orbifold of the axially gauged model are each others mirror partners when mm̃ = k +Q.

World-sheet aspects of mirror symmetry
The first half of this talk is a non-technical discussion of some general aspects of string theory, in particular the problem of compactification. We also give an introduction to mirror symmetry. The second half is a brief account of two recent papers on this subject; one by the author on mirror symmetry for Kazama-Suzuki models and one by P. Berglund and the author on a search for possible mir...
متن کاملDuality of the Fermionic 2d Black Hole and N = 2 Liouville Theory as Mirror Symmetry
We prove the equivalence of the SL(2,R)/U(1) Kazama-Suzuki model, which is a fermionic generalization of the 2d Black Hole, and N = 2 Liouville theory. We show that this duality is an example of mirror symmetry. The essential part of the derivation is to realize the fermionic 2d Black Hole as the low energy limit of a gauged linear sigma-model. Liouville theory is obtained by dualizing the char...
متن کاملComments on D-branes in Kazama-Suzuki models and Landau-Ginzburg theories
We study D-branes in Kazama-Suzuki models by means of the boundary state description. We can identify the boundary states of Kazama-Suzuki models with the solitons in N = 2 Landau-Ginzburg theories. We also propose a geometrical interpretation of the boundary states in Kazama-Suzuki models.
متن کاملSome General Aspects of Coset Models and Topological Kazama-Suzuki Models
We study global aspects of N = 2 Kazama-Suzuki coset models by investigating topological G/H Kazama-Suzuki models in a Lagrangian framework based on gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. To that end, we first generalize Witten’s analysis of the holomorphic factorization of bosonic G/H models to models with N = 1 and N = 2 supersymmetry, in the course of which we also find some new anomaly-free and ...
متن کاملThe large level limit of Kazama - Suzuki models
superconformal Wn+1 minimal models that appear in the context of the supersymmetric higher-spin AdS3/CFT2 duality. These models are constructed as Kazama-Suzuki coset models of the form SU(n+1)/U(n). We determine a family of boundary conditions in the limit theories, and use the modular bootstrap to obtain the full bulk spectrum of N = 2 super-Wn+1 primaries in the theory. We also confirm the i...
